warmth

Started to network more for work. Still letting things happen on their own but being more focused day-by-day.

Understand that I am suppose to be in this phase of my life, to disengage slightly and start over my way of life.

Thought back fondly that the previous two times of unemployment brought amazing renewal to my life. The first time of being unemployed I found new friendships and the second unemployment led me back to the City. This time, I am finding my true self.

Of course, those periods of disengagement also brought some unpleasant memories. I cannot blame anyone else even though there was pain, but I am stronger for it.

This time around, I try to focus on all the good things. I am spending unprecedented time with people, and the connection is amazing. I feel euphoria even if people are not all upbeat. I finally figured out how to care without taking on other people's emotions.

Who knew? The best way to grow is just to sit back and bask in others' attention.
