At the end of May the company in which I had been working for the last six years closed. I lost the economic safety I used to have, yes. But the reality is that... I hated that job. I hated it with all my heart. It made me miserable. A few weeks later, still without job, I realized I also have to move from the house I'm living, and start to pay a rent.

Anyway, short story: in the short time of a few days, a week max, all the anxiety I was having disappeared when I realize that I didn't want to get a "safe" and miserable job like the one I used to have. I'm realizing that I'm totally capable, is totally possible, to sustain myself with independent jobs that make me happy (like walking dogs, as babysitter, and yes even I'm getting some editing jobs!). This jobs are only temporary, I don't want to walk dogs my whole life, but they give me the freedom I need to slowly start the path I want to follow in life.

I found this song when I was still in those days of anxiety and not knowing what I wanted. I listened to it without knowing what the lyrics was... and man I think I had never cried so much because of a song. It just... spoke to me you know.
