No One Owes Us Anything
Feeling sorry for ourselves may be justified. The point is we should not get stuck in a pity party because it can drag us down. We may think, The world must compensate me for my suffering. We may then wait for good luck to come knocking, and be angry at the world for not delivering what we think we deserve. No one owes you anything. Fortunately, people pitch in during times of misfortune, but they don't owe it to you. If they don't fulfill your expectations, you have no right to be resentful. Feeling hurt is understandable, but we must move on in life.
