As I set about going through my self reflection, and recognizing my burnout of games, I realized something: what I was going through was perfectly okay.
Absolutely, and kudos for the self-reflection. You've taken a particular experience -- growing out of something -- and gave it a universal spin. What I consider a passion does not have to be my entire identity.
Exactly. Letting go of things is hard, especially when the new identity is still under construction. Constructing a new identity is hard. Sometimes it's being in a relationship that is our identity, sometimes it's a job we've worked hard at. Letting go is hard, but holding on is harder..
