I dumped my day-job like a stage 5 clinger. The results? Amazing

This is pretty offensive to be honest. Attributing the OP's success and optimism on being young and 'pretty'. What about skill, or determination? I think what you are describing is the difference between being positive and optimistic rather than.. as you said jaded.

OP here. Optimism tastes like anxiety in my mouth, and my laughter and sarcasm is just a front for how damn hard I'm kicking my own ass.

I think they were, like you said, just feeling jaded. I feel it too though...looking at where I am, at nearly 30, and seeing where people who are younger than I am are. But, man, we all have our own stuff we go through.

Better late than never, always keep swimming and kicking so we can thrive. That's the anxiety talking. I'm positive because I have to be. If I wasn't positive, I wouldn't be kicking so hard xD
