Usolicited advice to no one in particular:
Choices. It's all about choices - making them and living with them. If you are not where you want to be, realize that you made choices to get you where you are. No one dropped your life into your lap. You collected it, configured it, as you went along. Maybe it was passive, you allowed it to happen instead of actively creating it, BUT if so, you chose to be passive. If you don't like it... change it... make new choices. And remember, you can always choose to be content with what you have, where you are, and who you are. That doesn't mean you have to stop changing or making choices. It just means you need to find a comfortable base to work from. If you're not there, get there, make it. Find out what you need and reconfigure your life to get it. If you are miserable, you are choosing to be miserable, because you are choosing not to change what is making you miserable OR you are choosing to feel miserable about your circumstances, whether they justify it or not. Accept it or change it. Either way, the process always begins with you, here and now. Always.
It may be worn out, but it's still wisdom: There are three ways to deal with life and even find your peace in it...
Accept the things you cannot change.
Change the things you can.
Know the difference.
