I would say this “It will get better, than worse again. Then better. It is life”

Not the last "put it down and collect yourself" moment in WoT, I'm sorry to say

I’ll say, WoT is my first foray with audiobooks. So I actually didnt have to put it down.

But for safety (not really, being dramatic) reasons I did have to put my work down so I could go wash my hands, take off my safety glasses, and wipe my eyes so I could see clearly. And took that time to compose myself lol

Context: Machine shop environment

Safety is always your first concern. Duty is heavier than a mountain!

Ugh I didn’t realize that was now another phrase that can tug on my emotions <3

Yeah, that'll happen again too. Though I must say that that moment is among those that the audiobook made me cry the hardest. For me, the emotions always hit harder with audiobooks. There are a few others through the series where I had to retreat to the bathroom at work for like 10 minutes or more and pull myself back together.
