  • I have elderly family that seem miserable because they never bother to learn or achieve anything since they are "too old" for it to matter.

    They assume retirement is just lounging around all day until you die. They don't pursue hobbies, read books and are not very active since it "doesn't matter" .

  • Figuring out abusive relationships for me was hard because I knew friends with good intentions, and gave valid criticism but were absolutely brutal about it.

    Now I very rarely associate with very insecure people. They are always looking to "prove" themselves, often by putting others down.

    They can't just accept someone's accomplishment, they have to go "well actually you got help from so and so..." And always try to undermine your achievements. Extremely mentally exhausting people.

  • I remember a story of a guy talking about how the store reeked and smelled terrible. After doing tons of searching at the epicenter of the smell, turns out some guy hid a 5 pound beef brisket on the bottom shelf, hidden behind a bunch of breakfast cereal.

  • I found gaining an interest in hobbies that are difficult gave me a will to live. I want to experience mastering all of these crafts that take decades to master.

    Cooking, drawing, woodworking. Becoming a master of just one is hard enough, so every minute is extremely precious. I try to spend as much time as possible practicing and learning.

    I can't think of suicide because I worked so hard to male this much progress, and I still want to experience my other hobbies.

    One's craft helps one's life. An old Japanese saying.
