the bliss of knowing you never stood a chance

[hitlersblackedwaifu]

That's why it's the biggest cope. 

Unless you are severely impaired by nature (like down syndrome or severe autism plus below average iq), you always had the chance to change things at any time. It is much harder to accept the reality that you are where you are due to your bad choices. 

As long as you have the ability to type coherent messages on forums, you have the ability to fight back against bad circumstances, even if you will never have your "dream life".

So you'll keep beating yourself over things you are not in control of, gotcha.
