it’s hard to walk away

How my love for a person and my love for this crazy ugly beautiful industry of video games are similar.

What other options do I have?

You know I don’t see you when she walks in the room

A man will beg, a man will crawl
On the sheer face of love like a fly on a wall

And a woman will, too.

If you can only be fulfilled in either your romantic life or your professional life, which is better? There’s no right answer to that question for me. “There is love and there is work, yet we have but one heart.” But if there’s one thing I learned from GDC this week, it’s that I want to hold on tooth and nail to my place (or create a place for myself, if it doesn’t exist already) in games, where I can stay alive and stay afloat, if only barely, doing the kind of work I want to do.

There’s a lot of things if I could I’d rearrange.
