"The reason we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our behind-the-scenes with everyone else’s highlight reel."
Lately, I'm trying really hard not to compare myself and my life to others. Today a friend of mine shared some really great news with me, and instead of being happy for her, jealousy insued. Funny thing is I already have everything I could really want in life (except maybe a billion dollars) so I don't really understand where these feelings are coming from. It was the first day in a few weeks I really felt like having a drink. Was actually mad for a while that I couldn't and was just in a terrible mood in general. Its been a few hours now and although I'm feeling less angry, the jealously is holding strong. I'm going to make some tea and head to bed! Hopefully a good night's rest will clear my mind! Thanks for listening. 20 days today!
