Thanks for letting me I’m not alone in my feelings of inadequacy. I almost dread the possibility of getting asked “so, what are you doing for work?” I’m drifting in life, trying to work remotely and feeling like I’m not getting anywhere.

Around me, people seem to be doing well, or so much more resourceful than I am. Blogs start making money in 6 months and writers on medium make hundreds while I make a few bucks. Sometimes I wonder if my mom’s embarrassed her daughter’s like that.

If we’re not careful, life can really break us down. But you’re right, we’re doing the best we can with what we have. I think we need to cut ourselves some slack.

All the best to you in the new year and the years to come! I hope we can both make peace with ourselves.
