See, Mark, this is where I've always disagreed with people who compare people's problems with others. As if we can't grieve or wallow in our own difficulties because there's always someone who has it worse. Yes, that's true and I'm grateful that my hardships aren't the worst but they're also not the best and they are personal to me and since I'm worthy, they matter. Please don't ever underestimate your importance to feel what you feel without explanation or apology. That being said I love how you describe those suffering hardship in admiring ways.
