Sometimes it happens. You lose your source of power, your guiding thread, the will to create and move on. You dissect your life partitioning it into work, family, friends, hobbies. If any of these parts deviates from the norm you`ve imagined, the whole life seems incomplete, wrong, imperfect. As a  child, you were dreaming about your adulthood: at 20 I will find a beloved  job with handsome salary. I will sit in a modern office with large windows and  large-leaved plants working on an article about contemporary art. Exactly the same you had  seen in your favourite film. At 25 your husband will drive you and your new-born child to the new two-storied house that soon will become your family home. You`ll be like a character of book you`d read recently. At 30 you imagined yourself sitting in the garden with a cup of tea surrounded by loving husband and children. Your mother had told you about such an ideal family before. 
But Reality is not a story from a book, not a plot from a film, not a happy ending fairy-tale. It is an every day hard work, a game with no choice to turn back and start again. Do not live according to plan, do not feel like a failure. Remember that you are not a somebody`s pattern, you are a unique individual with your own talents, personality and achievements. Try to  congratulate yourself for what you`ve done and do not  kick yourself for what you`ve not done yet.
