Part of me wants to be the nice person. Not necessarily the person that everyone loves, but nice and kind. Always thoughtful and considerate.

I've gone through life largely in a good space. I have had some amazing work experiences that have led to a lot of fulfillment from that front. Personally, I am blessed in so many ways, but you know, there are some things that you really can't have everything.
