I do agree .. Although this is not the way it should be. Life is short and we are supposed to live it to the fullest.. It just appears to be too much for a depressed - unhappy person ... I totally feel for these people,, they don't want to feel this way..
Been There
Great Question

Yes, a while ago. But I think I'm now living a life of "loud hope." :-) I've realized that there is so much work to be done in the world, and that Web technologies can enable an ordinary person to have a big impact. Yahoo! Answers, for example, enables anyone to benefit from the knowledge, experience, even wisdom of complete strangers!

Yes. The vast majority of us are totally disapointed with life. A study a few years ago came out saying that 80% of people work just for a paycheck. My life definitely did not come out as I planned it and there have definitely been many unplanned bumps in the road. My plans are far less grand than they used to be, but they are good ones. I was lucky in some ways, but even my luck hasn't brought me to where I wanted to be. And I'm far luckier than more. I can't imagine what the vast majority of people who aren't as lucky as I am are going through.

Well I dont think its possible for everything to go perfect for everyone but I'm happy most of the time and I'll never give up on my goals. I do think too many people may be unhappy like that but I'll try my hardest to not be one of them.

Most people are unable to openly react or openly criticise oppression by society upon them. They live their lives desperate, but out of fear of the backlash rather choose to accept and live with the unfairness than complain about it.

I don't like to live in quiet desperation, but I have no choice at the moment.
