DOWN TIME

Life has handed me some unexpected turns. Like, I was terminated from my job. Although I am still adjusting to this, and the fact that I was terminated for things that were petty, not my fault, or were outright lies! However, I guess I can not dwell on these things--- I realize that things happen for a reason. I am able to look at this situation as a one that will teach me a lot about myself and who I want to be!! I know that the organization I worked for was neither what I was looking for professionally, nor who I wanted to be supervised by. So, like all the other bumps in my life, I have to see this as a temporary detour--- perhaps a "short cut." I just have to continue to have faith and believe not only in myself, my abilities and the bigger picture. Of course monetarily, this change has not been the ideal situation, but it'll work out. I have put in tons of applications all over and actually have an interview on Monday evening at a Chemical Dependency facility.... doing what I had done before. Although the pay is less and what not.... I'm going for the interview because I NEED to get out there in the working world soon!! This Down Time is KILLING ME! Although I've been trying to make the best of my down time--I've been writing letters like I used to like to do, I'm reading, and trying to get caught up on my homework. Let's see where life brings me--- For now, it's down time and collecting unemployment, but give me a little bit of time and who knows what will happen!!
