Does anybody get frustrated because there never being situations that just all flow? Like l like where l live, my employment is decent, and my friend situtation is okay.

I get frustrated that these can't all seem to take care of themselves and be just normal. I don't want to keep finding my ideal employment or place to have my daily coffee and contemplate my life. I want my life to line up NOW. Is this being on the spectrum or just getting older then dirt?
 
I'm not exactly sure what you mean, to be honest. Nothing ever flows just like that and nothing is or will ever be perfect. If you mean about content- and quiet-time with no problems... Well, I would like my peace as any other and it is frustrating not to ever truly have it. There are always smaller or bigger problems on the horizon but that's life for you. Unfortunately.

To have a quiet and peaceful life with little stress until the day you die... Well, that would be nice. Too bad it's not possible.

no it’s suffering, stress ,one feeling I try to remember is when I feel really really frightened and it stops ,all I care about is it stopping ,i’m frightened to say this to myself but !I say I just don’t give a damn about anything else.
 
I get that a lot. I's so easily thrown off track by a small pebble of a problem and it seems like there's always at least one thing to go wrong and make progressing through the day very hard. Not sure how I can get past it yet, but I can't wait for retirement haha.... though I doubt I ever will be able to. I'll probably be working until 80+ if I even live that long.
 
I stopped being frustrated about such things when I realized the cosmic nature of our existence on this secondary, temporary plane. That for most of us, this a highly individualized and deeply arduous experience- by our own design. That we aren't here to simply have things "line up" in the first place.

A basic reason why so many bad things can happen to good people. And that if you want to be "Ferris Bueller", you most likely have to return to your primary plane of existence.


The life of Ferris Bueller. Where everything "lines up" all the time. :cool:

I used to think 'The devil is always in the detail'

It never was,
it was just me, taking wording or speech literally and misinterpreting a meaning,

which led me to have a different expectation,

which made it seem like nothing was ever simple and straightforward
(as 'it' rarely met my expectations due to my misunderstanding)

when you ask 'Why things can't just line up and flow smoothly?'
I'd answer,
'Check your expectations of wants and/or events'
:)

... and your pulse.
If life's running smoothly, carefree and full of joy in abundance,
you're either dreaming or dead :D
