Another Discovery. Still Not Enough

Primary school told me there were seven continents. Simple. Manageable. But here I am, years and thousands of hours later, staring at a map that just got messier. We found a new continent under the Atlantic, and I should feel awe, or pride, or something. Instead, I just feel tired. Every new finding means more questions, more late nights, more ways to realize how little I know. I used to think every discovery would make me feel closer to understanding. Now it just reminds me how far I still am. We reconstructed ancient tectonic shifts, mapped a chunk of crust no one had named before. The paper is out. The emails are quiet. I keep waiting for the moment it feels like enough. It never comes. #ScienceFatigue #ImposterInTheRoom #ResearchExhaustion #Science
