Hitting Rock Bottom

I lost my job in May of 2009 and it was like the world stopped revolving. I was not shocked so much because I knew that it was coming eventually but I was not expecting it so soon. Of course because I am such an obsessive list maker I came home right away to start planning out what the hell I was going to do.


So I sat down…still in my work clothes……and was frozen. Absolutely lost.

Folks…this is what rock bottom feels like………lost.

So I allowed myself to feel this feeling completely without forcing myself to make a list. I think that the act of “letting go” was more powerful than any list I could make.

There are things that we never want to let go of, people we never want to leave behind. But keep in mind that letting go isn’t the end of the world, it’s the beginning of a new life.
