What people are saying
I do have a profound sadness that this dream that I had as a little girl, I outgrew or just didn't work out or is fading away
The constant grief of feeling undervalued, unwanted, unchosen and scared is more harmful.
There are good things, and I do love it. I do love what I do.
It's so hard to decide, and I think that's what you're seeing now is my uncertainty in real time
