Is this it?

Is this it? A question I ask myself everyday. Is this the culmination of all the dreams and aspirations I had for this chapter of my life. Did I put in all this time and effort just to be admitted into this glorified rat race.

Everyday I wake up and put in all the effort I can muster just to retain my spot in that race with the only outcome being barely enough money to cover the essentials. Completely wrapped up in achievements that mean nothing seen in their proper scope. Slowly climbing the hierarchy becoming a part of the system I loath. One day if I'm lucky I may even head this sweatshop managing younger slightly less depressed versions of myself... That's the best case scenario.

Designed to entrap you within the system is built to foil any attempts to escape it. Once you are in you grow dependent on it, gradually losing your grip on the bigger picture and at one point start believing that this bubble is the entire universe and even start resisting anybody who tries convincing you of anything else.
