Something has been on my mind the past few days...

The habit of comparing our traumas to those of others. It's a tough habit to break; comparing then always thinking ours is less...not as bad, etc..
Wouldn't a sign of progress be when we are able to stop thinking "they had it worse" and be, "I'm sorry they went through so much...I know how that feels?"
It would be just a bit of a morph to understand the nuance behind that, jmo/jme. One little step away from being a victim and one step closer to I am a survivor.
After survivor--Thriver.

Thoughts everyone?

In Peace
