“I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant. It is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are.”

Dysthymia

     I’m feeling insecure with my language and teaching skills. The more I teach, the more I want to cringe in self-pity and helplessness. The more I work in this profession, the less I feel the joy. It seems like whatever I set myself to do backfires in the end. Whatever passion I had eventually trickles to nothing. I feel ashamed of myself; I feel like a hole void of light and hope. I have emptied myself of the remaining meager life that I created back in time when I was still full of youthful idealism.
