One thing no one ever talks about but it always bothered me. When you are born into a privileged family and that family plus other people constantly have to remind you of it as if you are the worlds most ungrateful, spoiled brat. Am I? I don’t think I act that way and have made efforts not to be that way.
I just want to say I feel so immensely blessed to have the life I do. I have gone through horrible things that most people are unaware of so I never bring it up so it’s null to this and only a tainted corner of my own life but it speaks to what people don’t see when they see my life.
It feels like a scolding sometimes, I know that I didn’t earn it but I also didn’t ask to be born into it. I just was. I am so grateful for what I have and I hate how grovely I have to sound to not sound like a brat.
Would love to have an open discussion about all this so me know if anyone can relate or even talk about the opposite experience. I want to hear other perspectives and how everyone else handles this.
