I bought a new used high end plasma TV today and just finished calibrating it. Now I'm going to prepare a cup of tea and watch a movie.

What do you have going on?

Well tbh, I have a pretty high self esteem. But this year has really tested me and I've faltered a lot. I think I've destroyed a beautiful relationship and really hurt a woman I care deeply for

More so than needing to feel love for myself, I'm just sad that I was weak. I've pushed myself 110% this year. Meanwhile person after person I sought support from ended up not being their for me

My professional goals were completely ruptured from the networking restrictions with covid. And my mental health has never been lower

BTW you never explained plasma calibration

This will take you into the world of TV calibration https://youtu.be/LfmtSNyt6V4

Just remember life is ups and downs. There will be good years and bad years alike. It is and always will be that way for everybody on this planet, you are not alone.

Whenever I am personally going through something like you've described I try to keep something very important in mind: often times in life when you think you are going through something terrible in reality something great is happening. It just may take you time to realize this.

I've lost jobs. At the time it seemed terrible but I ended up finding better jobs.

I've destroyed good relationships. At the time it seemed terrible but I ended up meeting someone I like even more.

I think you probably understand the point I'm trying to make but I would bet my life one day you'll look back in the future and realize that this was actually a good year for you because it ended up leading to better things and made you stronger.

Life has a funny way of teaching us lessons.

Very cool

Perhaps you're right. Or perhaps this will be the crippling blow.

I'll take it as what it is for now. This year has just been a bastard and I don't have the energy to do anything any more

Thanks for the words stranger. I'll be thinking of them
