Get Motivated!

I grew up poor and from an abusive family background, so I was denied a lot of advantages in life. My therapist has said that it's a miracle I am still alive. While that is probably true, I still am alive and still desire happiness.

I am not eaten alive by it the same way I used to be 5 or 20 years ago, but it gets to me in bad times (like now) I was raised to believe (and still do believe to some degree) that the world is just and fair. But obviously it is not truly that way, as people are born without limbs, sick, to rich families, that have friends etc...I have seen a lot, some things are just chance.

Though I am also a spiritual person, certain religions do not offer me the answers I am seeking, or are overly simplistic in their explanations.

I firmly believe that all humans deserve to be happy, and I would like to continue in that way.
