Oprah

Life always seems scrwed up. You can either fix the problems by thinking of solutions or you can sit in a corner and crib and say "why me?".... it's all upto you to make the decision.
I was watching Oprah today, and today was the show about this guy who survived the nazi persecution and how he put down all his thoughts in this very famous book called 'Night'. she called him out and as both of them were in conversation, he related some of the incidents that had occured. The one inicedent that instantly broke me into a million pieces was the one where he said that, the would make naked women stand out in the freezing weather until the died of frostbite or something. Well we live in a better more modified world. There are people there who have worser problems to deal with, your problem might seem to be the biggest at that precise moment, but always think about all those people in africa who survive on interrupted love! They say that 1 out of 3 women die everyday because of aids. Well life is not what it seems to be. You can always make it better by living in the moment, forgetting the past and not indulging in thought about the future! Oprah today exposed the ruined and tortured lives behind some the greatest names in the histroy of mankind. For example James Blake, a tennis star who broke his neck, whose father died and who had shingles ( it's a disease that eats up your face and swells up your eyes and blurs your vision. She also invited a model who had brain cancer and brest cancer! She has survived such a big ordeal and is still known for her grit and courage. She has around 2o ( i think) staples on the side of her forehead!
The greatest story of a champion surviving, is that of Lance Armstrong. His story has always made me cry out of happiness. He was diagnosed with cancer and still won the Tour de France 7 times. That's great! His story will today and forver deeply touch my heart!
All you people out there who have problems, go on, confide in someone, release all that you have bottled up!
