I watched a sad video on a young boy living with a condition of his skin being as delicate as a butterfly's wings. He suffers in pain and wonders why he has to go through this while others can enjoy their daily lives. Made me cry and feel horrible that I just have depression and anxiety to deal with while he has a real condition. But also secretly glad that I don't have something as serious as his condition. He does enjoy the time with his friends which pull away from the pain and make him forget it.

thank you I always forget that depression that I have is just as tough to anyone that has any injuries. I will feel better and I will continue to pray for this boy to live a long life.

Hi First Time,

Carl is correct,

never discount your own pain, but be thankful for what you have . Many of feel they you do when we see things of this sort.

Peace

I think it teaches us compassion when we see others who are much worse off than ourselves. But as was posted above, we are suffering too. We are all a work in progress. Don't sell yourself short. But do take to heart what you saw on tv. We need to care about others.

Hugs, Karen...
