Why my life sucks

Your life sucks, and you know it.

I am not here to make you feel worse than you already are, but to explain why your life is this way, and I will offer a solution to this problem.

Why your life sucks

There are innumerable beautiful things in life, no doubt about that. There are innumerable ugly things in life, no doubt about that too.

When we are living in this world, we often comfort ourselves by saying if you get through the ugly, then you can enjoy the beautiful.

Bollocks!!

You don’t get better off in that way. If 50% of your life is ugly and 50% beautiful, you would be SAD.

Arthur Schopenhauer said in The Wisdom of Life and Studies in Pessimism that a good life is not about maximising your “happy elements”, but minimising your “sad elements”.

Obviously, this is a value judgement, so take this with a grain of salt.

You will never be happy if you keep allowing “things that make you sad” make you sad.

To make your life not suck

I don’t expect you to just get rid of the things that make you sad, that is just impractical.

You might be sad because your parents often belittle you for your grades or career…
