yeah, but what if you got hit by a speeding truck while you were walking across the street?  What if due to the accident you needed to have both of your arms, and both of your legs amputated, and you suffered severe brain damage to the point where you could not speak or even eat without a feeding tube. Youd still be alive. Would you be stronger?

mentally you probably would be, unless you let it kill you, you would learn a lot about life, some of the people that had intense shit happen to them end up gaining a wisdom about life many others will never learn

btw kanye sucks, i thought u had good music taste floyd

What if you get gang raped by aids infested crack heads and your contract the virus?  Technically it wouldn't make you stronger, it would weaker and weaker until it eventually kills you.

all that bad shit could still make you wiser because as you wallowed in pain you would pray and wish for death therefore youd gain a deeper understanding and comprehension of death and the fragile beauty of life

I don't believe in the saying "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger". Whatever didn't kill you might make you more jaded and apathetic, but it will clutter your mind, which almost assuredly won't lead to strength. There's this section of physics called thermodynamics, which is is the study of the conversion of heat energy into different forms of energy. I believe you can relate some of the principles of thermodynamics to the human mind, in particular a section known as the "second law of thermodynamics".
If you're interested:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_law_of_thermodynamics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_law_of_thermodynamics)

It is surmised as "an expression of the universal law of increasing entropy, stating that the entropy of an isolated system which is not in equilibrium will tend to increase over time, approaching a maximum value at equilibrium."

Basically, any working body whether car engine, or boiler, or in this case human mind, will through years of operation increase in "entropy", which is a measure of disorder (crap) within that system. A common example is a cube of ice melting. You can't stop it, it's just in the nature of that cube of ice to degrade over time, much like our minds, or a car's engine.

Now,
take into account all the things that supposedly make you "stronger", tragedy, overcoming substance abuse, failure, fallout in personal relationships; these things (entropy) that occur within our lives are like dirt and shit being introduced into a car's air filter, or holding a light closer to that ice cube. They are detrimental, and require hardship to internalize and keep going. After years of this entropy increasing, your working mechanism (your mind), will begin to to decline in performance.

It would be asinine to shrug off years of driving the same vehicle with no tuneups, as simply "making your car stronger, it's still running right?". However, that ignorant approach IS seen when it comes to our life of hardship. Only, we don't become stronger, we get weaker; just more desensitized so we think we're stronger.

Follow a person who's lived a life of homelessness and drug abuse, see how easy it is to disrupt their equilibrium. Find a rape victim, will she be able to laugh at shows like "family guy"? Chances are, there will be things on TV, generally made for the masses to enjoy, that she will not be able to stomach because of that buildup of entropy, or bullshit that she's had to deal with in her mind. Here's a huge example of societal entropy affecting a huge number of people; the relationship between black America and our nation's history. Atrocities committed throughout the existence of America towards an entire population simply because of their skin color, hasn't left black communities stronger, it's crippled them essentially, to the point where death and disease can be significantly higher in a single zip code, within an otherwise relatively peaceful city, just because it is a community largely comprised of African Americans.


"That which doesn't kill me......" Bullshit. I suppose it's an ignorant bliss to numbed to the pain of life, but we are not stronger for it.

word,whatever gets you through though is how i look at it. everyone copes differently. imagine us as humans never tempering our emotions. we'd all be basket cases,high on pharmaceuticals that only mask the true problems. if holding on to a tired cliche or reading a passage from a book about a God that may or may not exist helps you,then i do not see the harm.

I believe whatever doesn't kill you, simply makes you...
 ...stranger.

-The Joker



You thought we could be decent men, in an indecent time! You were wrong. The world is cruel.
-Two Face.



The world is cruel and shit does indeed suck. But people always have a choice. One option is to give up and succumb to the harshness of the world like poor Harvey Dent....
The other is to recognise that hardship isn't something to  be seen as directly positive but, the possibility to grasp something positive (for lack of a better word) out of a bad situation (no matter how mundane or trivial) is always a possibility. At the end of the day thats all we have.

what you do is take the link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qzCvmUuPLc

then you change the "?" and "=" characters  to two "/" characters

so it looks like this
http://www.youtube.com/watch/v/7qzCvmUuPLc

then put it in the flash brackets next to the insert image option

there you go.

wouldnt that defeat the purpose of "what doesnt kill me makes me stronger"?  youll be dyeing in the end..so you obviously wont get stronger.

if you survive the aids, and cope through the rape then you will be stronger.

Difficult phases in life are trials and initiations that everyone must go through.  You personally decide what to do with it.  Some people crumble, and I understand that.  Others use it to look deep within themselves and find the positive, even when it seems like there isn't one.  Don't get caught up in the hype of things that happen to you in life like you are the only person in the world that bad things happen to. 

I've recently began letting things go that used to bother me because in the grand scheme of things, it really doesn't matter.  Life is just a big test, you make the choice to be positive or negative about it.  You decide your own fate.

Peace

Life itself makes you weaker and weaker until you eventually die. So just being alive itself makes the "what doesnt kill me makes me stronger" statement false  ;)

to a point, thats true.

but when youre a month old, youll get stronger as the years pass.  youll continue to get stronger in your teens and early adult life and to your adult life.  i dont know at what point the body and mind starts to regress..but before we reach that point, we do get stronger...mentally and physically.
