Rank, I mean, there's there's no easy way to say this. I did accept, a role. Last month, I was disrespected by my boss. He asked, what does my girlfriend bring to the table to deserve a $6,500 ring? And as much as this made my blood boil, I didn't quit that day. Because one of the things my girlfriend values most is stability. And my job offered them a steady paycheck, great benefits, and a clear future. All things I wanted to give her because she deserves it. But life doesn't always go the way you plan, and you don't realize how little you control until things just fall apart. Last week, I put in my two weeks to quit my job. And when I told her about the decision to quit, she didn't panic, she didn't question it, and she didn't act like I was doing something dumb. She said, I trust you. You have my support, and your happiness is worth more than any job. She knew that I felt miserable and needed a change of pace. That's when I realized stability isn't a job. It's a person who stays when things get uncertain. I'll be starting a new job in two weeks, and until then, I'll be taking a vacation and continue Good Dashing for my girlfriend's dream ring. And while I don't exactly know what the next chapter will look like, I know that I'll keep loving her, and that one day I'll be with her and be loving her full time. Because even though life is unpredictable, my love for her isn't. Sixty three days in, $3,418.26 out of 6,500. Follow to see how long it takes.
