Day 8: Things That Make You Sad

Ok, for this post and the next one to come, I think I'll just make a list of the things that the challenge requests.  I think it's easy to get across, and simple to post, because if I explained why every single thing makes me sad, it would be a really long post.

Well, hopefully not too long. :)

  • Seeing the people I love upset
  • Not knowing what to do next
  • Not getting accepted into the college I want to go to
  • Seeing people I love hurt themselves
  • People who are confused and struggling internally
  • Not knowing how to help somebody
  • Getting in trouble
  • Disappointing my parents
I am realizing reading this, that my sadness comes a lot from the troubles of others, or me affecting somebody negatively. I notice when someone is telling me things that they are going through, I am very sympathetic towards that, and I almost take it upon me like it's my own burden to carry and try to wrestle with the emotions they are going through.  I almost make it my own issue.  I guess that's why other people's sadness affects me this way.  If they're upset, it makes me a little upset.  Because who wants the people they love to be upset?
