I am an Open Book and YES! things annoy me, but would any of us better off anywhere else?

Jack Peterson Posted September 23, 2017 Author Posted September 23, 2017 Just now, stevewool said: its the other people that pee you off, It is not so much anyone pees me off Steve, it is the fact that many just do not understand that not all of us are Unhappy or maybe it is me that does not understand what makes people tick when there are Alternatives. Anyway rightly or wrongly I guess it is a can of worms and so let's see what comes out of it. It May be that I am on some sort of low (Although i don't feel that way) but that is it for me tonight. My old Signature says it all for me, "Life, is not a Rehearsal, It is for Living" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I already did leave once (to go back to the good 'ol USA), the real question (for me) should be: Once I was back home: I became stressed-out from the quicker pace of living in the West, since I was no longer accustomed to it (plus I realized that I just never did like it anyway). I missed the respect for senior citizens that I was getting in the Philippines. I saw that my retirement money was worth more back in the Philippines than it was worth in the USA. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
