O FFS............Life is what you make it
Don't like the chocolates, dont buy them, they will only make you fat and ill anyway

Life is for living, get on with it, sh1t happens, deeper sh1t happens, get on with it and live the life you have been given, DON'T bloody waste it as there is people out there who would love the chance of some extra time

Remember the Mint advert in the uk............. http://www.tellyads.com/show_movie.php?filename=TA0280

Choosing to live somewhere other than the place where we were born and raised only changes some of the external cirumstances... it's up to each of us to make the best of our lives.
bollox.

look of love only when they want to buy something, or have already bought something and are covering it up. from the kids, simply to avoid getting a good hiding when they have been caught out.

the dawn chorus, what a misnomer, nothing but a bloody din first thing in the morning when all you want is quiet.

sun going down just means one more shit day is just around the corner.

a glorious view is just an area waiting to be developed into low income housing for scumbags.

art, meh, most of that crap my dog could emulate with a brush tied to her tail.

Awww are you wearing your grumpy trousers Whatever makes people happy is a very personal choice - for me it was the morning after the fall from the horse - still in severe pain you have to drag yourself (more or less in my case on hands and knees) to check his water and food - and for the first time since I had him he came galloping down to meet me, stopped looked me straight in the eye and nickered softly, slowly walked up to me and put his head on my shoulder.

That might mean nothing to someone else but to me it meant everything (and to him it probably was the realisation that when I turn up he gets something to eat and some good old fashioned attention hahahahahaha)

That is so sweet, cant wait till you have the next expat meet up
For me its to see my kids faces so happy, to see our pup love the outdoor life and see his little stump wag (some nasty person cut his tail when he was a baby) to see the kids and dog play is special to us............

Everyday is about living, enjoy

I agree 100% - sometimes really shit things happen (and we've all had it) and you feel so down about everything. All it takes is that little buttont to be pressed (wherever it is on whoever - and shut up with the comments about buttons Butch i'm one step ahead of ya ) and it makes the bad shit bearable.

A bit like working in a customer service industry where you have nothing but crappy customers all day - yet the one that takes the time out to say thank you, you helped me out - completely wipes out all the negativity in a day.

i am feeling quite ill at the moment actually, there is plenty of bad news around for a reason, see posts above.

After reading your posts lately i would agree that your life is so sad that you would take that option, maybe worth giving that life to someone that could use it wisely
But then again BE gave me that ignore button and its the first time i have had to use it

if you have the ignore button why are you replying?
i'm not sure you can transplant life yet, has medicine really advanced that far?
keep trying, i am sure you will get the hang of irony eventually.
