Message: Hello everyone, I am a 29 year old (turning 30)who has achieved nothing in life to date. All the negative things that people have said since my arrival in this hell hole we call life has come true. I have been a long time substance abuser of marijuana because of the low self esteem I am cursed with. I have no life savings to date, i live paycheck to paycheck, have a dead end job, debts piled up to my neck, who can possibly have it worst than me? How can anything get better now? Is there a light at the end of the tunnel for me? Is it time for me to take the easy way out?

NO ONE is ever hope-less, or alone. There is always HOPE no matter how dim our lives appear to be. We all have many people, angels, and guides in our lives that support and love us for who we are, unconditionally, and not for what we have. Also, no one person has the power to make you feel helpless, lost, or inferrior unless you let them.
Though it may sound like you have led a challenging life (as many of us have), and you may have made some choices that have led you to your current situation (as many of us have), know that there is always hope...for EVERYONE. Though we may not fully understand the meaning behind our situations, remember that everything does happen for a reason and that all experiences are a life-lesson. The good news is that you have the ability to create the life that you want for yourself, NOW.
You can start today and turn your life around...by giving yourself positive affirmations: i.e ... I Love, trust, and forgive myself. I am a wonderful person and I deserve the best that life has to offer. I am listening to what my heart is telling me. I will attract wonderful experiences in my life. I will get the perfect job. I will make positive life choices for myself. etc., etc.
If you ever find yourself saying something negative, just cancel it out simply by saying, "Cancel, cancel, cancel." It's the univeral / magic number, 3. If someone else says something negative to, toward, or about you...you have the power to forgive and let go...and simply just walk away...as getting angry, getting back, and holding on serves no purpose for anyone involved. Live your life by example and everyone will see what a great being of light you truely are.
It's all about taking back your power and loving yourself.
As Above
So Below

Reply: Starseed is right Take back your power and start right now. If there is something in your life that you are not happy with Change it only you can. If you want a better job Find it, only you can, if you want higher self esteem work on it , Only you can. You are responsible for you, your happiness your success your learning, all are in your power to have but only You can do it and you CAN do it Hopefull One. For a start like Star said be positive and change that name you are using.
One on my friend was feeling exactly the same as you and was voicing his complaints to an elderly person. This elder put him in the car and drove to the local hospital and introduced him to an aquaintance of his. This young man had no legs and only one hand, the limbs being severed in an accident. The elder asked my friend if he thought his life was any worse than this young mans? My friend answered No, but! The elder said No Buts about it!! then the elder drove him to the cemetry and told him that he has a choice, to get off his Behind and live life and be the best that he can be and he was sure there were "a lot of souls in the cemetry that would love to trade places. So stop whining and get on with it!!!"
Harsh? maybe! but Oh So true!!!
Needless to say my friend is now cleaning up his life, spring cleaning those that are holding him back getting rid of the vices in his life that are crippling him and surging ahead to be the best that he can be. He can and is doing it.
So hopefull one think back to a good time and remember what your passion in life was and then step forward and begin living. Life is great if you just give it a chance
Love and Light
Helen

I feel your pain, I live pay check to pay check, bills piled up, no job but hey, I have been blessed in more ways then one, I am loved by our maker which is the most precious gift we could ask for. My favorite thing to say is "Don't sweat the small stuff" keep going straight ahead and live from now to now.
