Well, I'm not Jesus Christ. I don't pay back bad for good. I pay back good for good and bad for bad.
It's my rule of the thumb 👍!

It's the best way to live my friend. You don't treat someone like garbage and expect them to treat you like a king.

Exactly! It even gets on my nerves when those kind of people treat you like you are not worth anything and when you are returning the favor, they will start playing the victim card.

They are the kind of people whom I block out from my life with immediate effect and blacklist them from being able to connect with me online or through phone calls.

Yeah, there's always room for improvement every day of your life. I'm always kind of clueless about what to improve on as it seems everything in my life is on auto-pilot and my mother is smart with paperwork and making calls about important matters, so she always takes care of those. Since my brother is currently jobless, he does most of the housework, but he even did that when he had a full-time job. I'm a hard worker at work but kind of lazy at home.

I can't bear losing loved ones or seeing them suffer. That has been my greatest fear. I want to be able to help in every way I can. The thought of being powerless to help or protect them is unbearable.

I don't have fears of regret anymore because I overcame the challenge of rejection or it not happening, thus reducing disappointment to nil.
I also feared death when I was young. Now, I've come to accept it's a part of life.
Take me at anytime. I am prepared. My family knows what to do to get the investing accounts, life insurance (matures Jan. 2025, so knock on wood I make it at least 3 more months), and survivor's death benefit payments. And since we fully own a home, they will be alright. I am contempt with life now knowing they are well-taken care of if I gotta get out of here earlier than expected.

That's a good note you have here. I'm reading and at the same time having some goosebumps on me. I wish I will have this kind heart to death. Yeah, I haven't achieved all but I have been afraid of how things will be for me. I am getting by in terms of agreeing that death can happen anytime.

I think everybody that love his or her family will always have this in mind. I don't want my family to suffer, the number one reason that I am hustling to get a better life for all of us.

That's my soft spot. I feel very stressed and absolutely tensed when my loved ones needs help and I can't offer one to them at that moment.

The only thing I fear of death is how it will happen, but understand that the process can be long or slow, but it will end at some point. Therefore, I don't dwell on it.
Run over? Instant. Cancer? Some pain, but eventually it goes away.

I also fear health concerns, especially if it's hereditary. So, try to take very good care of my health. My family are known with heart attacks.

If everything is working well as they are supposed to at home, you don't have anything else to worry about I would say. A lot of people would want to have your life 😂

You felt tensed that you can't help out which I know isn't a bad thing. The more reason we need to stay alive and more for the comfortability of our loved ones.

Nothing is delighted about death. I never wanted run over, it's a very painful death. Cancer might give you times and moments that you can used to your fulfillment. A friend of mine said he will love to die in his bedroom.

That would be best, in sleep.
But, I've accepted it comes how it comes and it's over relatively quickly in comparison to your total lifespan.

I feel that lol but not matter what. I'll always chase my dreams. The only way is up. Hard work beats talent every time.

I agree. Someone who's talented can be lazy and all that talent goes to waste. But when you're hard working, there's no limit to what you can do.

You can only fail so many times before you find your grind and succeed 💯
Fail up. Don't fail out.

It's when you quit that you have finally failed. This is why quitting is the last thing that will be available for me. I can take a time off but never quit.

It's okay to quit, but it's not OK to quit staying driven.
You need to know when to take the L to chase the W.

I agree. When you quit staying driven, nothing else will appeal to you when it comes to giving your best to doing it. At this point, you might start feeling depressed.

I am yet to accept how I will die and I know it's good to have a prepared mind about death.
