Something’s not right

I have given up now - no one can say it was not without a fight. But then no one on heaven and earth would give a damn anyway. I gave from the heart and it was a joy to help others. I felt such peace with that. I never did it for anything in return ever, I did it because I truly cared and felt so much genuine compassion towards others. I was promised dreams and peace would come true even though I never asked. It felt so good to know I made someone's lives a bit better.

Why is it that people like me are then faced with so much heartache, injustice, trauma and adversity that seeks to do everything in its power to destroy that good, to take the little good and peace I had, to utterly destroy me. Why?

I had always been there when possible others times of need - now that I truly need someone I have been all but abandoned by those I knew and those in the spirit. I realise now everything was a lie and feel utterless helpless and lost. I have lost everything and don't see the point in being here. I hope I don't wake up to another day of despair.

Re: -Enigma-

I am ruminating on a new social situation which is troubling me. Thought I would put it out there and ask for your comments. I met a lady in a choir who runs a recorder group and I started with them (3 rehearsals), but she is very controlling, oppositional and ambitious. I have been trying to do my "fit in" thing and blend and keep up. She paraphrases me incorrectly, and I am thinking of pulling out. She teaches littlies and knows I am a piano teacher, but has no sense of respect. Her husband and her run a studio and my son wants to set one up again with me. We are in different cities so she should not be rivalrous .. eye roll ... I accepted her leadership but feel she want to drill me into the ground to prove it.

I dont want to throw out the baby with the bath water ... often ... my issue ... sigh

I am thinking of sending a note ...but to both her and husband on the web site (tho private)... rather than just the private phone no and email I have of her. Her hub is rhthym section in the group. If she pulled her head in a bit and had respect I would cope.

Any ideas.

Thanks @outlander I sent email and am pulling out of group. My neck started to go along with sciatica. I have zero tolerance for stoopid oneupmanship. Its just the way it is for me now. Got a great concert on tonight and tomorrow. Two very different styles and groups so its exciting ... chin up... up and at 'em .. and all that.

Thank you @BlueBay

I pulled through. First concert was harder pain wise, but 2nd concert ended up being more fun as back began to settle.

I think it is about me calling out a mismatch and moving on quickly without investing too much energy or emotion into something that was flawed from the start. @outlander There are many opportunities.

Thinking of you @Former-Member Hope your sale and your daughter are going reasonably ...

Im glad both concerts were good @Appleblossom despite the pain
I think the way you handled it was quite well. Good on you for trusting in your own instincts.
