I've been doodling quite a lot recently. It helps take my mind off things that are troubling me. I can get sucked into a doodle like the one above and for a little while, all the stresses of life dissipate.
I can almost forget that I don't have a real full time job in my field after I worked so hard to attain a degree in Fashion Merchandising that is seemingly useless at the moment. I can almost forget that my mother is no longer here to boost my confidence or give me advice or tell me everything will work out eventually. I can almost forget that I'm living at home with my father struggling to make ends meet.
I can almost forget. Almost.
I may be lost right now but I know I will be metaphorically found someday soon. I know I'm not alone in my struggle to achieve my goals and realize my dreams. With support from my family and friends and with perseverance and determination, I will be found.
