A 27-year-old lady confessed, life is in a mess lately. She lost her job for company retrenchment. Her boyfriend, whom she has been seeing for 5 years broke off with her. She poured her sorrow at her ex-boyfriend and all she got was:"Sorry, I'm busy." Living at the age of 27, she suddenly felt that she is left with nothing. She is depressed.
Retrenchment and the broke-off are facts, reality that can't change. Life is full of ups and downs. God is graceful to you that you have an early broke off, that you have wasted not your youth on some undeserved people. When you have reach the age-of-no-return, it would be too late for you to turn back. Stay firm and strong, be motivated, it could be another opportunity ahead.
She began to feel that she's moving nowhere in her job which she had been working foor 6 yeard. she could have just live with it and forget about job-hopping. Well, all these that happened may be blessing in disguise. An entire new beginning in life.
What's the big deal? It's not the end of the world for being ditched by her guy. Why waste your time binding a heart that don't follow you, when you can plant it on a heart that gives you undivided attention and love. How worst could it be to picture yourself being ditched when you reach 37 year-old instead? The coldness of her ex-beau had proven right that you had make the right choice of leaving him.
Breaking off or retrenchment, we always feel the whole world tumbling down, and began to feel less motivated. After some time, you realised that it's just blessing in disguise. And you realise you woudn't be much happier and successful than leaving him and the job.
