The odd of celebrating days

It is an odd thing we do when we single out a subgroup and celebrate days. Not wrong but odd. There is never going to be a day for those who don't fit the categories.

I don't hate the days... We ought to celebrate people. 

Mothers, fathers, lovers, veterans, these are all examples of people we should celebrate.  Birthdays are a tailored made celebration of living, at least we all have that... ( And if you want to argue that you don't... You can leave a reply lol)

Happy Mother's Day..

Tho this is not really a post about that either. 

No I'm feeling out of it because I am not a mother. Not by choice. I don't talk about things very often, I don't think my life or marriage has suffered any for not having kids, but the reality is we can't have kids.  It's complicated, but that will do for now. It's not just Mother's Day where the idea of being married without kids is  kind of hard for people to comprehend I am no social anomaly but I certainly do not fit within categories we tend to apply, I'm not single, I'm not a young adult, I'm not elderly, I don't work, and worse than not working, I am on disability. For some reason, being disabled and still able to 80% of the time function cognitively puts me in a position where because I do not fit in, I miss out.

I suffer from depression as well as all that, and you can imagine it makes things tricky.

I don't have a solution. I have no idea what to do, but if you are like me, you realise other people might need to be seen, noticed and appreciated. Random act for someone... A smile, a meeting of the eyes...  Even the little things count.

If you somehow stand in the same position as me, and don't fit into the neat categories, you might be happy to know you are not alone.
