At Last

Sorry for the radio silence. I may have a job offer.  What do I feel? Elated, pleased and a sense of acheivement and also.. a little bitter.  The pressures of society. Its expectations.  Someone seen as useless is thrown out of the hive.

First morning after I lost my job, I cried. A grown man cry. When you realise you have nowhere to go. The bitterly cold winter months when I was home alone, I could have cried. Trying to keep warm and busy. It was the loneliest time in my life. Was it the bottom? Perhaps.

Whats the lesson - sounds glib BUT one must have more to life than just work and its trappings. 

More to come.
