Kindle Notes & Highlights
However, we can cut the shit at a certain point. No one has a passion for an entry-level admin position; they have a passion for not living in their parents’ basement like a bridge troll in the children’s tale Three Billy Goats Gruff.
“Ya know, I work so hard because I’m trying to outrun death.”
I’m agnostic, and I deeply fear death because I don’t know if there is an afterlife. All I have is the now, and I’m terrified of running out of time and not getting a chance to do all the things that I want to do. So I work and work and work, because when I look back before I die, if I’m so lucky to have the opportunity to do so, I don’t want to regret anything in my career. So I’ll stay up until 5 A.M. if it means I can figure the wording perfectly on a new joke. The only problem was I wasn’t happy.
Everyday Health conducted their own survey of three thousand women in the US and discovered that a third of them are more afraid of loneliness than a cancer diagnosis.
And, finally, I grew to believe that a relationship isn’t a complete waste of time just because it doesn’t result in marriage.
You and your boo ain’t in the military, but when you’re in a relationship, watching a television series turns into a Band of Brothers situation in which you’re
not allowed to leave a man behind.
