It's Lonely Out There

Even though you know you're among thousands (heck, millions nationwide) of job seekers, it's impossible not to feel isolated and alone.

I ran across a recent post. In it the author wrote, "In a world dominated by self-agrandized agitprop, people need to rely on their own perception and problem solving skills."

I'll have to look up some of those words, but the essence of what he or she said couldn't be more true. As my Mom used to tell me, "Only you are resposible your own direction in life."

Yes, life throws curveballs at us when we least expect them. But it's how we bounce back that matters. Grieve a little. Get a little angry if you must. When the dust settles, be calm, take matters into your own hands, think clearly, work out a strategy, and take action.
