What are you grateful for?

[Elegy]

you're proabably right. I guess my exposure to these people in homelessness included murderers, rapists, traffickers, child abusers, wife beaters and women who support them. Sometimes I'm glad that people are disabled so they're not allowed to go out and hurt more innocdent people. They have ganged up on me, killed my pets, stalked me, made me fear for my life, behave like a brotherhood, stand by their man and in a lot of circumstances, scare me.

i ran for my life from domestically violent people and am still being threatened with murder for leaving and walking away from family, accusing men of rape. It's made and kept me suicidal for years now.

I am biased, you are accurate.

I rest my case Robin. You are blatantly prejudice against both disabled persons, and the homeless. Both of which I am, and have been.
Also I am male, which you also clearly detest.. Madam Feminist.

You know, I felt kinda bad about harshing on you. I was thinking I should be more understanding and compassionate toward suicidal people. And I thought, maybe this person is schizophrenic, not a scammer, or messing with my mind for shits n giggles. Trolling me. And the last thing I thought was... I probably know you.

So. Do I know you Robin? Have we spoken before, outside SS?
Do you also go by another screen name that starts with an R?

I am grateful for the innate beauty I witness in nature, for audiobooks I get through my library, fluffy socks that keep my feet warm, and my dog even if he doesn't really like me

The only thing I can really say is my family.

Not being blind, deaf, malnourished, or homeless.

Access to clean water, food, healthcare, and internet.

Going almost a full day without any mind numbing pain.

Being able to eat food again without getting ill or nauseated.

The ability to remain independent, self-sufficient, and cognitively present.

A whole bunch of stuff. I have friends and family. I have a really good therapist, and meds that don't do nothing. I have a job and roof over my head. I know I have things a lot better than many people.

I mean, none of it really matters, but I *am* grateful.

I am grateful for my almost 6 month old son, he's kept me here after going through absolute HELL the past year (and that's not even counting before when the depression was at it's worst).
I am grateful to have my best friend and her mother.
I am grateful to have a place to live.
I am grateful for my one surviving cat (My other cats and my dog didn't make it out of a house fire that my dad started when he was mad at me back in May).

So sorry for your traumatic experiences. You have a lot to be proud of with still finding things to be grateful for despite all of that. I wish you peace and hope you can find true joy in this life.

My little sister. I had to basically raise her, but I'm so proud of who she has become. She's the light of my life.
