How are you doing?

Terrible. I hate the holidays, from Halloween to Christmas... I used to love this time of year but throughout the years, memories have clouded my happiness. Everyone in my family is flourishing and very successful. My brother just got a raise, my other brother got promoted. My parents both got promoted recently as well. This year seems to have been their greatest year yet. Meanwhile, I'm in the same place I was last year with no change aside from losing my car... I wish I could see the happiness on my mom's face when I give her new Nike, or help put money towards a graphics card for my brother's PC. Im happy for them, but hate myself for where I am...
