I believe in the ebb and flow of life. Some times are better---some are not. I remember an old coach I used to have who always preached, "Winners never quit--and quitters never win." Well, I'll bet he was never BP---but that is a good quote to model life by. If you've ever been fishing----you probably know how the size of the fish caught last year grows with each passing year. Sometimes I remember how beautiful the teacher was in grade school---when , in fact, there was nothing extraordinary about her in hindsight. I guess the point I'd like to make is that your worth is not based on your intellectual prowess----dear God I hope not. People , well some people, say that some races are not as smart as others. Well what's that got to do with anything? You're smarter than a child or a pet ----yet does that mean that you s\don't love them with every fiber of your being? That you'd give your life in exchange for their's? You have made lot's of friends here on Babble and I see no reason you can't make them in real life. Life will not end if you don't wind up being the president of Harvard or Yale---and anyone who judges you by that measuring stick is not worthy to be a real friend anyway. Man---believe me when I tell you that I know the feeling well. I hope that things improve and that , at the very least, you become satisfied one day----whatever that requires. Cling to hope and self preservation----and I trust you will---that's why we're all still here posting---I think. I know you're dealing with a host of emotions right now---but lot's of folks are pulling for you---I know I am. That's all...
