No one clapped for me at graduation

I feel ya. Family didn't want to come for my graduation. We planned a party but it never happened. I ordered garduation pics because my parents told me to since they wanted to send them out to relatives and put them around their house. I had to pay for them myself though and when they finally came through the mail, my parents said they didn't look good and didn't want to send them to my other family members. The pics have been sitting in their envelope in the bottom of my dresser drawer since then a couple years ago when it all happened. I hate the pics because it reminds me of how worthless I feel and how little I matter to the people I thought would care about me the most. I don't want to toss them though since I feel that if I do, they'll win. That tossing them would just confirm to me that they're (me) worthless.
