So, I admit it…I had a teeny, tiny meltdown last night. A perfect storm of feeling a little under the weather for a couple of days, rl stress, sl stress, a splash of disappointment in a couple of situations combined with tiredness and frustration with myself I took a nosedive into feeling sorry for myself for a time.
It really doesn’t happen very often, and it’s even rarer that when it does that anybody even knows about it. I tend to keep things to my chest. I have always tried to, outwardly, at least seem perfectly in control of everything…especially my words, actions and emotions.
A friend of mine told me years ago that it wouldn’t hurt for people to see the human side of Kess occasionally. I’ve also been told that I’m a ‘machine’ (and yes, that was by someone who actually liked me lol). I think those that know me best know I’m probably somewhere between those too. I try to help people as much and as often as I can and I never expect anything in return. I work hard, incredibly hard, in both rl and sl and I enjoy both tremendously…I get a lot from it in terms of a sense of achievement and success. However, I’m inclined to agree with that friend from years ago to a point…I need to feel more human again in Second Life and less like a machine.
Creating, and spending time in scenes like this make me feel human – yes it’s work putting it together and sad that they get torn down again so quickly but while it’s here I’m going to enjoy it. I also have to say a huge thank you to Apple Fall who helped with decorating the scene.
