What if I was born later in life?

The story

Like the tittle I’m asking myself, what if I was born later in life? Back story my parents were both in high school when they had me. So life was interesting my mom graduated school early to be able to work, and my dad continued school to “make a better life for us”. I wished for a lot when I was young especially toys but even how much my parents and grandparents tried to make me happy, I still couldn’t feel content. And now I’m in my teens my parents broke up and married other people and now I have step siblings and cousins. And every day I live my life saying “what if I was them?” Being able to buy everything they want, having their parents be able to afford everything they could ever wish for? I’m jealous of them EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY for having ADULT parents. What if JUST what if I was them…?

Ugh seriously, I think (for me... :-) ) you're missing the point; life's not about having rich parents or buying stuff; it's a journey of self-discovery and growth!


Lots of folks have parents who struggled but turned out okay; consider J.K. Rowling had hardships before Harry Potter blew up. I had to work part-time jobs in school—zero parental help—but it made me tough and independent ❤️


You gotta focus on your own path; stop wishing for what you don't have and start appreciating what's ahead.

I totally get where you're coming from!!! 😟 It can be frustrating seeing others with more opportunities. Your feelings are valid, and it's okay to wish your circumstances were different. Just remember, your experiences have made you who you are today!!! 😉 Life has a way of working out, and sometimes the struggles make you stronger. Hang in there, and focus on your goals; you have the potential to create an amazing future for yourself!!! Just keep pushing!!! 💪
