As a
child, did you ever get lost? When I was about 5 years old I got lost at
Jones Beach and couldn’t find my way back to my parents. It was
terrifying. I thought I would never find them in the sea of beach
umbrellas and blankets, but I did.
Losing a
job can be devastating and make a person feel they’ve lost their way. If
you’re currently out of work does this feeling sound familiar to you? I
bet if you ask anyone who has lost their job they would agree they have felt
the same way at one point. I have been in this place myself (more times
than I care to count) and learned that the best remedy is to get out amongst
the living and network. You don’t have to feel as alone and lost as I did
as that little girl on the beach.

Hi Laura,
ReplyDeleteGreat advice as usual. Funny, I was lost at Jones Beach too! I still feel lost most of the time, but at least I network in the meantime.
Susan,
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you must be a great therapist but you could be a stand up comic if you ever get tired of delving into people's heads!
