I can't remember if I've told you this before, so I apologize if I'm repeating myself. I see life like like surfing; you ride the wave when things are good, and exciting and we're happy, because you know that inevitably, the wave will crash, but eventually, we also know that another wave will come.
Right now, your wave has crashed, and you're feeling useless and insignificant. Perhaps you can't change the world, but you can change some other more tangible things ... like how you're viewing yourself at the moment. Sorry if that sounds harsh, it's totally not meant that way <3
Did you ever hear the story of the guy who was walking on miles and miles of beach, picking up starfish that had been stranded there when the tide went back out? Along the miles were hundreds and hundreds of stranded starfish. Another man saw this guy and thought, how futile, so he said, "why bother throwing those back in? There's no way you can save all of them." And the guy replied, holding one starfish in his hand, "I can't make a difference for all of them, but I can make a difference for this one."
You have such a good heart @hitmeasap, and such good intentions, so hang in there, your wave will return. It always does. Trust in it.
Sending you a big hug :)
That story is really great, and it explains the whole point of my education and my approach in life in many ways actually. Thank you for sharing that @lynncoyle1, I appreciate it. :)
