RE: "Introduce yourself" - I'm super excited about the possibility of existing in a Meritocracy
Great introduction. Thank you for expressing yourself with a video, so we can begin to know your backstory, your tone of voice, the transitions you're facing, your mermaid creative outlets... and I can relate with your story of Gen X, and the expectations we had with our education and commitments. The world is changing, yeah, and we are all in this together, so I sincerely hope you will grow together with us, through Steemit. Looking forward to seeing more of the art in you.
Thank you so much!
Hi again, I want you to know I like this post of your so much I highlighted it yesterday in a curated list:The Top #11 List. Hope this way you'll receive some extra views on this nice intro. Best wishes!
That is so kind of you. Thanks! There's so much I want to answer based on your previous comment but I can't access Steemit from work computer and it's too much to type from phone. I will answer later from home.
Rooting for your successes, including prosperity, and connections, and acceptance, and an overall sense of love and lightness.
Thank you. I wanted to say that there are a lot of us Gen Xers feeling this way, this shame for not achieving after hard work. We're a small generation between 2 larger ones and kind of got lost between 2 worlds. There are a lot of articles out there describing the psychology of us....so don't feel bad..and when you do go watch some John Hughes films and listen to some Depeche Mode and The Cure and you will feel sane again. <3
:) Yeah, it's a relatable story for sure. And John Hughes films definitely help! The Breakfast Club, Ferris Beuller’s Day Off, The Great Outdoors… Movie medicine made just for us Gen Xers.
