Furthermore, because I so enjoy talking to myself….
Should I feel bad or ashamed for wanting to see something from the fruits of my labor… for once in my life?
How many of us share the sentiment from White Squall?
I don't want to end up nobody.
I don't want to end up alone outside of platitudes and having God as my only friend.
It's so noble to toil for the sake of the others.

It's never a truly self-less act. You want a better future yourself because you want to to be a part of the future.
Is it too much to ask for at least the amount of care you gave to everyone else?
There's giving of yourself and fucking yourself over.
And you're not so insignificant that you should put everyone/thing before yourself in that you become a social/emotional masochist.
And I shouldn't feel bad to asking this or wanting better for myself, especially if I've busted ass earning it.

We have a number of people that should make it statistically impossible to effect any kind of change… yeeeeet here we are!
