Just so you know...
Some things have been happening in my life recently that I truly have no control over. I have to let God do His will through me. As you have seen in a previous post, I went to Denver for another class for work. Had a great time there meeting new people and spending time with a special someone. Well, he decided to end the week on a down note. Went so far as to "unfriend" me on FB. Now, I really can't complain about that as it was his choice. Actually, I will say it is his LOSS!
When you love someone for as long as I have and that person knows this, it's very hurtful to be treated the way I was the last time we spoke. My heart is completely broken not because of what was said to me or the fact that we can never be a couple. But because he decided that our friendship is worth absolutely nothing. A friendship that spanned 20 years. A friendship that in the beginning was based on a mutual interest in the Bible and God.
I am not a spiteful person. I don't like animosity. I realise more than ever he did what he did out of spite and nothing more.
With that, I am giving the definition as found on Merriam-Webster online of the word "spite":

Your considerations for moving? Are you running away? Or running towards something? I have had a few rough days at work myself and especially since it is part time and I mainly rely on additional hours it is definitely time to find something different. I love my job, and my colleagues, but with the cuts, understaffing (that will get worse), constant changes that I feel mean that standard of work I can achieve is a lot lower than I am capable of. And who knows there is always a potential for redundancy. Yet I come home, I look at my cv and I am afraid of being rejected yet again. But one has to hope there is a plan and everything will work out eventually,
Anyhow, have you ever read 'The Alchemist' by Paulo Coelho, it is very uplifting and talks about following ones dreams, the struggles and if one believes in something he or she will get it. I find his style of writing tends to lift up the mood. At the moment I am reading 'One hundred year old man who climbed out the window and disappeared'. It is a little unrealistic, but will make one laugh at things one should probably not laugh at. Allan (the main character) throughout his life is able to walk out on his life in just what he has on in search of something new.
Good luck! I'm sure you will pull through. For dark patches always are followed by light.
