[Devra Kul - Front Ear - CO's Quarters]"It doesn't really matter how good someone is at their job..." and indeed, from what Devra had heard and seen, Judy had been a marvelous Commanding Officer. "There comes a point when what a person is passionate about is more important than what they are good at. If you are no longer passionate about working for Starfleet, then I dare say it's time to move on to something you do still have passion for." So many people let duty and obligation interfere with their own happiness. It was a path she was concerned her daughter would end up going down, but there was still plenty of time to have that conversation with the driven young woman.

[Capt. Judith Eastman(-Williams), PhD - CO's Quarters]"What I'm getting at is that it's a bit... funny that I'm quitting the Starfleet rat race so soon after I 'won' it," Judy clarified. "Not that that makes the decision any less right."She felt very validated by this conversation, and eager to get on with the business of leaving Starfleet. "Now, I suppose I should get back to this job. Someone has to do it until I leave."

[Devra Kul - Front Ear - CO's Quarters]"At least you have a light at the end of the wormhole, now." Knowing that she, too, should probably get back to work, Devra plucked up one more of the small cakes on the table as she stood. "And I'm always happy to be a voice of reason whenever you need one." It meant a lot to the Betazoid that Judy would come to her for advice on such a major life decision. She was glad that the conversation seemed to help the other woman quite a bit.

[Capt. Judith Eastman(-Williams), PhD - CO's Quarters]Judy chuckled. "With any luck, I'll have a little less need for a voice of reason," she joked. But there was more to all this than just jokes, after all. "Thank you," she added, and meant it.
