5 years ago I was writing my resignation letter. My hands shook and tears streamed down my face. It was the scariest thing I had ever done. I knew that many people would disapprove. It seemed crazy to leave a good paying job that I worked so hard to earn and be promoted at, and yet it seemed even crazier to not follow my dream. My health had declined in every way imaginable. Physically I was in constant pain, anxiety, back pain, frequent headaches. Emotionally I was a complete basket case, crying on the drive into the office everyday had become commonplace. Spiritually i ached for a sense of connection and made very unhealthy relationship decisions to try to fill that void. One day it all seemed to come crashing down. I collapsed in the hallway of my Canton apartment. In the fetal position I hyperventilated in a fit of tears. Nowadays Im writing something else. Im writing a proposal to help spread positive psychology. Im still scared and my hands are still shaking but this time with excitement.
