A teacher comforted me with these words
I hope they are a consolation to those who have felt unneeded, insignificant or unloved:
you'll never be insignificant--- and be careful about needing to be needed. being loved and being needed are not the same thing. being important to others is better than just being needed.
lighten up--- be a kid--- go take pictures--- write a poem---- practice your college essays---- run around the block on a nice day---- notice the sunset (or the sunrise) --- empower yourself!
