My Daily Reality
Every day I sit in front of my computer and search job site after job site. Each day I have hope that I will get that call or email from a company that wants to hire me. The act of job hunting take more effort and gives me more stress than actually going to work. It is exhausting.
I have so much I want to accomplish. However, being unemployed, makes me feel like I’m in a box - trapped living a life I never thought I’d be living. I have so much to offer the world but life circumstances have it all on hold. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t change the path I have taken in life. Moving to DC has allowed me to make many wonderful friends. These friends are like an extension of my family. And, right now, I miss them so much.
So, I’ll keep getting up every day and hoping - hoping that today will be the day. I’ll hope that today will be the day I get a chance to get my life back. Hoping that today I’ll get able to once again feel like I’m a real part of the world again. Hoping that I will have my own place instead of a storage bin and temporary housing.
Maybe today….
