My mistake! This was supposed to go up Friday, but I'm just going to leave it up anyway.
Sometimes
I look
And
I see what they’re doing
I
cringe inside
Because
I’m not like them
I’m
not very popular
I’m
not getting a lot done
I’m
not running myself ragged
I’m
not even relaxing the same way
Everything
they do
I
wish I could do
Because
they have what I want
And
as I watch them
I
cringe inside
Because
I’m not like them
I’m
not deep like them
I
can’t quote God’s word as well
I
haven’t traveled very much
I
got my first job late
I
can’t keep up with them
I
cringe inside
Knowing
I can’t be like them
But
as I grow older
I
have to begin to wonder
If
maybe they cringe inside to
Because
they can’t be like me
It hurts to compare yourself to someone else.
It hurts when someone compares themselves to you.
Thank you!

DeleteWow, I relate to this so much. Inadequacy is a real, and sometimes painful, thing. But your conclusion was really encouraging. I need to get some of that positivity into my thinking! Thank you. xx
