Empathy.

Sure, it can be a reward....until we can't control who we are empathetic towards.... such as the ones that least deserve our empathy.

It's a struggle making others happy, when they could care less about our happiness.

It's a struggle that the majority of mankind would rather take than give.

@Infinity: i know how that is.. im still a giver tho even tho it seems a lot of people are just selfish.

Finding the true me, accepting her, loving her, being honest with her.

Addiction for obvious reasons.

Probably when my dog had pancreatic failure. He had Cushing's and diabetes and couldn't absorb nutrients well. I had to stick him with a needle twice a day and let him out side 3 times a night. He also went blind. He was so full of life still tho and pretty happy, it was really hard when I had to put him down.

@Drdirt: had to put down a couple of animals. its not easy. one cat had a urinary blockage. the other cat had a stroke and the seizures became uncontrollable.

@theowl: Seizures are horrible. My childhood dog died due to a massive one.

My stepdad and how hard he was on me. He was a force who didn't allow people to catch their breath. It was only when I left the house finally, just to be able to see if I could make it in the world or not because at that point, my motivation, my confidence and any self esteem was gone. Today I am still dealing with the remenants of one mans ignorance

Loving myself.
SW-User
@caccoon: i had struggled with that for years. i was severely bullied growing up that messed up my mind.
caccoon · 36-40
@theowl: I am so sorry to hear that... :( Are you doing better now?
SW-User
i still try to find ways to accept who i am. i think because of all that i keep my distance from people or kind of become detached. i still care a lot for others but i just also keep a lot to myself.
