such a heartwarming book and 21 years later this is still relevant. we should not bury ourselves in work. we should be living the life we wanted and enjoy the beauty of it. not getting stressed by every tick of the clock and every second that passes by. eat healthy and cook healthy. hear the chirping of the birds

very death by a thousand cuts codeddd

Well, my hot blood's been burnin' for so many summers now
It's time to cool it down, wherever that leads <3

I look along the endless line, squinting in the sunshine. I’m twenty-nine years old. I can go anywhere. Do anything. Be anyone I like.

This isn’t what I want from my life. This isn’t what I want to do. This isn’t who I want to be.


 I don’t want to be someone who doesn’t look out the window.”

"
I look at them, the cream of the legal world, dressed in their thousand-pound handmade suits, holding state-of-the-art computers. Missing out. Not even caring that they’re missing out. Living in their own world.

" I can’t obsess about every little chunk of time. I can’t miss out on any more."

is having a normal, simple life a fantasyland? is wanting a normal life a fantasyland? shoudn't it be the norm?



“Have you put your career over love?” chimes in a bright-faced girl.

why should we choose between career and love 333

a PR disaster ahahasksksk this is the best!! can't wait for this to be adapted someday into a movieee

“You’ve had your break, Samantha,” he says. “Now it’s back to work.

“You need to start pulling in business, Samantha Sweeting, equity partner. Can’t rest on your laurels.”

aww so samantha can't really take a break

omg the media is really invested on samantha's return to the law firm sksksk

a press conference just for her comeback as a lawyer? what in the kpop idol is this
shes living the life of a kpop idol with cameras and netizens focused on her
A row of TV cameras is trained on me, photographers and journalists are in a crowd behind

huh so she really chose to go back to the law firm? but then again it's not a logical decision to be a housekeeper and live in the countryside forever but then again it's like she's going back to the place that gave her trauma and triggers

huh so she really chose to go back to the law firm? but then again it's not a logical decision to be a housekeeper and live in the countryside forever but then again it's like she's going back to the place that gave her trauma and triggers

so what is a fulfilling life? i wonder when do we know if the work we do is fulfilling


it's logical if samantha wants to go back to her old job as a lawyer but it makes so much sense if she just continues living a simple and quiet life away from the hustle and bustle

i wonder what samantha will do now. is being a housekeeper just a sabbatical for her? or will she finally get that work-life balance? will she go back to carter spink and clean their name?

it's rational and logical decision vs a simple answer

it's brain vs heart
it's rational vs emotional decision for samantha

at the end of the day it boils down to what you really want and enjoy in life


“Serving food to a bunch of airheads. Letting them patronize you.”

so it's ego after all. guy's ego and pride couldn't stomach serving others. he wants to be known as the smartest in the room huh and being in control
