I was making you, and myself wait for another amazing opportunity. Another one of my dreams to come true. Another job offer. You see - 3 weeks ago, I thought I had found my ideal job. A sign from god. The universe. It was everything I thought I wanted. My dream #334. I spent days writing my cover letter. It was amazing. I got a call back within hours of sending my CV. I went to one unorthodox interview (group interview), and made it to the second round. The second round was a volunteer meet up. It was there that a girl asked me what I did. I told her about my job. She said 'wow, that sounds Awesome! you're lucky you have a job and looking for employment. There's nothing out there. Can I send you my CV?' - and for once, instead of complaining, I thought - yeah I'm pretty lucky aren't I?
I had putting everything on hold to hear back about that job. I just had to have it. I never wanted anything more in my life. I didn't do any work at my current job. Infact, I had already written my resignation letter. I was adamant i'd get it, and my life would change.
Until that night. I went home, talked to my best friend, who told me - woman, don't be negative. Stop complaining. You're already living the life of your dreams - you're just not realizing it. You want a happy life? Count your blessings & recognize how lucky you are. That's when your life will be 'happy'. Stop looking for a way out. Every job is hard at the beginning, everyone must struggle a little to get to where they want, and if you haven't - then it's probably not worth it.
I'm waiting for the third round, but I'm not holding my breath. Infact, i'm taking it easy and working hard. I'm inhaling the love, and exhaling the negativity. This is my dream life, and I'm still dreaming it forward. But now atleast I can differentiate from being just a lazy dreamer - to an idealistic do-er. So I toast again to patience, gratitude, family, income, friends & health. If I have all those, I have happiness. And so it is, that happiness I have.
