Thank You God For Not Getting That Job
First of all whenever I have to give my personal information, I always feel violated
This is one time I cannot save my little privacy
Since I have to be honest
Since I have to show openness
Since I can't be rude
I have to show that I love being around people
Team work, group power, crowd cheerleader et all
Yet most of the time I just want to be alone, writing
Don't get me wrong because I love other people's company
I love the threads, the ties and the ligaments of human...ity
I also love the inspirations others give me
After the interview I felt so horrible
I called one of my friends and cried my brains out
But she was busy so she couldn't talk much
I begged her to call me back because I was so stressed
Then I went to another friend's house
And there I cried about all my fears and worries
She listened and comforted me
She herself can't even a job, yet she gave me a shoulder to lean on
Thank You God that I didn't get that job
Because:
I appreciate my friends even more
My trust has grown stronger
I met a new friend as I was leaving this other friend's house
I now have new play pal, more play dates
I conquered the strong urge to drink because at that time all I wanted was alcohol to put me to sleep, until tomorrow
I also resisted the urge to eat junk
I don't want to say that I don't have weight issues
But I have some work to do, I the stress eater
And most of all, I thank You as was able to go outside, breathed the fresh air, enjoyed the cool weather and played a little bit
And I wrote these words
My healing therapy
I know if it's not today, my dream is still valid
There's always tomorrow
