It often makes me feel worse, because I now want to hurt the person saying it.
Reblogged this on autistsix and commented:
This is a great site with lots of fantastic poetry. I couldn’t go past this one though for it’s important message.
I hope you don’t mind that I reblogged this. I just have never seen & heard this important sentiment put so well!
I don’t mind at all. Thank you.
True. Of course we’d like it if no one was worse off, but we still have to deal with our own problems. The extent of someone else’s problem doesn’t change that one bit!
