Tell me again what it feels like so all who came would hear. Tell all your friends and family what happens when they're near. Tell them how it makes you feel when they all gather without you, when you sit alone and stare at your phone so you have something to do. Tell them like you told me that it makes you feel estranged, that recognition makes a difference but not enough to feel a change. That yes you know you have to include yourself that you have to take a step of your own. But that that doesn't negate the fact that the truth is they left you there all alone. - CharityAnne
