I've realized lately just how easy it could be to shut out everybody in my life and completely isolate yourself.

Hey Mel, you didn't have any comments so I thought I'd leave you one. I just got back from my cousin's funeral. He had a great life too, with a wonderful mother and hardworking father, a great ivy league education and a job as a lawyer. He travelled all over the world and married a beautiful woman who gave him 4 perfect children. But he wasn't happy and none of us really know why. We think he was depressed, or had anxieties that he didn't want to burden anyone with. He was always the guy who tried to make everyone else feel better and who never talked about his own problems.

Life is short and you are very blessed in your life, but that doesn't mean that it's going to be perfect all the time. Even when things seem great on the outside, you still might have internal struggles or worries. That is normal and honestly everyone goes through it. Sometimes it's harder to have a "perfect" life because it can seem like you don't have permission to have any doubts or weakness. I hope you can talk about these feelings with people you are close to, but if you can't you can always talk to me if you need to. I do not think you sound stupid!
