I spent a month on a 6-page report. Compiled the data, adjusted it, revised it again. They didn't want to use it. And I was crushed. Not disappointed. Crushed. If you've felt that, you already know this feeling doesn't match the size of the moment.

A birthday party, a military unit, and 2 months of silence with someone I love. 3 rooms, 3 ages, the same thread running underneath.
