No, it was a while back. I 'dropped off' after I had a stroke and lost a lot of memory. Nobody said life was easy. But it's the only one we get, so we do the best we can.

Oh, well shit, that’s even worse. But thankfully, you are still/back with us, and hopefully recovering and getting along alright.

If you spend time thinking about the past and mistakes you have made (real or imagined), it will depress you. If you spend time thinking about the future and what can go wrong, it will make you anxious. You have the ability to choose what you think about.
I found out that a woman I was with for 13 years died recently. It hit me really hard and I found myself thinking if only I had done x, then y would have happened. The past is past, the future isn't written. You only have now and you get to make it what you want it to be. |

That whole 'stoic' mindset mentioned above helps me as well. On the plus side, I quit smoking 2 packs a day - but gained 100 lbs in the process. I've knuckled down and lost 95 lbs and pretty close to my weight loss goal + still breathing. COPD from the cigs - but the weight loss really helped with this nonsense. I'm probably getting along better than I deserve to. I try to pass 'good vibes' along when I can. Do a good deed, don't look for a 'payback'. Just do the right thing - because it's the right thing. Teach a kid to fly fish, we need more flyfishermen. Teach someone to shoot a pistol, a .22 rifle. We need more folks not afraid of gangbangers because we shoot better than those yokels do. Show someone how to get a knife 'razor sharp'. Nobody bothers to do that sort of thing these days, but a dull knife is still a danger to all of us. https://www.webmd.com/lung/copd/ss/s...REb2a3JM4zX27Y https://dailystoic.com/

Try an ice cream sandwich while fapping
It'd be pretty hard to feel down with that combo. |
