So I deserve to be heard and to be validated just as much as the next person. I'm not asking for too much; I deserve to thrive in my life as much as the next person. So I keep being tempted to minimize my feelings and frustrations by telling myself to quit whining, to be grateful for what I have, and to shut up already.

But you know what? No. I'm just as human as the next person, which means my feelings and needs are just as valid as everyone else's. Feeling frustrated is not a sense of entitlement; it's the natural progression of being human and experiencing a lack of certain things that are ESSENTIAL for growth and well-being.

So this is me, crying out into the void. If no one is reading, or if I'm invisible, it really doesn't matter. This is me, this is what I'm feeling, and I'm posting about it on my own personal blog.
