I have to learn to accept things for what they are. The shame, however, is hard to shed.
I had sensed my declining employability along the way, and today I humbly accept the fact that the income I have for food, shelter, internet and such actually comes from deductions from the paychecks of other people. Maybe I am missing something in what you have shared, but I find no shame in any of that even though I have never done anything to actually deserve it.
