One day in my anatomy class the professor asked us what is the term used for an ill individual who is tired and very exhausted. She was referring to lethargic and fatigue. Some cocky douchebag answered “lazy”. I literally wanted to rip his head off. Hes clearly never been sick, fatigued or lethargic. Idiot.

A Rock and A Hard Place
bp0sitive:
You know the saying “stuck between a rock and a hard place?”  Well I’ve been doing some thinking lately, trying to remain more positive about life, and I’ve decided to personally change that statement to “stuck between a rock wall and a hard place.”  Because there is always a solution, or a way out… No matter how hard it may be, you can climb a rock wall if you set your mind to it.
Don't compare what you're going through to what...
