Always been second best.
16 years ago
I have a dream… ok well I had a dream a few nights ago and I must admit it was very disconcerting. I’m not one to grope or dwell on past issues but last night I realized all through my life I’ve been second best to someone else.
Yes of course I agree that there will always be someone that knows more than you or someone who is better than you in some way at something.
In my dream I saw myself as a child been shafted from a game of tag, excluded from many other activities along the way as well as been disregarded in a national science competition mainly because of the color of my skin. “No racial undertone in that last comment.”
But the worse I recall, to date is when someone I care about, someone I still think very highly of chose someone else over me on the basis of distance. Yes I have been second best many a time with regards to relationships and boy hood crushes, but I guess that is why they call it a crush.
You begin to question what made that other person choose the other, what makes the other person so much better than yourself. The answer is you don’t know and that is life. Thankfully the human spirit does not allow one to give up so easily and with the idea of hope in mind one realizes it was never meant to be and I am happy with this realization.
I’ve always sensed if something is too good to be true it cannot last or it is a double edged sword. Thankfully this person and I are now still good friends and when I think about it friendship means more to me anyway.
With that said I love my mate
nanukk dearly and I’m so happy to find someone that cares so much for me. *Licks*

May the fur be with you... Always.
Everyone has their own special place in life. Its sad when people feel they are second best to everything and anything becasue I assure you. You are better at something compared to me.
The real downer is when you let yourself waste away. Dont use inadequacy as a reason not to succeed. You are special to someone out there. Live life and love yourself and you will be able to live a long and great life that will make you a blessing to otheres..
