If you're forced to live locked in a room full of shit, only by embracing it you will see value in the few clean spots left. How about this for a crappy analogy?

Well, it's true. If your life sucks and someone tells you how you should be enjoying it, then they're acting stupid. You don't have to enjoy life. But you can enjoy it a little bit. I'm sure there's something like you like to do, like venting on steemit.

My life has sucked for the past 30 years (I'm 30 now!), although in different reasons and on different levels. What has saved me so far is playing videogames and going the extra mile for anyone I deem worthy.

I hope you find the time to immerse yourself in your hobbies, even if you end up doing tedious stuff like having to earn money to maintain your safe harbor.
