Hello. Those who have been following my postings know that I have been feeling really sad and depressed, especially after I lost my job. Though my job was in fact one of the sources of my depression, at least I had income and something to do, even though some of my isolation is related to what the job was doing to me.

Anyway, I have been feeling devastated for having so many loses in the past year, and recently after coming from a retreat I felt very depressed and overwhelmed by coming back to the same sadness.

So yesterday, out of nowhere, I was just flipping TV channels and my cell phone rang. It was a company I applied for a job last year in August. I had a great interview and felt very welcome by the people who interviewed me. After that I didn't get the job but got a courtesy call stating that they like my work and will keep me in mind for the future. Well, "the future" was yesterday when they called me to ask me if I would be interested in working for them.

MIRACLE!!!! Of course I said yes, trying not to sound too disparate. I told them that I can start in a few weeks (I can start immediately, but didn't want to scare them by being too available).

So not only I have a new job, it's a job I didn't even apply to recently. And I will be making thousands of dollars more a year than in the job I just lost.

I have a horrendous career path; to me this is a big deal. I feel less depressed, more hopeful and enjoying having something to look forward to.

I want to share this with you since many of you have been so kind and supportive. I was feeling really very depressed and sad, and with this good news I feel better, but most important, I feel useful, appreciated and valued unlike in my previous job where I was treated like a pest no matter how hard I tried to be liked.

Thank you for your support.
