Broken Little Person Sitting On A Tree Limb

Having recently been excommunicated from my place of employment, I find that my world is without the motivational catchphrases that appeared on posters and cards within the work environment. While searching the web for that which was lacking I came upon a site that matches my outlook just a bit more closely, Despair.com. You can find it here or in my links section.

A few of the stirring quotes contained therein on various types of merchandise include:

Adversity - That which does not kill me postpones the inevitable.

Hazards - There is an island of opportunity in the middle of every difficulty. Miss that, though, and you're pretty much doomed.

Indifference - It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face.

Irresponsibility - No single raindrop believes it is to blame for the flood.

Loneliness - If you find yourself struggling with loneliness, you're not alone. And yet you are alone. So very alone.

Motivation - If a pretty poster and a cute saying are all it takes to motivate you, you probably have a very easy job. The kind robots will be doing soon.

Pessimism - Every dark cloud has a silver lining, but lightning kills hundreds of people each year who are trying to find it.

Trouble - Luck can't last a lifetime unless you die young.

I know what my friends are getting for Christmas this year.
