Today has been a long day, I'm sure it was for everyone. I'm about two seconds away from creating a new facebook account where I keep my friends at and go to that one exclusively and just let the old one die cause I really don't want to see some of the b.s. that's come around.
In other news, I don't think I mentioned in here that I had been fired from my job last week. It was rough, and I've recovered. The fact that Pax is seeing a revamp is helping since I'm able to work on something creatively to give me a break from job hunting. The good news is I've found one I'm very excited about applying for, even if it mean's I'd be driving for about an hour to get there every day I work. It's within my field and in my specialty, so here's hoping I get an interview, and even more important-- the job.
I've found that through losing my job I'm provided with the opportunity to be more social and as a result I've been spending a lot of time with friends and reconnecting with the people I've missed over the course of the last year or so. It's healing to be with people I love and care about.
Also rediscovering my spirituality, and my need for soul-searching within myself. It's been fun to be honest.
Most importantly-- I feel more at peace with the world around me, and it's driven me to create a balance between mind/body/spirit. A quality of life I've been desperate to reclaim.
Moving on, I'm going to tie up loose ends for Nereida and make what they do next rather ambiguous so when the time comes for a time skip, that's been covered. Expect a post in the next day or two.

Change often comes in strange ways. I find for myself it's often in the most unexpected and seemingly worst ways possible. I hate change, myself, in the instance it happens. I get major anxiety. Yet at the end of the cycle it always turns out to be for the better, despite all the tears and fear.
The universe has a strange way of setting us on paths and showing us lessons. I learned pretty early in my adolescence, from my dad, to following your gut instinct, and that your first choice is always the right one, even if at the time it doesn't feel like it should be. The and again I've tested this theory out of doubt and each time I've been proven that its true.
Even with following these signs, I still get those radical life-changing moments. Like you said, you do just have to roll with them. Grieve, accept and move forward. Find the lesson in the action and keep learning.
I'm really glad you're finding all the positives in your recent life-changing moment. And I'm also really glad to hear that this hasn't made you any less determined or disheartened in regards to continuing to job search. Some people I know have been in the same situation and just deteriorated. Went on EI and just took years to get over it, and themselves.
Keep doing you. Stay creative. Keep putting your positivity out into the world. It will come back to you
