This is so wonderful! thank you so much for sharing. Every young person should read this. The beauty of age, is shedding the insecurities of youth. For that I'll gladly take a few wrinkles and a little gray hair.
Glad to hear other people get stuck in dead-ends once in awhile. Even though it's missing the happy end, it gave me a little more confidence to endure. Thank you.
This story is so impactful, and the humanism in the hand drawn letterforms make it feel real and close to your heart as you read. Every young professional in this industry can relate to this.
My God. mygodmygodmygod. This is just fantastic. When I got to the line toward the end about needing $2,000, I actually felt a catch in my breath.
Oh, you.
