Today I feel weak. I feel alone. It seems like everything is falling apart all at once. Everything is crumbling down on me. Right now I'm sitting in my bed crying, thinking about all the things that are going wrong. I know that this is not right. I shouldn't be here thinking my life is so hard when so many people in this world have it so much worse than I do. My life is very easy compared to some. But that is just the thing. Comparison. Comparison is the thief of happiness. I know from my own experience that comparing yourself to others will do nothing but make you feel worse. That's actually the reason I'm sitting here crying now. My whole life I've compared my talents, looks, strengths, EVERYTHING to others. It doesn't make me feel better. It makes me feel bad, and I need to stop. I can't compare myself or my life to anyone else's. I am me. God made me different from you. He made you different from me. We are all unique, and that is why we cannot compare.
