I feel old, unwanted and unattractive.

The way I'm feeling is making me feel miserable. Mostly because my feelings are so insignificant. I mean I'm upset probably because I just had a birthday.  While I'm feeling sorry for myself,  I know people who are homeless, who don't know when their next meal is going to materialize. I know the people in Syria might not have enough food, water, heating fuel, cooking fuel, required medicines or medical care, but here I am feeling miserable for myself.

I really don't have much to complain about and yet here I am feeling like someone destroyed my world. I'm having a hard time fighting the feelings and it makes me feel even worse. How can I feel sorry for myself when others are in such worse shape and they keep going.  I sit here crying over spilled milk so to speak when others have no idea where their next meal is coming from.

  1. Hey, it's okay to feel upset on your birthday. I do all the time. It means that time is passing, and even though the world doesn't seem to care that much, the people who care about you DO, you know? :)

    It's great that you have such compassion for others who are hurting. That's so rare in today's world. And that's what makes you fabulous, no matter how old you are. :)

    Happy birthday.
