    I think we all get back what we put out there.

    So all the sh** you endured from your family was because you put that out there to them? Really?

  • For me there is no short or long end of the stick. I live life one day at a time. If something good happens (long end of the stick according to you) I enjoy the moment and share it with others if the circumstances allow it. If something bad happens (short end of the stick according to you) I deal with it, and move on. Highs and lows, good times and bad times are all part of life. However, something that many people have to realize is that we need to treat others the way we want to be treated. If we treat people badly, many times it will come back and bite you. If you treat others with kindness and a certain amount of respect, that too will, at times, come back around to you. People need to stop whining, moaning, complaining, and throwing adolescent fits when something doesn't go their way. Deal with life.
