Why is it that, when you are asked to do something important and you need time and space to get it done, it is then that people want to ask you a million questions, talk about nothing, or blast the tv?

Ok....now that I have that off of my chest.....what is your q?

What is it that at work the only time our computers take a crap and the time-server for the tanning beds fizzles out is when I have 6 clients in front of me?

Why is it that once you get anywhere near retirement age--all hell breakes loose with you or yours health?

That is something that bothers me too! Sometimes when I am fixing something or building something around the house my wife will come up to me and say "you know what we need to do next?" AARRGGHHHH! God Damnit! Let me finish the first project before you start piling on the work. I love how she says "We".

How cum your boss spends more time bitching at you for what you ARE doing rather than focusing on what he or she should be doing themselves.

Do as I say and not as a do!

Perfect week for me to get that off of my chest!

Personal theory #341: It's similar to pheromones; pheromones drift away from your bod, find a receptive male (ok, right, right, how hard is that?) and attraction begins. Now it's not pheromones in this case, but something that your overstressed, muscle-tense, slightly-higher-temperature body (oh, wow, wait a minute...okay) puts out when the going gets tough. Others sense this, and voila--attraction of the obnoxious kind.

Then again, maybe it's just life.

It is our nature to believe in the positive- that some magic cataclysm of occurrences will save us from our folly. We inherently believe that we can not get ourselves into a situation that we can't handle or extract ourselves from.

How many of you ask yourself that question? It's simple, yet so deep it's hard to anser, none of us really know.


I myself am a dreamer. a sole beleiver that somewhere somehow this all makes sence. That there's got to be a reason as to just simply...why?

Why are we here? why is the sky blue? "I actually know why lol", Why is there no end to the Universe? Why do we exist? Why do we love "sometimes the wrong person" Why do we want to have it all when the ones who have it all usually end up losing it anyway...

I'm feeling pretty f*cking shitty and depressed and I drove the other nite finding myself asking these questions to myself and for some reason you folks where the first to pop in my mind and that made me feel better.

I figure if there's a bunch of folks to ask this question this would be a good place to get an idea if I'm losing my mind! lol

So tell me, do you ask yourself why?

So tell me, do you ask yourself why?by the way Frenchie..I love your penis too!!!I ask all the time . When people start getting older(which youare not, but I am) they start to wonder about theair mortality, and if they are going to leave a mark somewhere. I marked the bush out front. Unless you are truly happy with your home life work life entire life, I think you will always wonder why> I personally believe I have found why for me.

I wonder if there will be yet another suicide in my family. I wonder why I must go through things alone. I wonder why some people can deal with life and others can't. I wonder how much more my mind can handle.

I never ask Why.... I just take life as it comes the good and the bad... and move on to the next thing...Success is not about questioning your failures...but learning from your mistakes and apply what you learned to life...When you sit around and ask why...You are focusing on the past..something that you can not change.... I ask What can I do better the next....

06-11-2007, 11:05 PM
Honestly? I don't ask why.
The way I see it is life is full of joys and hardships alike. We can't fully appreciate the good times without going through the tough times. That's just the way it is. There is a lesson to be learned from every experience. Sometimes we learn that lesson at the moment, sometimes in hindsight, sometimes twenty years down the road, and sometimes we never figure it out.
So what's the point, you may ask?
To experience it all. To embrace every moment, every hardship, sorrow, triumph, and joy and grow from them.

I wonder why some people have to go through so much hurt and despair while others coast through life without the slightest bad thing happening to them. I wonder how strong you have become, baby, due to the difficulties you have faced over the past several years.

a question that has puzzled, or plagued the greatest minds for generations....

maybe the question isn't why.....but how?

perhaps how we live life, is wehat gives it meaning

I have no idea......but I do read on the topic at times

other times I turn on a ball game, read the paper, or people watch in the mall......and ask 'why'?

why is he still pitching?

why did they abandon a newborn?

why did he win the lottery, not me?

why did she have that look on her face?

why does she like tuna?

why didn't I cry when he died?



thanks for asking the question......

it is good to wonder the why....

and determine, the how.

Why do I feel like I should please you by not putting up a fight?

Isn't curiosity wonderful! It jump starts the creative process. It makes us ask questions. It encourages us to go beyond current right answers. It makes us become explorers... Isn't the question "why" really an invitation to wonder? Without the why there would be no because or no maybe, without "why" there would be no answers...

In my house the most frequent question asked by my children is "why"... Why? because they are naturally curious about the world they live in!

Well put --- but......

"Why" is too often used to abdicate responsibility for management of our own environment, our own lives, our own circumstances. When we ask "why", we are acknowledging that there are things over which we have no control, things that happen just because ----- well, because they do. Do we excuse our inadequacies, inaction, or intransigence by ascribing it to a higher authority or circumstance over which we have no control?

Is there a grand plan? Is that why things happen the way they do? Is it pure happenstance? Is it the fortunate, or unfortunate, collision of random instances that create a chaos that we must try to define?

Ok, so should we look at things from the scale of a billion light years, where the universe appears rather boring and homogeneous? From the point of view of an atom? Not thinking in visual terms, because vision is a property of eyes, and eyes do not exist. Not to think in terms of hot or cold, hard or soft, loud or quiet, bright or dim, violent or gentle, because these are all properties of nervous systems that do not exist. The "big bang," this is nothing more than whistling past the old groove yard. Whatever it was, it was neither "big" nor "bang." or a medium sized groan, or soft sigh, or dropped tool box on my foot. Ouch! you see it doesn't matter, so long as I don’t ask "why?"

The farther I grow away from him/his hold, the stronger I become. Yet, I still tend to question my choices/motives......why do I question myself? Why do I think I can make the difference?

Well, kinda --- you are confusing the question of "why" with "what". To ponder the creation, or to wonder of an item, that is the "what". "What" created this universe? "What" is our role in this stage play?

But "why" ... the very question presumes a larger control - "why' did this happen to me? "Why" do I always have things go bad? "why" did she die? All of those presume that there is a larger entity at play, one that dictates our circumstances, one that pulls the little puppet strings, and one that has some master plan, some script, by which seemingly random coincidences are melded together to create a situation for which we cannot fathom why.

If, by your definition, "life just happens" .... then, there is no why. It is merely the coincidental crossing of life threads, or time threads, that puts us into circumstances. Nothing is planned - there are no consequences -- it's just the luck of the draw, being in the wrong place at the right time.

No Spare I am not confusing the question.

"Why" by definition is used in questions, indirect questions and statements: for what reason. or because of, which, or indeed from old English "What"


Our culture puts a lot of emphasis on understanding everyone's feelings and the rationales behind every action. There's really no point in most of it, is there? What matters is what we say, what we do. Our feelings are our own, and can be wholly inappropriate at times, but they are not something we can control. What we can control is how we deal with them... So many people cling to that illusion of control, it's pointless. I work on this every day with my own stubborn self. Certain things bother me for no reason, just because they are not the way I want them to be. Not important things. I must be doing better because I'm trying to think of an example of one and I can't. But there are so many times when I ask the question 'Why did I do that' 'Why did he do that' etc. Does it make sense to even ask why? Yes, it does, if I could find something in the answer that I could change, that I could control, to make sure these things don't happen again or continue...

What matters is what we say, what we do. Our feelings are our own, and can be wholly inappropriate at times, but they are not something we can control. What we can control is how we deal with them... So many people cling to that illusion of control, it's pointless. I work on this every day with my own stubborn self. Certain things bother me for no reason, just because they are not the way I want them to be. Not important things. I must be doing better because I'm trying to think of an example of one and I can't. But there are so many times when I ask the question 'Why did I do that' 'Why did he do that' etc. Does it make sense to even ask why? Yes, it does, if I could find something in the answer that I could change, that I could control, to make sure these things don't happen again or continue...

Why do I smile at the sound of your voice?
Why do I let you take over me as if I had no choice?
Why do I let you touch me in places never touched?
Why do I like to have you around so much?

Why do I melt at the tenderness of your kiss?
Why do I feel like I could live forever like this?
Why do I put my heart in your hands?
Why do I answer to your every demand?

Why do I tell you leaving me is not your wrong?
Why do I let you know with out you I'm not quite as strong?
Why do I take you back even though I know it's not right?
Why do I feel like I should please you by not putting up a fight?

Why do I care about you even though you hurt me?
Why do I turn my head from what's plain reality?
Why do I try to hide from what is true?
Why do I still have these feelings for you?

Nahh -- I got distracted by your ass (like that's NEVER happened before!)

To even ask the question "why" should help you to know that, in fact, you are not in control. If you were, then you would already know why - you would already understand the implications of your actions.

So, if we presume that there are some things out of your control, then we must assume, logically, that those same things are being controlled by some other entity. If such is the case, your "why" is really an examination of "how" you can influence the other controlling entities in order to establish a greater influence on those things you can't control. So, I presume, that means that we are all control freaks who want, and need, absolute control of our daily lives. Hardly spontaneous, wouldn't you say?


(Now, if that ain't bollocks, I never seen any!)

Hmmm -- spontaneously controlling --- sounds oxymoronic. If you assume, however, that there are periods in which you relinquish control (doesn't the very act of relinquishing control mean that you are still in control?), then it would seem feasible to be spontaneously controlling -- but only if not being in control is your quiescent state.

"I'll show you mine if you show me yours."

Now, who is in control? Me - for setting the conditions, or you, for being the trigger to the event?

My ever so special ( Y ) ? :D

A new why... We are all under the manipulation of mass consciousness through major media, schools, churches, government etc. we have been conditioned since birth and it continues throughout our lives, the manipulated pawns of our society, yet we never question our thought or behaviour patterns. We are herded into accepting the norm that is placed before us, and we don’t give it another thought. And if we don’t conform we are harassed into acceptance! We are unknowingly surrounded and engulfed by consumerism and this is part of normal life. It is so much a part of us that most of the time we aren’t even conscious of it. "why" don't we stand up for our innate freedom to think, say, and do what is in our hearts...

Most of the questions brought up express puzzlement over our hardships, questioning the adversities we face everyday. It reminded me of a favourite quote of mine...


"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.”
-Helen Keller

I wonder what life would be like if nothing ever went wrong; if we were never challenged or experienced setbacks. How would we ever recognize it as such?

I have noticed that happiness is often incorrectly interpreted. It is never possible to "find" happiness, as the more you search the more elusive it becomes. True happiness is the only one that counts, and that you can not seek, you have to earn it. The effort required is usually fairly small, but the reward is also not infinite. To be truly happy oneshould look outside their own lives and forget the selfish desires that our society have led us to believe will result in happiness... a new car, a boat, that cute new secretary....all these things are superficial and can only dull the senses into a temporary state of "happy". All too soon the effects wear off and like any addicting substance we go out and seek more, newer, bigger and more powerfull stimulations, all the while ignoringthe sourcev of true happiness. Ask a mother what happiness is and she will often answer with something involving her child/children... ask a teacher and it is a student... the point is that to find happiness you have to stop looking for in for yourself, and begin to try and provide it for others. The more you unselfishly give away, the more you find within yourself.

Of course you have the right. All feelings come from a series of events...and human nature equips us with a set of automatic responses to deal with them.. Angry? Okay. Happy? Excellent! WHATEVER. You react a certain way BECAUSE...and it's totally legitimate because it's involuntary; the mind processes everything and spews out what it believes is the proper emotion. *Something* made you sad or happy or horny or whatever. Therapists make fortunes trying to decipher the mind processes that produce emotion.

Why, when you are thinking about one negativity, do all of the others begin to flood?

Why, when you are thinking about one negativity, do all of the others begin to flood?

Because we seem to find a way to focus on what doesn't happen, what we don't have, what we don't like. It's more the idea of what we are paying attention to. At the same time these negative things are happening, there are many positives in our lives that we are somehow choosing to ignore. The smile of a child. The offer of a hug. The quick 5 minute phone call simply to say hi and I was thinking of you.

When we stop looking at the world as a pie that is carved up and if someone else gets their slice it's one less for us, we open up the opportunity to be thankful and happy for those things we do have. Because there is more than enough happiness for us all to share, we just need to know where to look.

I am happy and grateful for what blessings I do have and do not begrudge those who have more than I. There are reasons for everything. There are reasons for my being, and my situation, and my thoughts and feelings. I am not a selfish one. I can be as happy for others as I can be for myself. I chose not to take from the pie of life, but to make my own instead.

Probably...maybe...because getting help signifies a weakness to some, an acknowledgement of one's capabilities, which in the emotional arena, hurt worse than not being able to compete physically. I think it's all ego, something some of us here can understand. Trying to do it oneself, to get oneself out of a depressive rut would signify a great redeeming emotional victory. Getting help is what the "weaker" ones do. Hope this was somewhere near the target...

I think that is only aspect of why people don't ask for help. Another could be that they're ashamed of the situation they're in. Then there's the not wanting to burden others with your issues, which is something I often feel. Sometimes you feel as if you are a drain to others because there seems to be an issue at every turn. Sometimes it's easier to pretend to be ok than to ask another to hold your hand yet one more time.

I also think that there's a sense of vulnerability that comes into play as well. Trusting someone enough to allow them to help you. I do understand not wanting to let your guard down......

I think for most of us it is easier to help than to ask for it. Men are fixers...they need a solution for the problem so they can attack it head on and fix it. Women are nurturers......we need to make it better, to heal, to right the wrong.

As much as I hate conventional marketing wisdom, I do believe *some* of the Mars/Venus dynamic. Men are fixers; at least I am. But I'm also learning to listen and keep my damn mouth shut. It's not easy; when someone I care about has a problem, I want to help them with it. I want to fix it so they will feel better. Plus it's easier than fixing the things in your own life! There are people I trust, and vulnerability is definitely an issue, and I do unburden myself once in a while. It always feels better afterwards...it's just taking that damn plunge...

This takes me back to having my son. When they wheeled me, unconscious, back to the room I was moaning loudly. Apparently they had placed me in the wrong direction on the bed and had to turn me around. I was not aware of any of this, but my husband was. He cursed and paced and yelled at the hospital staff for causing me more pain, even though I was still "out". He was reacting in anger becuase he could fix me or make my pain go away.......

They aren't. I believe that no one person is more deserving that another. Goes back to that "reasons" theory and the fact that there is one for everything in life. For whatever reason, some have to work harder than others to accomplish their goals and dreams in life. But, how much sweeter is the reward in the end when you know that you earned it and it was not merely handed to you?

There are luxuries that I will never have. Funny though, at this point in my life, my luxuries are a home I own, cars that last for more than a couple of years, a decent wardrobe, and to provide for my son. If you knew my history, you would understand why these are now luxuries. Would it be nice to have no worries and such? Of course! But, for whatever reason, I am meant to struggle as are some of the rest of us. So, I will make the best of my struggling and hope, by God's grace, that my child will not have to do the same.
