scale of -10 to +10, how do you feel right now?

10 ... Note to self: Please don’t EVER let a man tell you that because you’re different, you’re NOT worthy. Take time to properly examine and realise the damage “he” can do to your self esteem, but NEVER allow him to map out the rest of your life, especially if you’ve been successful in what you’ve achieved on every level ... and own your own home, have a family and know what it means to truly love someone!

Excellent "note," Juliette!

^^ Thank you both.

^ TY MG ... you and Milkster mean the world to me. You both helped so much.

Thanks Mark - that means alot.

6. A lot of trivial stresses stew in my subconscious that I can't get rid of despite my efforts, though slowly but surely, I'm heading towards better circumstances.

The progress is slow, but hope when I reach my set goal, it will be worthwhile.

I am losing all my friends.

-5. People are so stigmatizing towards unemployed people.

It's one of those times where how I feel right now is, "It depends, pick a thing and I'll tell you how I feel about that thing."
