Are you happy?
A simple yet loaded question. Overall I think I am. I spend a lot of time working and commuting but I'm in the growing years of my career and working hard to prove myself. The late night work is usually things I enjoy doing but don't have time for during the day and I'd otherwise be sitting in front the TV so I might as well make money.
I make time for family as well. For example leaving early for date night every now and then, taking days off for family events, going on family vacations. It's important to have balance.
If I were to pick an area of my life that I'm unhappy with, it would be friendships and hobbies but I think most of that is due to undiagnosed mental issues. I don't make connections easily so friends have always been hard. I have one good friend that I've known for almost my whole life, every one else is an acquaintance. The only hobby I have is the same thing I do for work. I don't really enjoy or get excited about anything else.
