Why Not Me? Reflections on The Traveler

I'm not so able to understand the same thing about my own circumstances much of the time. I like to whine at times about having a mental illness. When I have a bad manic episode, I've been known to say, "Sometimes I really hate my life." First, why not me, as David Ponder was asked. Why shouldn't I have a burden to bear? And why should it be any different than it is? Everyone has what they have to bear. Because I'm strong and adversity only makes me stronger. Some people could not live with my problems. I couldn't live with some of theirs. Because I have a lesson to learn about mental illness, compassion and forgiveness. Because I have children who need a strong, understanding mom. Because when they go through trying times, they need to believe I know what it's like to go through the worst time of your life and come out breathing. Ironically, because I love to learn, and anything that helps me learn, I can accept, even learn to appreciate. What did I do to deserve this? It took me ten years to realize the answer. I don't "deserve" it, it just is. I've learned, and some of this I've learned from Andrews and The Traveler's Gift, that "why me?" The grownups are not riding to the rescue. And, whether I know why or not, it is me. I have to accept that and move on, carrying my burden.    Related post: How To Choose The Best Affiliate Programs Related content: rewarding: Sex of Love views humans in relationship to one another as atoms in the atomic universe.
