I've been out of college for five years. That means I've been out of high school for nine. Next year I could possibly attend a ten year high school reunion, and that is incredibly....overwhelming.
I pay my bills. I have money to buy things I want. I spend most of my time doing things I enjoy, but I'm a nanny. A nanny is not a career. It's only remarkable when the mom is dead and you take her place when the dad falls in love with you. But when it's not The Sound of Music, it's just a job. A job that makes me feel like I should still be in school.
So why if I enjoy the life I have, if I have enough money and spare time to keep me happy, why does it feel like I'm still a failure. What will success feel like?
