On The Vision Board
“Do not relativize your pain.”
Deal with it as it is, with honesty and an inward focus. Seeing your struggle in light of someone else's is significant, but seeing it in comparison to another's is not. We aren't here to compare wounds or issues. We're here to relate and comfort one another through them. Your pain is significant because it is there in your life to be dealt with and healed. It is not there as source of shame because it lacks comparative detriment. Sort it out, be honest about it and allow it to heal.
