Member-only story
You are the captain of your ship. If you’re not happy with where your ship is, then it’s your own damn fault.
Some might say that’s not fair. Life just gets in the way sometimes, you might say, and there’s nothing you could have done about it. You might have been born in the wrong family, you might have been born with a disability, you might have undergone circumstances that are way out of your control…
Well tough beans.
Fact of the matter is, those are the cards you’re dealt with, and whether you like it or not, you just have to continue playing the game.
In this world, nothing is fair. Some are born with more, some are born with less .. but still we all have to deal with it to the best of our abilities… to the best that we possibly can.
Your family and friends can only help you so much. Those that love you will probably try to help you the most, but they can only help you up to a certain extent. You still have to do the heavy lifting. It is your life after all, and no one else can live it for you.
You can blame others or external forces all you want, but in the end, when it comes down to it, you have to be the one to live with yourself.
