I don't feel there is any hope that I

[Stargleamer]

11. I hope you can find solace knowing that you were born into a very harsh world

one in which such harshness results in many people coming to feel bad about themselves as we grope in the dark, often stumbling, as we try to find ways to improve our lives. We make mistakes, often fuck things up, but we are not to blame for the way the world is, for the lack of experiences in our lives that would have blessed us with the knowledge/insight to enable us to be more closer to who we want to be. And often the harm we experience becomes internalized making our lives even harder. Please practice self-compassion now and affirm the goodness inside of you that brought you to DU.

Hugs to you from stargleamer.
