One other thing I'm going to use this latest downturn to do: keep working on separating my sense of worth from my situation.
Canada was exhausting, because I was surrounded by people who wanted to know why a person with my so-called intelligence couldn't find financial stability. Everyone want to figure out what was wrong with me, that I couldn't "make it" and still flew solo.
Here, though, there's no myth of meritocracy. You work hard--we all work hard--and there still aren't any guarantees.*
Ha. And there's a typo in the above, but I do not care.
The typo stays in.
G'night, all!
Good~night @MLClark ✨ 🌙 Sleep well 😴 💤 💕
Goodnight, @MLClark 😴
As for the typos - I've been keeping most of mine. Partly because the posts that have them have already received likes/boosts and partly to prove I'm not AI (ok, I just made the second part up, but I'm going with it because it sounds plausible 👍 )
@MLClark Good to keep it separate. Glad you’ve discovered this before 60. lol.
Sweet Dreams✨ to you. 💕
