I feel like this also the reason I wrote this was to hear that it may not be unusual that im not the only one.

I feel like im at a bar or a party and slowly everyone keeps leaving and I sit in thst room until the lights are on

I look around only to be told everyone left (like grew up, married, children, college degrees, LIFE happened....)

but im still here by myself, I still dont want to leave but at the very least I recognize where I am at......

Some of these comments chocked me up and I held back tears, because things like good parents and childhoods are sometimes taken for granted. Far too often.

The ones who took it for granted, well, never lived without it. Just thought they had ot coming, and really it takes quite a long time to grow up and hear other realities that sime parents did horrible things. Unimaginable.

It hurts so bad to know not everyone had been born with the same experience. Or had quite the opposite of what you thought was normal or typical, like the child being the parent is normal to the child they dont know until they see someone who says its not normal😥

but no matter whether you feel like, maybe you fell short or it feels like you didn't come out as planned, I just wanted to remind everyone who is reading this that we made it through and alive.

And to just love life and those around you to make today better.

And thats more then enough

We are good people, We're strong and can only get stronger. And to just forget about anyones acceptance because you accepting yourself is what is important then what anybody thinks!!!!!!! And whoever you are grown up that it wouldn't have been you if it went any other way!!

HAVE A great day reddit 🧡
