Day 1469: Do you constantly compare your journey to that of others?

Everybody’s journey is different comparing my journey to that of others is unfair to me – that’s what I keep realizing.

 

It’s 1 : 16 PM on day 1469 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, brush my teeth, read Proverbs 7, publish my Disability of the Day feature,  publish my Kid of the Week feature feed myself egg with bread and a banana  for breakfast and listen to music – now playing “Ghost” by Ella Henderson.

 

Today I heard somebody’s good news and instead of being happy for him I felt a pang of jealously sometimes when I hear that someone who is close to me in age has bought a house or is getting married I can’t help thinking what have I done [with my life] which I now know is hugely unfair to me because I too have done amazing things with my life. Do you constantly compare your journey to that of others?
