I'm seeing a cycle here.

I keep getting challenges all the time. On the internet, at home, at school, with myself, and with my few remaining friends.

Why is this? I don't want these challenges! People keep testing my beliefs, treat me like some stereotypical air-headed teen because they think they know better. I wish people just left my alone.

I am friggin depressed :cry: , angry :evil: , and just down right confused.:? I'm guessing this is normal in teen-hood? But I guess because I have strong opinions about certain things, people want to test me for some odd reason.

I hate challenges! I wish they could just go away! :x I know some of you might be thinking, but that's part of life. But imagine it every single friggin day!

Trust me...I know what this is like. I have strong opinions about things that my family don't agree with at all. They test me with this, they question my morals and are just down right ignorant about them.

I deal with this everyday...your not alone on that. Challanges are an unwanted, but a necessary part of life. People are right saying that they are a part of life, as without challenges, there would be no growth. I think, though...that excessive challenges produces excess stress, which can't be healthy.

One thing that I've learned about challenges is that if you can get through them alright, they make you a stronger person. Yeah, I know that sounds like a lot of ___ (fill in the blank with whatever word you'd like to use), but it's true. As one of my favorite actors commented in an interview, "the things that happen to you which are most awful are often the things you learn most from." It's very true. :)

Well, my problem is actually that I love challenges. Probably because of my Arian nature. I almost enjoy fighting with people sometimes because it is a challenge. If I get in a huge fight with my friend and get really depressed, unlike lots of people, it kind of gets me excited to go to school the next day and face them. It seems like lots of people would just stay home and be depressed. It gets me in trouble sometimes though.

Arian? Or do you mean Aryan? Race doesn't have to do anything with liking challenges or not. I'm Arayan and I hate them.

I love to be challenged and challenge others in things like beliefs. Mainly because I'm an open person, I like to hear what other's think as well as I like to question it. It's my way of exchanging information.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh you're talking about horoscopes....nevermind...

I personally don't believe in horoscopes myself...but I do find it interesting that some parts of my personality are like the Leo, in which I was born under.
