What bigger picture?The glass is still not full!!

People always tell you to look at the bigger picture. What bigger picture? I'm too clouded to even see, let alone envision this godly master plan. To think of the glass as half full and not otherwise? That everything happens for a reason? Is this 'reason' always a good one? I'm sick of people being optimistic when things are clearly awry. Who's in denial now? The ones that have got it all together or the one sobbing buckets on the bed in the dark?
Things will get better? Right. The point is across that life has a sick way of screwing everything up all at one time, so what are the grounds of that statement? To shut you up coz they cant stand you whining about if only's, about how pathetic your life is and how unfair He is? Or is that their way of comforting themselves in dealing with their own suppressed sh*t? Frankly, I think it's both, but more points definitely go to the former.
There's only so much a friend can do when you're down on your knees, weakened by emotions and crippled by self pity. She can provide you with a listening ear, a treasure chest full of advice and sexist remarks (think 'men are idiots') to comfort you during those bouts of depression. But there is a line. After she's said and done all she can, you're on your own. She's got her own life and mess to sort out. The problem is yours to deal with. I don't mean to insult and undermine the sincerity of my friends ( I know they care) but I've come to terms with the idea of being alone. Heck, being single at forty doesn't sound that bad….
