Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Life is also full of people thinking that if others followed their exact steps there would be no way they could turn their life around. They're often just as wrong.
Yeah, the logic seems sound but is a bit what-about.
The problem is that it is a lot of luck and some strong resolve but the luck is very important.
People should grab the reigns of their life and try to get out of a bad situation but if life paths barely work for motivation then life paths to get out of sharing the same odds does make it quite the uphill battle.
I just want to recognize that as trying so hard to get that perfect life turnaround is like winning the lottery and while people shouldn't stop trying I don't want them to be burned out by the lack of response to their efforts in this complicated world.
