I know, I know. We deserve the courtesy of a response. We take the time to test, we are owed a response. Our children are starving, we need a response. All 100% true if that's what you feel.
However, life doesn't always come up roses, and we all need to work with what we're given. Maybe it's fate that people don't hear back. Maybe it's a sign. In the long run this, too, shall pass.
Everyone needs to take control of the things they can in life, and let go of the things they can't.
I work with a number of stage moms of little prima donas and they've given me a lot of perspective on the me! me! syndrome. I say to them often Life is not fair. It's not all about what you want, others deserve recognition, too. Relax. It only ticks them off, because they can't yet see the forest for the trees. They'll get it, someday.
(Getting off my soapbox now.)
