Do not compare your chapter 1 in life with another person's chapter 12.
We all blossom at different phases.
We all bloom differently.
You don't know what the ones you are comparing yourself with are doing to be at their Chapter 12.
Just because your schoolmates are driving cars and living in posh neighbourhood is not a reason to hate on yourself and demean your life.
I am certain you have heard the famous phrase by Theodore Roosevelt that says "comparison is the thief of joy".
Right?
When we begin comparing ourselves to others, we start thinking we are inadequate, ineffectual and unhappy. We start to focus on what we lack instead of what we have.
This leads to a sense of dissatisfaction, anger and resentment towards ourselves.
Be proud of your chapter 1.
Life is very short and anxious for those who forget the past, neglect the present, and fear the future. ~ Seneca.
