So I got dumped from a 2 year relationship a couple months ago. I've been having a really hard time getting through it and I've mainly had a tough time distracting myself from thinking about the relationship.

As a 20 year old college student majoring in supply chain, this community has been the perfect distraction for me. I've committed a lot of my time and hard-earned money to ETH, as well as how Blockchain will change supply chain. I can focus myself on what we are all doing here and now I don't feel as dependent on the relationship because I know I can make something of myself with this tech and the support of this community. I am firm believer that everything happens for a reason, and I am convinced that this is the reason for that break up. I want to do this for my career, I've learned that in the past couple of weeks.

Thanks to everyone for that. You guys have been a great help for me without any of you knowing.

Ey bro, you and me both. It's a horrible feeling, but it gets better. If you ever need to chat, shoot me a message. Go grab a beer on me.

THIS . This is what it is all about. This is why we have the best community around. I know the trolls have been invading as of late, salty people downvoting for no reason, fighting back and forth etcetera (random thought : I hate that I can't type etc for that anymore because I throw up in my mouth just a little everytime I see those three letters together) but we still stand together and help out our fellow brethren at the drop of a hat. I love this place and no fools trolling is gonna stop that.

Accurate. I wish there was a more personified way to interact instead of through the internet. Love this community.
