Just once, I would like to feel like I'm a priority in someone else's life. Just once, I'd like to know what it feels to be important enough to be put first.
All I can see are the ways in which I don't matter. I don't know how to see it any differently. |

Whenever I feel like this, and I often do, I just think of the line from the peace prayer of St. Francis..."it is in giving that we receive" ...It's tough, especially when you're depressed (like I'm struggling with now), but when I shift the focus to others, I get a good feeling...I hope that this helps.

I've been doing that for over 40 years. I don't see any sense in stopping now. I think by visiting this site, though, that we are in, in our own way, taking time for ourselves. I do sincerely hope that things get better for you.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
