a lot of us we’re in the same boat

currently listening to: Pretty Girls Make Graves-The New Romance

i’ve posted a lot over the past year or so about being patient waiting for jobs and housing situations to work themselves out and I’ve been thinking this week how just about everyone I see regularly is facing similar situations.  I guess its somewhat comforting to know that I’m not alone in this.  I hope its somewhat comforting to you too.

I know a lot of us are of different faiths and beliefs and whatever but i think we’ve all heard “good things come to those who wait”.  it is true…at least i know i believe it.   dont ever get discouraged.  new opportunities come out of nowhere everyday but at the same time if something doesnt quite seem right, and i’m not talking like dont take any risks at all, but if it just doesnt feel right then it probably isn’t.  Immediate satisfaction rarely if ever pays off longterm.  Its ok to suffer for a while for something that will benefit you for years to come.  and something will come.  have faith, no one is alone. 

I do try to keep everyone in mind cause as you can see, a lot of of are searching, looking, trying new and unknown things…

Jason-finishing school in the fall and looking for work

Adam-waiting on a RR job

Pat-one year of school left then looking for work

Abbie-applying for jobs/looking for a place

Bekah-applying for teaching jobs

Will-applying for jobs

Joanna-starting some new part-time jobs

Jake-switched teaching jobs

and just know that this is just a partial list of people i know going through these things.  I try to keep track of everyone and what they are dealing with.
