Unwanted

Have you ever felt just unwanted? Like no one even wants to talk to you let alone hang out with you or be around you?

I often wonder if people would like me more or other people would want to be my friend if I was prettier, taller, skinnier, more talented, smarter, funnier, sluttier. Something. Anything.

Tonight while driving to the store I realized something. I realized that I have envisioned myself being in a car accident multiple times. Have you ever done that? Just wondered what it would be like... the sudden impact? The noises? And then I start to wonder what people would come to the hospital to visit me. Would anyone care that I was there?

Would anyone even notice if I was gone?

The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted. ~Mother Theresa
