Often in life we are so busy pleasing everyone else and fitting society or what we "should" be doing with our lives, we forget what's enjoyable to us. For instance I enjoy cooking and baking, learning about health and nutrition and astrology.

I also have a mantra that keeps a smile on my face and reminds me how fortunate I am "I am grateful for everything, I have no complaints"

Try to say it, it brings over a sense of gratitude for having my needs satisfied even if my wants are...well..working on it!

I just want to say that I too am going thru a difficult period in my life. I am getting out of a very negative situation in my life and it is hard, especially to deal with the fact that I have stayed in it for so long, too long. But blaming is pointless, action is key. When all is said and done, more is said than done so basically I have to keep my head up while I go through this

and welcome and please stick around and you will find great people here

The answer to your question is very SIMPLE. That pattern in your life will go on for as long as you allow it to go on.

The choice is only YOURS. YOU got married, YOU can divorce. YOU got the job, YOU lost the job, YOU can get a new one and a more enjoyable one! A more enjoyable one will bring you more rewards - including money! And so on...

YOU have all the answers... have you ever really listened to your heart?

I agree with Fajita - pointing fingers is useless, action is the key.

Anyway, coming here is a giant first leap. Welcome!

Forgive my bluntness, but I'm a double Scorpio! I'm hopeless at flattering!

"Forgive my bluntness, but I'm a double Scorpio! I'm hopeless at flattering!"

Boy!!! i smiled and thought how silly i was to get upset on reality ur right "I" am the cause to my problems but regarding job front "I" am not the cause at all since I lost the job as my contract was up. Regarding getting a job, I am trying my max but nothing is working out due to the economic situation of US. Hiring is very slow job market was supposed to pick up in jan but it is just still i am just worried abt my finances, being out of job ain't fun ...

I apologise if I have inadvertently hurt your feelings, that certainly was never my intention. Your wellbeing is more important to me than you liking me or what I say. And I know that the quickest way to wellbeing is facing the facts.

Two of my friends have just returned from a holiday (vacation) in Gambia. They were telling me about all sorts of seriously awful things... For instance, when they were going from the airport to the hotel, a Gambian noticed that one of my friends had a plastic bottle of diet coke. Instantly, a line of about 45 children formed in front of the hotel, waiting. What were they waiting for? They were waiting for one of my friends to throw away the plastic coke bottle. They are that poor! Not to mention that many of them will probably never have an opportunity to get a job. Ever.

Have a look around you... and see how many people are worse off than you? Count your blessings, hold your head up high... and expect a Miracle! Trust me, they do happen. All the time.

I work in a financial company

Don't worry- we will be OK!

I have to give you alot of credit by realizing that you create your own reality and not getting upset by what Miracle said. When one hears "you do this to yourself" they often get the wrong message. You realized that you have control in your life and that is SO KEY to making miracles come true! Good for you!

MEMO FROM GOD

To: YOU
DATE: TODAY
FROM: THE BOSS
Subject: YOURSELF
Reference: LIFE

I am God. Today I will be handling all of your problems. Please remember that I do not need your help.

If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot
handle, do not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in the SFGTD
(something for God to do) box. All situations will be resolved, but in My time, not yours.

Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold onto it by
worrying about it. Instead, focus on all the wonderful things that are
present in your life now.

If you find yourself stuck in traffic; Don't despair. There
are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.

Should you have a bad day at work; Think of the man who has
been out of work for years.

Should you despair over a relationship gone bad; Think of the
person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in
return.

Should you grieve the passing of another weekend; Think of
the women in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children.

Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from
assistance; Think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to
take that walk.

Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror; Think of the
cancer patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.

Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life
all about, asking what is my purpose? Be thankful. There are those who didn't live long enough to get the opportunity.

Should you find yourself the victim of other people's
bitterness, ingnorance, smallness or insecurties; Remember, things could be worse. You could be one of them!

Should you decide to send this to a friend; Thank you, you may
have touched their life in ways you will never know!

Its worth to treasure and a good read when I/anyone looses grip of the reality.

Thanks a bunch for sharing and touching my life.
