A system in place

“You’ll be fine…” Right i’ll be fine with my labels to brag. With my diploma, undergraduate degree, masters, phd Under all that, me. I can barely see me- I’ll be fine but, happiness? Is that in the picture? Sorry I digress... Though. The status quo, they tell us A+ vital, F is the devil, Dr label in front of your name makes you capable. I breathe complex numbers and long words my blood is A+ and yes, it is something I lust. For I, in this reality and life need that degree, PHD- it is vital to me. Contradicting my dreams?
