After all, we are humans, so why should we not feel devastated when life throws something hard our way. Something we did not expect nor saw it coming, because we have always tried our best and still trying to make sure things are always aligned with life.
This is the thought that will always come to mind when our journey in life has a sudden shift from what it use to be. The happy 😆 days that is always full of laughter because everything is going on so well. We woke to a new morning for work, businesses or that vocational job that keeps us happy. And our bills are constantly being paid without struggle . But suddenly life happens and things started being rough, a situation that can occur in our lives because of unforeseen circumstances.
A friend of my is suffering from depression after she lost here job about three (3) months ago. We did not see it coming because this is a job she has had for years now and has truly contributed so much to it. But you know what the world 🌍 is turning into right now. You have to go with the times or you will start loosing out with the pace of the new era. The company suddenly decided to employ the new breeds who are the IT Wizards, those who can bring change and create with their imaginations running wild 😛, so shuffles were made and many who has been there for years has to go.
Although compensation was paid to those involved in the retrenchment to have something to fall back to, but that is not the plan for each an everyone involved. Starting something new after living a patterned lifestyle for years does not come easy. And because my friend never saw it coming, she does not know where to start from. Her plans was to work as long as possible and retire, and may be before then would have had other plans before retirement. But who told us things will always work out the way its planned. Or that our dreams in life will never have a shift?
She could not believe the sudden change and the shock that came with it which is why she is falling into depression. All she needs now is word of encouragement from family and friends. And for a quick turnaround, she needs to start something that will keep her busy, something that will engage her mind and that which will be fruitful as the years goes by. This is where the struggle cones in, especially the focus for a decision to move on in life.
Points To Ponder:
The era is changing with new ways to do things, which is why we must change with the timing.
We should not allow ourselves to rely only on one area of work. This era is demanding so much versatility from us.
Always be prepared at all times because uncertainties and unforeseen circumstances are the greatest challenges humans will face in this era of time.
However, the situation might not be from work, businesses, crafts. It might come from relationships , friendships, marriages, families, life dreams, goals and so forth. How far can we go in resisting be overwhelmed with a shift in our lives? How tough can we stand, knowing the situation needs to be battled out? Resilience is the key that can eventually turn things around again , but its never going to be easy. Don’t give up too fast !
Wishing you all a week full of thoughtfulness 🥰💕😇
