Thank you for awakening my motivation to write again. I've been absent for two weeks as I found this whole saga with the drop in earnings had affected my well-being and self-esteem.

My strategy when I'm hurting, is to hide away and self-reflect on how I can resolve the issue.

Reading this today reminded me I'm avoiding the very place where I can recover my equilibrium.
