Happy Friday y’all! I hope you had a wonderful week and your weekend is spectacular because you deserve nothing but the best! Of course, being a stress case is something I am really good at, but I have been enjoying the extra time I have had on my hands to write more. Between writing daily, with music in my ears, I have had the time to think clearly. I have considered what it is I want out of life and what makes me happy, but also what I do not want any part of.
Sometimes taking a step back from everything in life to clear your mind, offers clarity to where we want life to be. Always having a full-time job, really stalled my dreams. I never had the time to take that large step into what I want out of life. Over the past few weeks I kept telling myself no matter what BS reason I was given or even what I think the reason is for losing my job was, it was bigger than both of those things. The reason may have been the kick in the butt I needed to stop talking about it and just dive into trying to build my freelance career. I must admit it seems a little (OK A LOT) overwhelming because I can’t just focus on one piece at a time. I keep looking at everything I need to do all at once and then get stuck on one thing. Right now I am stuck on finishing my overview and struggle with what to write so potential clients will see my skills. If y’all have any suggestions or advice, please let me know!
The quote I decided to share with y’all for “Let It Go Friday”, pretty much goes along with the first part of this post. I do think it takes courage to continue on, especially when you feel like the rug was pulled out from under you. Sometimes we will succeed in life and sometimes we will fail, but no matter how many times we fall, we always find a way to get back up, dust ourselves off, and continue on! Sometimes being stubborn pays off and will help get us where we desire in life!
Thank you so much for stopping by my site today! I always appreciate your kindness, support, friendship, and encouragement! No pressure, but I am looking forward to reading your comments and know they will be amazing! I hope you have a wonderful day and you are feeling the best you can. Please never forget that I am always sending y’all LOTS of love
, comfort, and many positive vibes!
Always, Alyssa
may God bless you with peace this weekend.

Sometimes it is impossible to benefit in difficult situations, but I promise you there is benefit in everything. That has been my experience and believe me I have so many hard times, hard jobs, lose of jobs, all sorts. I believe if you look for benefit there will be so many even in hard situations

I think losing my job was meant to push me to pursue my dream of a career in writing. The thing that makes me angry about losing my job is, I did not do anything to deserve it and I told them upfront I had MS. I wonder if they were fined by the state for illegally terminating me. Who knows? What’s done is done!

It is very different in the USA to UK. But losing a job is hard either way. Well I guess you can follow up with the state? May be it is a blessing in disguise?

Thank you! The state is already on my side and said they did what they did illegally. We will see if somehow this was a blessing in disguise. I probably already knew this, but you are in the UK?

Yeah I am in uk. We have to take an employer to tribunal when we feel we have been unfairly dismissed.
Well I hope you won with the state. And you can make a new start

Of course, I have never been to the UK and only seen pictures, but it looks beautiful there!
The state was on my side and I will be collecting unemployment.
