6. If you don't have to take it

don't take something that doesn't feel right. I quit my job, a good job, (long story), but I thought I was strong enough to brave it. Alot of people were doing it, not of their choice. I knew there was something for me, unfortunately all I got was what you were offered. I swore if I could just get in the door, I would work on creating the rest. It's hard, very hard, I'm upside down, but for once I'm so happy about getting a paycheck, in the past I loved what I did and the paycheck was secondary. I'm working hard on getting a handle on it all, and being back in control of my destiny. Maybe I should be learning something from all of this, but I don't think so. This is my life and I have to try to take it back. If you could hold out for something better, wait. I gave in and it's taking a toll on me. But I know this is a crossroad for me, to see what I really want. I'm just too tired to veer it right now.
