You really think the universe has it out for YOU?

The sun has no favourites, it hates us all.

Except, for some weird reason I've always had this inner faith that has made me believe that somehow, no matter what and no matter how hard it is, I will land on my feet. I'm getting older and my life has been far from easy and right now is extremely difficult, but I still cling to that belief. It hasn't failed me yet. What gets me through the day is a steadfast refusal to allow myself to focus on anything other than right now. All any of us has is the present moment. Our lives are nothing but moments. Anyone can be obliterated by some random cataclysmic event at any moment, so this moment is all there is. This applies whether you're fabulously wealthy or flat broke. Try doing this and see if I doesn't help. Each night, tell yourself that you made it through another day and you will make it through tomorrow too. Hang in there!

"Each night, tell yourself that you made it through another day and you will make it through tomorrow too."

That doesn't seem very helpful if every moment is pain and suffering.

My European grandmother lived through two world wars, and the depression in between. One of her favourite sayings regarding hardship is "the pendulum always swings back". Hoping that some good stuff will start coming your way.
