And someone, somewhere, was having an even worse time of it than me. I tried to keep that in mind. No matter how crappy your life, someone will probably beat you in the my-life-is-crap category. Not that I don't let myself whine a little now and then, but sometimes it's good to keep your misery in perspective Lish McBride
About This Quote

Sometimes when we are in a period of depression, we can become our own worst enemies. We get so caught up in the darkness that we forget that life is going to happen for everyone else. Someone somewhere is probably going through a worse time than you, but they probably aren't wallowing in self-pity either. Not everything happens for a reason, there is a reason why some people have it worse than others. Sometimes it takes us being more accepting of the idea that things will happen to us and other times it takes us being willing to let go of the idea that we have any control over them at all.
