Does life ever get easier for good people

It tends to but not always overnight...and "bad things happen to good people" sometimes.

Hang in there and try to keep making the right decisions and focusing on where you want to be.

Maybe yes, and maybe no. There is no real cosmic action that will say eventually you will get your just deserts or anything for your actions in the end. However being yourself even when faced with all that will come before you will eventually show you that it was worth it. Least you wont have any regret for living your own life.

It'll get better, maybe not right away but it will. Remember tomorrow is another day.

No.MrLions

let me translate that into spanish....no

you can't avoid everything but being a good person will earn you respect and a backup from people when you need them, so I think yes, it does get better for "good" people.XilePrincess

I dunt know what im doing with my life, i just know its been pretty crappy for a while and wondering if it will ever get better. i know i dont deserve this.-theCHUD-

Just work hard and make sure you don't end it all. Life is filled with juicy stuff all along the way. You go through ups and downs and even in the downs there are ups. People get lonely this time of year. It happens.

That's one sad panda(your sig). Sorry I couldn't resist. Anyways there was a point to this double post. I was gonna say. You should check if you're clinically depressed. Go to a therapist or something. I'm not saying get medication that's up to you but sometimes when you get in a slump it's really really hard to get out. Maybe, just maybe it'll do you some good to talk to someone.

Most people don't deserve what happens to them. And even if you have a lie of luxury, you're still gonna die (probably in a more painful manner than the murderer/rapist who is on death row).

So...life can suck and it can not suck. Death can suck and it can not suck. But you're going to live and you're going to die, and the concept of "fairness" doesn't really apply at all.

Best thing you can do is to get rid of any sense that you're ENTITLED to a good life or a good death. In most cases I would wager that how good someone's life or death is has VERY little to do with how good or bad those people were. Things happen, you'll probably die in pain and/or alone, and that's that. But as far as DESERVING a good life or a good death, that's the silliest fairy tale that was ever fabricated. To suggest that ANYONE deserves such a thing is to suggest that the universe actually cares about YOU. Which is the most egotistical self-centered concept since the belief that god only likes my race or that everything in the cosmos revolves around the Earth.

Unfortunately for a lot of good people, life can be hard. While many not so good enjoy life with riches beyond peoples imagination. That's how the world is. I guess the best thing I can say is to take action if life is bringing you down.

I can't say what the future might hold, but I can say that it won't get any better if you become a bad person.GabuEx

The dark side, I can feel it! Arghh :twisted:

Depends on one's definition of "enjoy". I would personally be skeptical of the idea that people who are a-holes to everyone in life are happy in the true sense of the word.

It's all in the mind. brandeyep

you can always flip it, put your own twist to it. It may not represent the truth entirely, but it makes life easier.

I went through a phase where I was trying so hard to be a good person and a nice and everything and for some reason everybody hated me and I got really miserable and wanted to kill myself and then I realized that I could only be myself.

I have one strong piece of advise for you buddy, you have to learn to stand up for yourself.

If you let people push you around, your life is going to be HELL. I was there, dude. It was ****ing miserable.

You have to stand up for yourself and sometimes be mean if you need to be. Actually, there'll be times where you'll almost certainly be mean. Being a good person 100% of the time is extremely hard and extremely emotionally demanding. I fear you'll develop a process of mental self-annihilation. If people treat you like crap, you're not doing yourself nor them a favor by letting them get away with it.

If someone hits you, you hit them back. If you turn the cheek, your life is going to be very VERY hard.

Here it is:

You have to stand up for yourself or it just might kill you. It could very well destroy you, like it almost did me. People can be absolute **** sometimes and if someone acts that way to you, you have to show them the "appropriate" response. In other words, if someone's being a cock ass, make their mouth bleed because they deserve it. I'm beating a dead horse, but it's crucial and if you try to carry too heavy a cross, you'll sometimes want to end your life with feelings of guilt that you don't deserve to carry.

I really don't want you to carry this cross, dude. You need to show some self-respect.
