Struggling Help

Between feeling worthless and feeling powerless? Today is one of those days. Maybe I more so feel powerless than I do worthless. We try so dang hard to let things happen as they should. “Accept the things I cannot control.” But why? Why when it comes to your child do you have to prove so beeping hard (to people who won’t even listen to you) that you no longer drink and you’re no longer in an abusive relationship? Just really freaking tired of it today.

Rant over.

Powerless is both so F’n frustrating, and yet so peaceful when we finally do surrender to it. Worthless is more of a self loathing feeling. I can deal with powerlessness, as I’m confronted with that all the time. Worthless is a different story. I really need to dig into why I’m feeling that way, and find tools to heal that. Either way, your message is very powerful, and you have tons of worth

I've been floating very similar thought in my mind as of late. Personally it feels that I can't give up on my dreams...what I must surrender to the universe/God is the outcome. Faith/acceptance that I will be fine either way. All I can do is my best

Same. And finding my purpose. Which people have said maybe we don’t have a “purpose”. Doesn’t make sense to me. :woman_shrugging: ODAAT
