I hit a bird today while driving. Its the first time iv ever hit anything. I couldn't have avoided it even if I tried. And if I could have tried, I would have. I watched it roll on the road behind me before another vehicle flattened it, which it also couldn't have avoided. It was just a really crappy sequence of events. But it's had me feeling pretty down all day. Iv had a nap, but I still feel bad about it. I know there was nothing I could have done to avoid it happening but I still feel bad.

People keep telling me I shouldn't feel bad, that's its okay and don't worry about it. Like it was a receipt that blew out my hand. I do feel bad, and my feelings a valid. It's how I feel. No amount of telling me to feel otherwise is going to change that.
