Tears on my pillow in My this and that

Today I am thankful for a new day.

I had a rough night last night. I had felt slighted by a family member. It seemed to me that they didn't think very highly of me, or consider my feelings. I ignored it for most of the day, but with the night comes time to dwell on the hurts of the day. I prayed a lot, because I KNEW that this person didn't mean to make me feel the way I did... but I couldn't corral my emotions into the same school of thought.

And so I cried myself to sleep.

At one point I left bed to lay on the couch so I could cry more freely. I don't like crying with Ben around so much. He doesn't know what to do, and really I know I'm crying over trivial things anyway. He came and found me and told me to come back to bed. Then he held my hand until he fell asleep.

Today is better. The person apologized which was nice, even though they didn't really do anything wrong. They may have hurt my feelings, but I knew it was because they were trying to look out for another family member... and I can't fault them for that.
