the worst thing

the worst thing.
is getting excited because you think you've achieved something no matter how small and then finding out you didn't.
and it made you feel so good and then you feel like a fool for being so excited.
a gesture made out of kindness is always a good and kind thing but can also hurt.
when seeking and needing advice, it hurts to feel palmed off onto someone else.
when first steps feel like giant leaps of faith
and they are not repaid.
but the worst thing
is receiving a compliment that you cannot trust to be true.
when you suspect that someone well meaning is behind someone else's false words.
thats the worst thing.

Hey

Thanks for your comment. I just went to the job centre and got fobbed of and told to ring job seekers direct. I said "i can do that at home- im here to talk to some one in person" after going around in circles i gave up and left. They are rediculously unhelpful.

My predicument is that i live in a village, about half an hour outside of my nearest city (swansea) and we only have one car which dylan uses to visit clients (we run a design company) so i cant really get a job thats not local because most of the time i dont have access to a car.

My ideal part time job is something like cleaning. Not alot of fun, but you go, you clean, no customers to deal with etc, 3 hours or so a day, and youre done. If that makes sense.

That way ive still got time to do charliemotel, and the paper work for the design business, plus house work etc etc. Theres just nothing around here at the moment. It sucks. Ugh sorry. Im venting. Feeling a bit crap right now.

I should go draw or something. Oh- and on that note, first off i love the poem you wrote here- kinda sums up how i feel right now, and i LOVE your pen and ink stuff. You need to sell them as prints. they're awesome.
