Ehhh a single step closer to your goal is still progress.

The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step ..... unless you were born rich, then you start the journey at mile 999

A person who traveled is still a traveler, regardless of distance. Just because others have made it further, that doesn't negate your own progress.

Same thing with emotions. A person who is sad is allowed to be sad, even if someone else in the world might have it worse.
