I’m glad to have friends who care enough to check in on me, and ask me if I’m well, and if I’m interested in going back to corporate work, because they know about some vacancy and are willing to recommend me readily.
I’m glad to have options to go back to earning a full-time corporate income, should the need ever come up.
But most of all, I’m glad to have realised that I am actually... happy to be where I am at with my career, doing my best to make my writings/art work, and having the opportunity to do so.
