Reading Viktor Frankl’s man search for meaning really helped me. I also sought professional help for a time.
My take away is that pain and suffering can have meaning and that meaning, that power of experience, can be a gift of intercession for others.
Your last sentence is telling, “it’s not real unless I share it with someone else.” Don’t wait. Time isn’t the answer. No one is promised tomorrow. Your experience is a superpower now that can be a gift to another person.
The golden rule is diagnostic, you will love others the way you love yourself.
Finally, learn how to make really good tacos. I’m Mexican so I’m biased but maybe if you’re not Mexican your people have a beautiful food too that you can learn how to make and share with others. If not, we freely have open sourced the taco for all peoples so feel free to start there. The gift of good food and caring conversation is one of the best parts of being alive.
My best to you and may you be abundantly blessed.
