Perhaps it's just me but I have this tendency to think that everyone is more together than I am. They are slightly better organised, slightly more sorted than I am. They know exactly where they're going and what they're doing whereas I'm just bumbling along, still trying to figure it all out.
It's nonsense, of course. Other people tend to be just as insecure and uncertain as I am - when it comes to having things figured out, I'm no better and no worse than anyone else. I don't want to imply that I enjoy other people's pain (I certainly don't) but it always comes as a bit of a relief to find that someone else, someone I thought had everything sorted, turns out to be a bit of a mess, too.
I wish I could remember that fact more than I do. It would only help to remember that we're all just trying to get along, as best we can.
