DEAR ANNIE: I’m writing to share my feelings about giving up and just being done. I’ve come to the conclusion that nothing really means diddly anymore, going from day to day in an effort to find happiness and the illusion of caring in anybody. No one gives a rip.
I feel so guilty for feeling blue and depressed. I’m so blessed in life. I have a nice home, successful kids, good retirement, stuff -- and comparing this to others who struggle day to day -- guilt! Yet the internal blah is there nonetheless. All I see around me are other angry Americans anymore. Angry on the road. Angry in the stores. Angry over politics. Short! Rude! Untrusting. Scammers. Liars. Like it’s all expected. Fraud insurance for profit. Schemes. No one has any regard for anyone else. The attitude is, “I’d better get it before some other guy does.”
DEAR DONE WITH IT: No matter how blessed or fortunate we are in life, it’s not abnormal to feel down from time to time -- especially considering the difficulties we’ve all faced these last few years. But just because the world is full of angry people doesn’t mean you have to be one of them.
