how to deal with stress

I feel like as empty as a stone. There is no hope for the brokenhearted, ever. I feel like I need a change and a change would do me some good. This really is a bad time to be alive and I think that if I were to change the way that I percieve how to find people especially people that are good and decent, then I think we would truly have something here in this life that was going pretty good. I know that I shouldn’t blame my shortcomings on others, but it just feels better to do it that way.
