"They only love you with the heart of a villain, not caring for your divine soul"

There have been times when I look at the achievements I've worked so hard to attain, and instead of pride, I am overcome by a strange sense of helplessness. It seems that in their eyes, my flaws are exaggerated to the extreme, while my strengths are diminished to the point of insignificance.

Each morning when I wake up, the greeting I receive is doubt - should I stop or should I keep trying, for I feel that my efforts are futile.

I am adrift, lost and cast about in that liminal space, silently watching as my soul fragments and gradually fades away, leaving me alone to sink into gloom...
