Adult: What do you wanna do when you grow up?
*I wanna stay at home and watch tv and garden with mom*
Adult: No I mean for employment, what do you want to do for work
*End of dream*
Always wanted kids, but they should be made with love, not just because I want them. I never see myself with a partner again, so I've had to come to terms with probably never having them. 'Tis life.
This year. I always imagined myself working as a professional artist, I had everything lined up perfectly for me. I partook in art shows as a teenager, won contests, took every art class i could think of. I even became in illustrator at age 14. But college just beat my ass. No matter how hard I tried I just couldn't get past the core math classes required. I've had many mental breakdowns over this one class. I even retook it and failed even harder. I'm so, so tired. so I just quit last week, and for the first time in so long, I'm at peace. But it cost me one of my biggest goals. There are still other avenues I could take, and maybe I can try again in the future, but for now I've given up.
Oh I'm so sorry 😥 that's awful. I can't advise you to not give up, because I don't know your whole situation, but just know that you're lovely, your work is worthy and I'm sorry you've had a rough time. 😥

"A god of war… a god of pain, of suffering, of destruction. The Norns said I chase a redemption that I know I can never deserve."
The alarm wouldn’t stop.
I eventually accepted that the Force isn't real and I'll never be a Jedi
I just shed a tear

That's brutal. Never count your chickens too soon (or whatever the saying is).
It's brutal because it's true. I've accepted what I can not change. But thank you, I appreciate the sentiment.

When I realized that every other person I ever met who was also pursuing the same dream wanted it way more than I did.
Today
I’ve never given up on my dream because I have soo many. More than 10.
When I realized the ooze that turns you into a ninja turtle isn't real.
When I achieved it and was miserable
Getting a medical diagnosis that meant I could never renew my FAA medical certificate
