Or the line from Matthew Good's "Omissions of the Omen" which I used to listen to on repeat in my first year of university when I studied for nasty chem/physics/bio/calculus midterms:
"And somewhere around the world
Someone would love to have my first world problems"
I am LUCKY in my problems, I am. This early-30s crisis of mine will pass. Life isn't a novel where I can flip to the back to find out the ending and then leisurely read the rest to find out how we got there. I gotta live it chronologically and cross my fingers that usually time is the ultimate healer.
And, in vino vertias. ;)

There is a quote that I keep seeing these days that brings me comfort when I am feeling down.
You have to give up on living the life you planned and start living the life you were meant to live.
Or something like that.
I try to remind myself of how lucky I am too. It's easy to lose perspective sometimes.
Love you, sweetie. Keep on keeping on - inasmuch as we're all very lucky, sometimes it can feel hard too.
I need this often, and to some degree I get it when I see what so many of our students overcome. Humbling. I'm thinking of you though and hoping you feel better soon. x
