It's hard; to balance your real life commitments and writing. There's so much happening, the pressure is real and when you're responsible for the lives of two hundred families, I often wonder should I still be investing time into what I love to do? It's a bummer when either of them - writing or work commitments stress you out and cause you to take it out on the other.
But surely there should be some balance - would retiring from RP actually give me happiness? I'm not sure.
i vibe hard with this. i've come to accept that i'm at the point in my life where i just don't have time for rp. there are ideas i have pop into my head every so often, but i figure if anything i'd just end up writing it out and maybe putting together a book or two out of it. but rp? nope, just can't do it. hahaha. but between work, getting engaged, planning a big move to another state, planning a wedding for next year, working more throughout all of that, and then all the other stuff that comes after those things? buying a house? starting a family? looooooooooooooooooooooool i just can't do it. i wish everyone that continues to do so all the best, of course. overall, i think my experience with this community has been great. met a lot of great folks but i've basically burned all those bridges. but all that's okay, for me, because i like who i've become and who i'm in the process of becoming. life is good. /end rant lol
