I spent 12 hours writhing on the ER floor with a kidney stone. I literally wanted to die, if given the option and a button to press that would have snuffed out life, I would have asked for a turbo setting on the button.
Still never prayed. Raised christian, prayed my entire childhood for things I desperately wanted like my parents to stop fighting and to have friends and be allowed to go to school and nothing ever came from it. I just stopped going to “him” for help after a while and realized finally nobody is coming, there is no higher power. We just have ourselves and our moments here to make the best of. One chance is all we have to make a good life for ourselves and others, and I believe FIRMLY if more people knew this we would have a better world.
Christianity also says we have one shot - then we either eat shit in hell if we effed up or find oyrselves in haven…whatever it means.
But back to the topic - most folk know this, but this raises one bad idea - if it’s only as good as you make it, why care for others? Make them stepping stones for your benefit.
