Secret (Signed & Encrypted)

Maybe it's just the hormones, the terrible heat or the ill-advised coffee, but these nights that are kidnapped by an endless cycle of the same questions and answers have become too frequent of late.

Do you think that what you're doing is fundamentally right?
Not really.

Is there a possibility of changing things so they will become right?
Almost definitely no, at least not in my lifetime.

Do you at least try, even though you may know that it is in vain?
I'd like to think so, yes.

Do you feel good about what you've done today?
No.

Have you ever felt a sense of achievement from your work?
Relief, yes; material gratification, recently yes; personal vindication, on occasion; achievement, NO.

Describe your role defined by your work in the context of society-at-large.
Hypocrite?


(Sigh.)
