How my life has quickly changed in month. Around this time a month ago I was unemployed and had WAY too much time on hands. I was bored a lotta of the time, but on the plus side I reflected on my life which is needed every now and then. I realized I unintentionally put up a wall around people. While this blog allows my thoughts almost free reign. Around people though I feel that I have to be careful of my actions, expressions, and words. So as I said I put up walls and I'm working on lowering them at least. While I might not make or keep friends easily I treasure them whole heartily. I've come to realize the importance of them in my life.
Anywho to get back on track. Life has changed, in fact it's done a 180. I now feel like I keep running out of time. I'll be busy with something and before I realize it at least a half hour, if not a whole hour has gone by. I know have to make personal time fit into my weekly schedule, while before all I had was personal time. I also realize a person needs to stop sometimes from all the, the to-do list and just let the mind and body rest for a bit.
Another good thing to come from being unemployed for a while is that I now treasure my work and paycheck. I also now have a better understanding of why people struggle financially. Before I used to think people just don't handle their money well, now I see that if your being paid slightly above minimum wage their is no way one person can live off that much less support a whole family without some debt being involved. I realize how incredibly lucky I am. Mind you it wasn't only luck that got me where I am. There was a determination and support system as well to attain what I have accomplished.
Closer to attaining my happiness. Just need to work on the physical side of me, but for now it's on the back burner. :0)
