searching for other work

I am so grateful for this new opportunity at my friend's office.


It's made me feel full of potential, at least the future seems like it has some


potential, more than it did before starting it.


I have been talking to my therapist about work the past couple of meetings.


The sum of our meetings have made me feel like I really ought to be looking for work


and in fact I am starting to really want to.


At times when I don't know what that work will be, very often my mind goes


to my failings in relationships and in life and I seem to get stuck there.


I think everyone must have moments where they think about their failings


and in that I shouldn't stop trying to look for work, even so for the issues that arise in my mind.


I don't know what to do for work, but for right now I am really thrilled at helping this friend.


It's teaching me a lot and uncovering some confidence. :)

I'm really glad that you're enjoying the office work Marky..... What about working with an agency??…. Then you can let them know when you're available to work and if you need a few days off you just say you aren't available those days..... Big hug....xo

Even a bad job offers enough stability to get choosy about potential jobs and offers. Hence the easily verified fact that people who already have jobs get better jobs. I hope you'll use that fact to your advantage. Work is entirely too big a piece of a life to settle for less than a dream come true.

Steadying support while you explore the possibilities, Mark. Even if you decide to stay where you are, you'll be happier for knowing what's out there.

I feel like I need so much dependability, structure and routine in my life it’s super crazy. I am thinking about the monastery I went to and can imagine living in the daily rhythm there as being much like providing the spiritual atomic clock that through osmosis the world lives by. It’s weird. I steer clear of Islam which is a whole way of life.. but it’s just weird that I have a hard time dealing with myself in the world. We all need to fight for our place and sustenance. Why am I the Ferdinand of Bulls?? Useless .
