I feel like blogging today after many weeks.
After a very long and disturbing emptiness, I am finally starting with a small casual role in a jewellery company. I am nervous, yet hopeful. Maybe this is a first step towards building a career that I dreamt of. I am feeling very anxious.
In the last few months I have doubted myself many times and have quietly and desperately longed for nothing but a chance to prove myself. I have dreaded meeting people because I was scared of the question "what do you do?". I have been afraid of my personal life being adversely affected by my (un)employment status.
Today I am just looking back at the last 6 months and praying that this would be the beginning of better luck. Although I know my job is quite insignificant and so am I, but I am thankful for this opportunity because an odyssey starts with one step.
Now is when I most need the well wishes and blessings of friends and family.
