Dealing with things. Times I do come to a dead end and don’t know what to do. Making decisions about important life changes in particular. After dealing with the death of my dad and freezing up about decisions of sorting things out it would have been better if I had just did things and moved on. Now caring for my terminally ill husband, I pull my granny panties up and deal with everything. Nobody is going to do it for me.

I know it's hard. I have walked your path and I want to reassure you - you WILL come through. You are stronger than you could ever believe though nothing is easy.
One day, even one hour at a time and you can do this.

Metaphorically speaking? My life has been full of dead end relationships, jobs, etc. Usually I had to start over from scratch. For example, sleeping on a relative's couch (again) until I could get back on my feet. Working in fast food (again) until I could get something better.Have you ever gone down a dead end...
Did you turn around?...
Or not?
Or..what??
considering life? then yes I hit dead ends several times. started over time and time again. I am tired now, I have worn out the soles of my shoes and cannot afford new ones(metaphorically speaking) I take comfort in the fact that the jobs I did I always did to the best of my ability, my personalty sux but was never hired for that.

Lots of dead ends in life, just need to know when and how to move on...
Until that last one I guess.

I live on a dead end, so I usually just park and relax.

I call them brick walls. When I hit one I might get mad, I might get sad and I might let it stop me for a while. Eventually I get sick and tired of being sick and tired and bust through the wall head first. I usually find good things on the other side though.

A dead end is just a challenge.

I knew a great dead end when I was a teen..with a honey by my side. Remember full bench seats in the old cars?
Seriously, when I first went into the Army, I felt like I was at a dead end but the longer I put up with the crap, the better I liked it.

Not this country Boy! The world is a pretty big place and there is room for all of us. Well, maybe not those urbanites in monster cities but for country folk, "the sky is the limit."

If you had the right Rambler the front seat folded all the way back to make a bed. Ah, to be young again.

The Serenity Prayer shows the way to approach what appears to be a dead end. It goes as follows: "God grant me the Serenity to ACCEPT what I cannot change, the energy and will to change what I can and the WISDOM to know the difference."
Don't forget that ALL of us must accept suffering and death at the end of life and the only approach to that cataclysm is will power.
I'm age 88 and accept EVERYTHING that WILL happen to me in the near future. It's the only way to approach it.
