What's new?!?

So.... I'm going to graduate this June with my RN. I'm super excited but sad at the same time. I graduate on June 27, my birthday falls on the 26. It should be the best week ever and I will make it my best to do so. Long story short, I grew up in a dysfunctional family so the people who mean the most to me won't be there. That makes me sad. Yes, perhaps I can invite other people but at the end of the day if the people who mean the most to you aren't there supporting you...it doesn't mean much. I had this on my vision board since I was 18 years old. I took breaks in between but NEVER gave up. I worked at a hair salon for 7 years, once Covid hit I left and went back to school. Worked my way up the ladder. CNA, LPN, and now RN. I didn't ask my family for a dime. I saved my money and did everything on my own. Now, seems like everything bad is happening and I feel discouraged. It's never been about me. I've always been the black sheep of the family yet the glue that holds everything together. Yes, I know people have it worse than me and I'm beyond grateful for the things I have! But sometimes at least one time... I want it to be about me! I'm proud of myself b/c I did it all on my own! Without a helping hand or anyone believing in me. I hope I don't offend anyone but you don't know how lonely you are when the only person you have to depend on is God. 😔
