Sound familiar?
- 01You've chased the dream you thought you wanted, but the target keeps moving.
- 02When you tell people what you do, you feel empty inside.

- 04You'd swap some of your salary for some of your soul back, if anyone offered the trade.
- 05The statement "Do what you love" pisses you off and you can't entirely explain why.
