Tolstoy said, “Our happiness cannot be based on someone else’s unhappiness”-

*FOREVER LOST BY THE MAGIC NUMBERS

Tolstoy was a dick! (look at the picture.. does that look like a man that enjoyed himself? Someone to take life advice from?!)

Ok that is a bit strong- but I am coming down with something and I become careless with words when I am not well.

I read this quote over a year ago and often went back to it when having to decide about my life and that of others. I used it to advise friends, and not sparingly, just to realise that it is absolute bullocks! There is a very happy girl out there wrapped around the arm of the boy that used to make me laugh until I cried. She did not stop for a second to think that her happiness would be based on my unhappiness. So here we have it either we all become selfish and careless or Tolstoy becomes a mandatory read in all schools!


* I decided to add the name of a song at the beginning of each post to set the mood. I suggest you all go to http://www.radioblogclub.com/ and listen to the song whilst reading the post. * Oh, before I go- there is a funny story about the Magic Numbers:

Cute work boy: “Do you know “The Magic Numbers”
Me (looking blank but trying to act cool): … Hum, three and five.
Cute work boy: Ummm.. It’s a band
My thoughts: I want to die…..
