Feeling a little down tonight
So these are the nights that make me feel confused. Do you ever feel like you're compared to others? Maybe friends, or neighbors, or even family members??? Well I have been feeling that way lately. Like because everyone else has such an AMAZING life my life sucks!!! Because we don't own a huge house, or because our Annual Income isn't half of what others make, or because we don't have a retirement plan, and the list goes on and on. Sure when I grew up and even now I dream of all these amazing plans for my future and I hope to one day have 1/4 of everything I dream about.... BUT I feel like we've done pretty well for ourselves. I mean we manage to pay our bills, we have a roof over our heads, and Aaron has a job when so many don't. I just hate feeling like we (well I guess I) am not doing well enough. I do my best. That's all I can do.

I sometimes get into these fits too- where I compare myself to others and think those exact same thoughts.. but then i look at my kids and our beutiful house (even though we just rent) and the fact that we've also been able to pay our bills.. and most importantly, remember that I am happy- and thats all that matters, no matter how little or much you have. You guys are SUPER blessed- dont let anyone let you forget that or get you discouraged!!
