personal and professional life

most people live dual lives

one of their lives is their so called professional life that may be school or work

and the other life is your personal life which is reserved strictly for your family and very close friends

now it is absolutely important that these two hell holes never mix

and ill tell you why

there are elements of your professional and personal life that must never intertwine

for instance, if you fancy dressing up in your sister's clothes and parading around the house every second weekend

you damn sure better not tell your co-worker about that

and vice versa

now when everything is dandy and your happy about your life

it may not seem like such a bad idea to mix your professional and personal life

i mean, it amplifies the fun right?

well, when times turn for the worse, it amplifies the shit,

having a single life means that you'll have no one to turn to for help as elements of your personal and private life have become one, you cant tell one without the risk of the other knowing

dual lives are important as they can act as support networks when one of them fail

if your professional life is down the toilet, at least you can come home and have your personal life to re-energize you

similarly, if you have a fight with your family, you can busy yourself with your professional life

moreover, its essential to maintain the privacy of each lives,

as people, if exposed to the realities of your alternate life, will judge some of your less mainstream activities

what one does in his/her professional life or personal life shouldnt affect people's interpretation

i.e. if you're a hardworker, it shouldnt matter whether you were born into a gay, abusive household

however, the real word aint so sentimental, judgement and possibly discrimination will occur

so in order to stay sane, ensure that such lives remain separate
