Dropped out of uni and thought I’d be happy but I just feel like a failure….i wanna go back to studying but I know my mental state is not ready for that rn. I just want to be successful and stop feeling numb all the time…
Seeing my friends thrive and be close to graduating makes me wanna just cry, I’m proud of them but I’m also so jealous that I can’t have what they do. Their parents are proud of them and everything is going so well for everyone around me, meanwhile my parents just being mad at me for dropping out & thinking I’m not mentally ill just saying I’m making it all up cuz I don’t wanna work hard….😭😓

I know I'm not much to look at.
I know I don't have much to give.
I know I'm a wreck mentally, emotionally and physically.
I know I'm a lot to put up with/deal with.
But I do try.
I'm sorry that I am not enough.
I'm sorry that I'm not worth looking at.
I'm sorry that I'm a mess.
I'm sorry that I don't give you what others could.
I'm sorry that there's better options theough the screen out there.
I'm just trying to be what I can.
To be enough...

My partner just got the "you need to go out and pound the pavement to find a job" from their mom on my behalf.
It Doesn'T -WORK- like that anymore!!!
Apparently there are A Lot of jobs out there that don't have lifting or hand use restrictions! 🙄
Gods keep me from throwing myself into the canal fer FUCK'S SAKE
She will simultaneously ask why I've already spent most of my inheritance while telling my partner that they shouldn't be supporting me all the time or something, like those two things aren't related.
Why am I almost out of my little bit of money? Because I've been PAYING FOR THINGS. Car payment, rent, gas, internet, groceries. Yes some frivolous things here and there but mostly BILLS.
Fucking hell
(Litany against negative self talk, repeated through gritted teeth)

The way Cal’s kyber crystal breaks in half and he takes the physical scraps of his former master’s broken lightsaber and his new master’s abandoned lightsaber — both of which are (spiritually and symbolically) connected to so much pain and horror that’s kept both him and Cere trapped in the past — to forge a brand new lightsaber that’s unlike any other, able to be wielded in halves or as one staff, and is all his own.
A scrapper using the skills he was forced to learn after his whole world was upended, taking this scrap, the broken pieces of his life in front of him, and creating something new and stronger. The past can’t be changed. And once something’s broken, it’s never going to be what it was before. But you can sit with the broken pieces, forever mourning what you’ll never have back. Or you can use those broken pieces to build something new.
Creation from destruction. The past meeting the present to forge the future. Hope bursting from the ashes of despair. Cal’s lightsaber is a literal flame burning away the ice this jedi temple has been suspended in since Order 66. You need that light to cut through the ice and leave. You need it to survive. You need it to move forward.
There’s also something about BD-1 being the only reason Cal doesn’t give up here. The only reason he chooses to try to forge a new blade even with a broken kyber crystal instead of succumbing to hypothermia. BD-1 is this light from the past. It’s given this knowledge, this spark of hope, this tiny flame, by Cordova and told to keep it alive. Keep this light burning after the jedi have fallen. Find someone to help you carry it forward. BD-1 is the flame that lights the torch — Cal. And it’s shown so beautifully in this scene.
