Man was never meant to be this fucked. Some wires have gone wrong somewhere and the effect is just never fading off!!! If there was a planet fucked and it got fucked on by a bigger fucked planet... I would still be more fucked than that.

Is the glass half empty or half full?
Many people aren't optomistic enough these days, maybe its because there isn't as much to be optomistic about these days. I believe in almost any situation a positive light can be shed onto it. And maybe it is human nature but people dwell on negative situations longer than they hold a positive feeling for.
I am a very optomistic and postive person. Even in the worst situations I can find humour or a positive side.
It has actually been proven that optomistic people outlive and are healthier in general than pessimistic people. It's sort of obvious though (this is not a random 82.422% of on the spot facts).

Life
Recently, I beleive I have gotten a better grip on this whole... life thing. I have had my what I thought were really high points in my life which were during my relationships, I have had my really down periods in life where I have felt like I didn't fit in anywhere apart from with a group of other social misfits who resort to drugs to somehow make life seem like its worth living. But after my recent trip to Europe, I think I understand things a little clearer now.
Life is there to be lived, and there are certain stages of your life that shouldn't be wasted. For instance, dont spend your early 20's stuck at home with no money because your paying off a morgage. Woopdee doo when you're 40 you'll own your own home, and you'd have made 1000's of dollars profit so you can buy a nicer home. But life isn't always about money, its about experiences, like my quote. If I had the choice of experiencing either traveling around Europe for some of the best two months of my life, meeting great people, making lifetime friends, seeing different cultures and amazing new cities... or scraping along on the bones of my arse just so I can own a heap of bricks in 20 years, I know which one i would choose.
Don't waste life, live everyday to it's fullest. Which is much different than saying live everyday like its your last. You need common sense to allow you to make the most of life without sacrificing happiness or quality of life down the track. I believe that life can be enjoyed up to any age.
There are a few basic rules that will help if not ensure living a happy, fulfilled life.
1. You must be optomistic
2. You must have morals
3. You must be kind, patient and forgiving
I believe if a person can be at least all those things, they will lead a fruitful and meaningful life.

Update almost 12 months later
Wow, its been almost a year since my last post. Right, back to it I guess. I have in fact, learnt much in the last year, but with regards to what I have previously written, I stand by my comments... mostly.
I have a new quote for you though:
Life is but a journey of experiences, how we use those experiences determines how we live our lives.
