The Unemployment Crisis and Birthing a New You
by The mental lift and the moral glow from birthing a new YOU will add up to the most exhilerating satisfaction in the world.
We must, many for the first time in our lives, accept unemployment as a new opportunity for growth and adventure. William Shakespeare says, “You take my life when you take the means whereby I live.” I agree. Still, I imagine the hardest work in the world is being out of work and many of us get desperate and fall to drugs or alcohol. All healing is first a healing of the heart not the gut. A lot of people say they want to get out of pain, and I’m sure that’s true, but they aren’t willing to make healing a high priority. We have to look inside to see the source of our pain in order to deal with it. Nobody can help us do this.
The universe has plans for all of us. Delight in each new challenge. Listen for the ecstasy of understanding the blessings of changing jobs, meeting new people and challenging ourselves to try to do new things. We can’t find ourselves by looking for our self-esteem and/or identity in another’s eyes. We need to learn to make our lives more successful, and it takes time and a little selfishness to do this.
Women and men have to support one another not tear each other apart because of unemployment and hard financial times. We are like children and can be naughty with too much empty time on our hands. Humans need to be connected to achievement. We’re all deserving of the American dream of house, family and love. To get there, we need to stockpile all our personal innate talents and our assets; and draw on them day-by-day until we find ourselves a new definition of who we are or want to be. I’ve heard it said we are healed of suffering only when we’ve experienced it fully. You must make your mind both keener and more flexible to birth a new you for a new future.
