I don't think so. I was born and raised here but the pressure of living is to great. I would probably be better off on a deserted island living in a hut. I graduated high school. 3 years of college, 3 1/2 years military honorable discharge, no criminal record. But the problem is I'm not spectacular. I'm not special. Any advice?!?!?

No one is "special" anymore. It's kind of hard to stand out in a crowd of 2.5 billion (that's just America). Be there for your family and friends, they're the only ones who will care when you're gone.

Why are you so hard on yourself? You seem very accomplished. I would consider yourself an American if you were born and raised here. You've served for the United States of America. You are spectacular! You should hold your head high and be proud of who you are. I'm not sure that I could give you any advice, but I do know that I feel down in the dumps sometimes too...everybody has times like that. Good Luck with all this and I hope that you get to feeling better.

WOW, sounds like you have low self esteem. Many of us feel that we are not spectacular. The thing is that maybe your the type that can do a good deed and not need to be in the spot light and get all the attention for it. There is a book Purpose Driven Life, basically what is my purpose. Give it a try. You may touch peoples lives in ways you just don't know...Give yourself more credit!!

Wow! You sound pretty spectacular to me! Not too many men can say they have gone to college or that they have served their country! Still, your life is just starting! There are so many opportunities out there for you, just don't give up! You sound like you might be depressed. You should try talking with your doctor, or a counselor to see if they can help you. What do you dream of doing? Set some attainable goals and work your way toward your dreams! You can do it! Don't get discouraged!

Yes I have advise : look in the mirror and what do you see - be honest.
You see a Man. A man who has accomplished quite a lot.You have three
distinctive phases in your young life which you have mastered and if you set your mind to it, your future will be a success -I am convinced of it.
Why do you want to be 'spectacular'? If you want to establish a family
most young ladies prefer a solid, dependable man over one that is spectacular.
What you need now?: Go on an extensive vacation! You need to get away from things. You have worked hard (my compliments!) and have reached your goals. Now its time to reflect,to recharge, to make new plans.
Good luck to you!
In my eyes you are an American Hero!

Who told you that you were not spectacular, not special?
Don't go to a deserted island, just find other people to be around you instead of those that put those negative thoughts in your head!

Everyone is special. Not everyone needs to be spectacular. Do the best you can with what you have!! And find a cause you admire and volunteer some of your time to help out. It will make you feel better about yourself

If Rosie O'Donnel is good enough to be an American, an honorable discharge is more than adequate qualification.
Who said you had to be spectacular?

Everyone is special in their own way and you should accept you for the way you are.
If you were raised here and all that other stuff than yes .I believe u r good enough.What every made you feel that way that "I'm not special" ...It doesn't matter.
Remeber "Accept things for who you are"
