Job Hunting

I have been job hunting since March of this year, but to no avail.  I am searching for a job that will not affect my mental or physical health that possibly has some benefits, i.e. insurance.  It turns out that apparently one must sacrifice part of one's integrity, health, etc., in order to get a job and keep it.  I know that next time I make a mistake, I will NOT be as quick to admit it, or to even use deception to keep the said job.

I actually liked the job I was terminated from.  I loved the people I worked with, the job itself was challenging, the benefits were excellent.  I thought that my personal integrity would help, i.e., admitting my mistake and ready to take the punishment, but I was wrong.

But perhaps the Universe wanted me to learn a hard lesson, one that you can only learn through experience-- that in order to truly appreciate what you have, you must have it all taken away to appreciate it.

Perhaps I have become too complacent, not thanking the Universe for the things that I have accumulated, the knowledge and the skills that I do have, and to develop the skills I have neglected. 

Universe, I want you to know that I get it.  I have to give of myself and all that I have in order to serve you and most importantly, to fulfill the plan that you have for me.  I will walk that path joyfully and impart that joyfulness to those around me.  I now remember the promise I made to you when I was just a little girl -- Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. 

Thank you for this lesson.  I'm sorry it took so long to get back to what I'm supposed to do.

The Universe is Kind...even when It's cruel, it's kind.
