2011 - The year of bullshit happenings (a personal blog)

Glad to see the end of such a shit year. Very little good or productive actually came out of this year. It is very easy to notice how many things went wrong however. Some people say that it's easy to be negative. What I usually find is that those people:
a) Like their job b) Are or have achieved most of their goals and c) Generally have much better luck and lastly seem to have everything going for them in life. Being around these positive people, I've always wondered why this happens. I can only conclude there's a bunch of different factors which they are lucky enough to have. imagine if these same positive people were placed in a country like Japan, specifically the south, where your home was destroyed by a flood, many people you know die from drowning and then you have to worry about the nuclear radiation from the tsunami damaged nuclear power plant. Would you have a positive outlook then? Could you simply ignore the bullshit life threw at you and simply ignore the negatives? I just think people are extremely naive to suggest that thinking positively will give you a truly positive life. As proven in the example above, you can have a tragic event happen out of your control completely, you could be in a car accident that cripples you and causes numerous health issues later because your friend is drink driving, or you could catch a virus or disease that remains for years...

I guess this is why I like horror movies. Horror movies are quite honest, in that they accept that negativity is a part of life. Shit happens. People don't want to admit that shit happens to anyone at anytime. Some are luckier than others but in the end something bad will happen to them as well.

I don't expect 2012 to be a great year. I can only hope this year that I don't have the health problems, the major problems at work, the friendship issues, the dealing with asshole behaviour and the general depression all of this causes.. I'm bound to have one or all of these things happen. I've somehow got to change my environment. I think this is truly the only way I can give life a better chance of being good again.

Once my health is back together I will finally film the short I've been on about since September. I dunno I suspect this film will show my current state of mind.
