I can't complain but sometimes I still do
Oct. 29th, 2001 12:09 amAs noted above. My head knows that I have so many things going my way, so much that I'm lucky to have and to be. But deep inside I kick and I cry because everything feels so hard. I'm reminded that my all-year everything pass for public transport expires in two months. That's it. By then I need to be able to afford some form of transportation, preferrably being licensed. As stated yesterday, I have to find more/new work. Again, the thought goes through my mind that normal people are doing this every day. Then the thought goes through my mind that I should go to sleep before I have to be up for work.
I thank the Lady for all of my friends. They help me remember that it's worth it to try rather than just give up.

I get discouraged by incredibly small things at work, sometimes, like people with signature authority who disagree on the verbiage on my revisions of company documents. Occasionally I feel guilty about it, since I would not be handling unemployment with anywhere near as much poise as my unemployed friends are.
But never give up. You don't have to try all the time -- a breather is good and whining can be a relief -- but there's too much beauty in the world to give up on it. And you're right: we won't let you forget that we're worth it, even if the rest of the world isn't worth your time. ;)
