It's tempting to compare your life to others, to compare your struggles to what other people may be going through. The easy thing to do is to become a victim, to give up, and feel sorry for yourself. However, you have no idea what some other people are facing in their lives. It's easy to guess by what you see, but you may not see the whole story. People have a good way, sometimes, of covering up the battles they face.
Theodore Roosevelt is credited as saying, "Comparison is the thief of joy." Everybody has their own race to run. You may have some of the same circumstances as others, and you may share some of the same challenges, but you have your own path.
Let this day be a time where you embrace your own challenge. Meet your struggles head on. Don't ignore, and don't compare. Stay strong.
