It sucks

 It really sucks when you are depressed and already feeling crappy, only to have someone that you love who is hurting and you cannot do anything about it. I have been hyper emotional and just overall blah and dealing with my own shit and recently learned that someone I love is going through a ton of potentially life changing issues, that you are powerless to stop, let alone fix.

I know that this is part of life and there's that whole serenity prayer "....grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change what I can, and the wisdom to know the difference..." and I am having to find comfort in that knowing that things will work themselves out, but at the same time, wanting to force the universe to yield to the needs of my loved ones.

I dont understand why things happen the way they do. How someone can put forth all of this effort to make a good life for themselves and without much though or consideration for the impact of the other. I understand psychopathic and sociopathic people do this all of the time, but it really angers me that I can not fix this situation, as that is my love language.
