sometimes it seems that my work catches up to me. i sometimes feel an unbearable sadness when i'm at work - the depressing humanity is almost too much to bear. what people do to each other and to themselves gets to you when you let it. we develop a tough skin here but some days you can't help but feel. and when you feel what you're doing, it's all so sad. i deal with the public on what could possibly be the worst days of their entire life. they put their lives in my hands and trust that i will help make it all okay. but it doesn't always turn out okay. the good guys don't always win. stolen property doesn't get found, people don't un-die, people don't not harm each other, white knights don't save us all and the prince and princess don't live happily ever after.
sometimes....sometimes, the boogeyman wins
