Feeling disheartened?

There are days when I feel lackluster and disheartened with my situation, the day seems to pass on some kind of automatic pilot my mind not registering the events that have taken place. I ask myself… where is my life going, I question my values, I question the intentions of those around me and those with whom I am in contact with.

As much as I am not a person who experiences these days often or dwells on the significance of why I am feeling this way I do reflect on how I came to be in this mood and realize that it is normally triggered by a trivial comment made by an innocent party.

It is times like these when I am feeling sorry for myself caught up in my own little world that I force myself take stock of what I have, where I am in my life and the type of person I am then it dawns on me, I live in a beautiful warm and sunny environment, I have no worries of any consequence I have responsibilities to the many cats and dogs who rely on me to care for their welfare, I lack nothing materially, so what right do I have to feel this way when there are thousands of others in the world not as fortunate as I am their life is a struggle to survive they find no peace or comfort in their situation gaining little support or sympathy from family or even loved ones.

As much as their will always be someone who has it better than you the next time you feel your world is crashing down around you spare a thought for those that experience this every day.
