Amen, my brother, Amen!There is security in familiarity. Some people I have known prefer their misery over change because change requires a degree of risk. However, the greater risk lies in refusing to change.
I read, but did not reply to the "Who gives a d***" thread, due to the attitude of the author. One can acknowlege one's misery in a truly seeking manner, and benefit from the input of others. Or one can just try to put his misery on any who would listen to him, and benefit no one.
I prefer not to have another's misery forced upon me.
