I've kept trying and trying and trying
But I've never found it, my purpose.
At the end, I just end up sighing
And almost end up wondering if I'm worthless.
Why haven't I found it?
How long will it take?
I can't just sit and throw a fit.
Then again, I wonder, if I'm just a mistake.
I've got nobody to help me.
Nobody to say, "Hey, it's okay."
If only I did, I would be jumping with glee.
I wonder if my life was just meant to be this way.
Then I remember, that everybody has ups and downs
I've been in the "down" for quite a while now.
But I've just got to be patient for now and tune out the doubts
I'm sure I'll make it and find my purpose...somehow.

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.
