There’s always a faint glimmer of hope — no matter how small — but I agree that you have to preserve your time and energy to make them serve you best you can.

I get your frustration — I’ve been doing this for well over a year, and am still struggling. But, like I said, I’m gonna make this work for me — even if I don’t know quite what that looks like yet! I think we all have to decide what is worth it for us, and go from there.
