Things I learnt along the way.

Sometimes the sadness takes over.

Sadness_01b

Sometimes the sadness takes over.

Not depressed.
Just sad.

Somewhere deep inside.

Work life.

No support.
No one to share things with.
No one to listen.

Sometimes I think I should just give up and quit.

But it's the job I love.

The job I wanted.
The job I was aiming for.

For a long time, I didn't even think of it as a job.

It was something I loved doing.
Something I was passionate about.

I was always willing to stretch a little further.
Learn a little more.
Take on a little more.

And then, somewhere along the way:

My questions.
No answers.

My concerns.
No answers.

Me stretching beyond my own limits.
Still no answers.

And slowly, something changed.
The work didn't.

I still love what I do.

But it hurts to care this much and feel this alone in it.

It makes me sad.

Not angry.
Not today.

Just sad.

And I find myself asking the same question again:
What am I still doing here?
