what if I didn't have acne- then I would feel guilty because other people are suffering and I'm not but I should be I was just lucky.

 

Hasn't anyone ever thought of that before? Doesn't anyone out there believe that things happen for a reason?

 

Why is one person born pretty and another born ugly, or with acne? One person born into a wealthy family and another born into a poor family?

 

Am I seriously the only one who thinks along these lines? Is that not logical?

If you want to feel guilty about something, there are FAR more important issues around the world that us 'privileged' folk do a great job of ignoring.

 

Do some research and perhaps your 'guilt' might lead you somewhere of worth.

Its not about feeling guilty for not having something bad.

Its not about being thankful for not having something bad either. Like can you say, "I am thankful that I didn't get acne like those people"? No it would not sound modest or considerate.

 

I think its more about just accepting the way things are.

Accept it if you have a deformed body.

Accept it if you don't have a deformed body.

 

Everything happens for a reason.

You know Rati, in all sincerity, after reading what you just wrote, I feel like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders.

 

I wish I could only learn to accept things as they are and stop fretting about everything being imperfect.

 

I know that things can never and will never be perfect in my life. It is the sad truth that I must accept.
