Caffeine, Pay days, and a false sense of hope.

Honestly? A mix of small things and stubborn hope.
Some days it’s big-picture stuff — wanting to build a life I’m proud of, become someone I respect, and not waste the time I’ve been given. Other days it’s way simpler: a good conversation, music that hits just right, laughing with the right people, or even just getting through a tough day and knowing I didn’t quit.
I think what really keeps me going is the idea that life can still surprise me. No matter how stuck things feel, there’s always a chance something good, meaningful, or unexpected is around the corner — and I don’t want to miss it.

I have nieces that might not need me but I want to work to make their lives easier. But they are good to me. I also give or get money for people that need it. Outside of that, I’ve tried traveling but honestly I prefer being at home. When I travel, I find I only eat and spend more than I should and living in a larger, diverse area there really isn’t any food I don’t have access to locally. And I don’t need to spend more. Some days I feel unremarkable but never unloved or forgotten so I guess that helps. I have to tell myself that sometimes before getting up and reminding myself why I am going today. At this stage, I look at what my work does but I also fear a vacation that doesn’t fulfill me either. I also have some great friends and colleagues that make life fulfilling. But there are days I have to push myself to go and as you age, it’s not easier.

My kids, if not for them I don't know where I'd be. I've had a lot of dark periods in my life, but my children really light up my world.

Mostly inertia at this point. I’ve already come this far, might as well see how it ends.
