Is This IT?

“There has to be more to life than this,â€? I thought to myself. Life can not just be work, eat and sleep. I rolled over to look at the alarm clock, “6:30, late again.â€? “I don’t think that I can take one more day of this crap!â€? I yelled as I unwillingly pulled myself out of bed and started to get ready for work. Dragging myself to the bathroom, I saw the stack of bills on the desk and instantly remembered why I have I work. The bills have to get paid somehow. I have always done what is expected of me; graduated from college, got a good job, brought a house. Now that I’m at the point I’ve been struggling to get to my whole life….is this really it? Being a productive member of society is starting to become a drain.
