emo, but true
Mar. 24th, 2008 11:38 pmI have come to the unfortunate conclusion that I am not ambitious because I'm ambitious, but because I'm afraid if I fail no one will love me.
My ambition has gotten very big in the last few years, and I've done very well with it, but I've had a hard couple of weeks, and I'm not in the best state.
Patty, however, aside from being kind, helpful, reasonable, good, and all teh stuff I don't talk to you all about, FOUND MY MISSING PASSPORT.
That's one huge nightmare off my plate.
Seriously though, you can never be too old to have a "guess I'm not the person I thought I was" moment, but it's so damn taxing.

Date: 2008-03-25 04:26 am (UTC)My gut reaction to a revelation like that would be to deliberately fail--at something major, but not life-shattering, please note--and then wait to see what happens.
Your mileage, of course, may vary.
