A lesson learned....




Category: Pinkies LIfe | Posted: Thu Apr 13, 2006 2:04 am

Ive gone through all the emotions from anger to just down right depressed, since the crash. Understandablly(spell that right?)

Well, I dont know if anyone knows this here but Im a Pagan. If you dont know what that is, just ask!

But anywho, I have two mottos I live my day to day life by, or try too anyways.

1) You cant help anyone until you help yourself first.

2)No matter how bad things seem, theres always someone out there worse off then you.

Ok, So I understand I have the right to feel everything Ive been going through but things got really bad starting last night. I cried myself to sleep first off. This morning I didnt want to get out of bed. My sister called and a guy in her Army unit was shot and killed last night. So what did we do?

We went at 10 am this morning and started drinking.

I got home about 430pm.

When I left this morning, I kept telling myself, No matter how bad things seem, theres someone worse off then you. All that did was depress me even more. I finally told myself to shut up!

When I left this morning the house next to me was empty. When I came home, a family had moved in. The landlord met me at my front door.

Their little boy had burned down thier house. They lost everything. I do mean everything.


Its time to stop feeling sorry for myself because there is indeed someone, in fact, 4 someones worse off them me.

Lesson learned.

We should feel lucky we even have small things, like being able to come on here and meet people from all over and share our thoughts. I'm pretty sure there are many, many people who can't do this.

Thanks for the thought-provoking entry Denee.
