Life is full of suprises, no? Sometimes the things that we fight, strive, and suffer for never seem to amount to what we had initially expected. I can't say I completely understand your ordeal in it's entirity, simply because I'm young and never fully been to where you are at this facet of life. But I know this- you can't live your life for somebody else, and sometimes all you've got is you. That should, despite how guilty it may make you feel, be your top priority. I don't always see you doing this. I know you're a giver, and it may be what you think makes you happy. But when you give so much for somebody else, sometimes you lose just what it is that brings you contentment. I've learned this lesson a time or two, and whether I've grown from it or not is still up for debate. But I know I've at least learned how to recognize it, and sometimes that's a great leap into changing.

You are worth so much, to me, to your family, to those around you. I don't think you completely fathom the idea, and it's a damn shame, honestly. Do what makes you feel whole, what makes you feel like you're alive and not just going through the motions of everyday feeling. I'm not saying we should all take the mundane for granted, far from that- but perhaps this "norm" you've found yourself in is not the one that will lead to ultimate happiness. You are one of the most deserving and genuine people I've evr come across in this life, and you may call be biased, but I've known a lot of people. Please don't sell yourself short, please don't forget that some of us love you regardless of what you do, and always remember to live for you. You'll probably find that you life seem a lot longer when it's full of hope.
