Damn This Life

 This stupid life gets in the way of everything. I don't know how else to put it. It can be annoying at times, aggressive, and simply straight down terrible. I don't know where to store these feelings I have about life. They come and go and there's no real place to put them. I feel terrible having these feelings. I don't know how else to react to my life. It just feels sad and lonely. I am alone. There are no other feelings to actually feel. I don't know what to do with any of it.

If I had the ability to suppress these feelings, I would. But I can't. There's no way to make them simply disappear. I must continue forward with these feelings intact, being aggressive towards me, and strive to be able to withstand whatever comes my way. There is no other choice but to endure.

Endure. Such a strange word for what I have to go through. I'm not sure I understand what is going on with this life, just that I need to have it collapse at some point in time. There is nothing else to be done about it. If I survive the fall of my own demise, then I continue forward onto something else. But if I fail, even for an instant, I am finished.

I don't believe there is any other way through this but endurance. I wish there were some other way to get through this life. Some kind of peace that I could find within myself. But I cannot find such things. There is nothing I am able to do about any of it. If I die, I will know I have done everything I could have done to avoid that which is bothering me. If I live, then it is simply more torture.

It's not an easy thing to talk about at all. Here's what it is: Suicidal ideation ( suicidal thoughts )  are thoughts or ideas centered around death or suicide . Experiencing suicidal ideation doesn’t mean you’re going to kill yourself, but it can be a warning sign.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
