schestowitzlinks and uzbl are the most fossy i use, but still not well suited to being the only browser used. (my uzbl so janky, i have not really used it for so long). and others, i dont even want to mention, not wanting to give them any advertising.Jun 26 00:36

schestowitzAfter eight years of working for the web hosting company, it was time to move on to better things. I found a new job working for Linux Academy, a company that creates online training material for cloud certifications, which currently holds the spot as the #1 online cloud training provider on the web! Within a year and a half, I have gotten two promotions, and now manage a team of people who champion our students. It was scary to Jun 26 20:27
schestowitzmove on to something new, not knowing what would happen and facing the unknown. But after weighing the pros and cons, I took that chance, because it was worth it to me to move forward. Now, I get the opportunity to learn constantly and I get paid for it.Jun 26 20:27
schestowitzUnfortunately, things took another turn for the worse. My life was soon to be turned upside down in a way that I could never have imagined. On November 14th, 2019, my boyfriend of nine years committed suicide. It will forever be etched in my mind and heart and body and soul as one of the worst days of my life. He struggled with depression and even questioned my love for him. Our relationship wasn't perfect, but I still loved him andJun 26 20:27
schestowitzI still wanted him in my life. He was my friend—someone who believed in me from the beginning. I am still in shock.Jun 26 20:27
schestowitzEverything was hard—sleeping, eating, drinking, focusing. My mind can't erase the memories of trying to save him and being unable to and seeing someone I love, hearing someone I love, dying in front of me. All I wanted was for him to be happy and strong and healthy, and I know he wanted the same for me. No matter how hard I tried, though, the depression still won. I felt like I had failed him. It was incredibly painful and still Jun 26 20:28
schestowitzis. But now, after going through intensive therapy and hours upon hours of reflection, I began to see that the guilt, depression, and upset that I am going through is normal. I realized that it isn't my fault, and in the end, he would want me to go on—to be better than what I am, not to take life for granted, and to go forward and help people. So that's what I did.Jun 26 20:28
schestowitzI've often wondered why these things happened to me, or what can be learned from these experiences, and I think that it is to share my story with other people. To connect with people and understand what it means to really help someone, you have to give not just when it's convenient. And to honor him, and to be true to myself, I have been giving my all to make sure that others are able to be the best version of themselves, especiallyJun 26 20:28
