It frustrates me sometimes when people act like they're the only ones tired, achy, in pain, etc... but it's just as frustrating when people put themselves down because "others are worse so it doesn't really matter." We all feel what we feel, individually. We can't really know what someone else feels, so we CAN'T accurately compare experiences, even if we had the right to do so.<br /><br />I was talking with Law one day and we were just updating each other on what was going on in our lives. He commented that he's glad we each got our own challenges, because if we had to deal with each other's we'd probably drown under their weight. I think that's as accurate and insightful as I've heard. We have our own challenges, our own strengths and weaknesses, our own abilities to deal with our challenges and our own weak spots in dealing with them. No one else has that, or can really see those things.<br /><br />*gentle hugs* I love you. Glad we got to stop by for at least flying hugs on the way out.Ayshelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03369183495697548102noreply@blogger.com
