What does not get easier to handle in life? (kbin.melroy.org)

Seeing all that you grew up with, pass away. With the recent passing of James Earl Jones, I've said that the world is losing more color with the likes of him that passed.

Over the years, I've found that the things I've grown up with to know about with what they've done, what they've influenced and the chain of events that were caused because of them in a positive light, just vanish.

And I like others, have the unfortunate reality to hear and see them go away. Akira Toriyama, Kentaro Miura, Satoru Iwata, Leiji Matsumoto .etc

Those are few of the names I've listed as examples where moving on in life without them in the world is just a bit hard to get accustomed to. I mean, I guess the silver lining is that we'll be joining them someday soon since that's the cycle of life for you. But for now it just currently sucks.

One thing I don't see myself getting used to is seeing family getting older. Watching them not be able to do the things they want and occasionally losing their memory can be tricky to deal with

It feels like the amount of struggle is, somewhat, constant. But time seems to go by faster and faster, so there is less and less time to handle said struggle.

Rejection.

Life itself doesn't get easier until you learn how to make boundaries and life the way you really are. Ask anyone that has "come out" as gay, trans, or autistic. It sucks at first but life gets better once you learn who you are and stop being sorry for it.
