Got advice? Fuck that. Sometimes it's easier said than done.
Advertisements [?]
Sometimes the answers are obvious, but the journey ahead is paved with self-doubt and anger. Sometimes what seems so logical doesn't materialize because you're weighed by emotional baggage.

So if you're in that position, and a person gives you advice that is so obvious when all you're looking for is encouragement and support - DAILY support - in venturing forward in that direction, fuck that person. They're not really listening to you. They're just treating you operationally when all you need is a good kick in the butt and a check-in now and then. And hugs. Many, many hugs. And band-aids when you fall, because you'll fall once in a while.

And that is all I have to say on the matter. Thanks for reading.

Writer.
