Just Falls Into Place

How amazing it feels to know that life falls into place as it should. Despite any bumps in the road that may have tried inhibiting you from doing what you needed to do, things do happen for a reason, and eventually you are in a good place to get your life going.

I jumped ahead of myself... let's start from the top.

Let's go back to the infamous "hunt" for a job I was on. I was on the "hunt" for a good amount of time, that had changed a lot of my original perspectives on life for the better. It was very exhausting on me, mainly mentally and emotionally during that time period, and something I hope I do not ever have to face again. Being "job-less" was not on my bucket list of things to accomplish within my life. I am a person that simply just does not enjoy living off of government checks (which wasn't completely awful, I will admit), and was not okay with doing nothing everyday, for a lack of a better word. Okay, so I wasn't exactly doing nothing, but that was only because I was forcing the motivation within myself to actually not be, well, lazy. I helped my older brother and sister-in-law, and would watch my nephew a few times during the week. I designed a blog for my friends clothing boutique (which I am still currently doing/involved in; check it out! http://tenderbabesboutique.blogspot.com/). I would work a day of camp every now and than if a holiday came up. I volunteered at my church with the youth ministry program (again, currently still involved). I'm sure I was doing more, but lastly, I was consistently talking to people, searching, and applying to jobs whenever I could. It is safe to say that I was definitely a very busy unemployed person, and I am happy with the fact that I continued to put my available time to good use as best as I could.

I am more than happy to say now after all the hard searching, constant prayers, support from family and friends (whom I can not thank enough for helping me get through the whole process) I finally did it. You are now looking at, (or should I say reading about) the new addition to the Baja Sharkeez Corporate Accounting Department! Yes, I am FINALLY employed once again! And I feel more blessed than ever, to be able to say "I have a job." A very good one too, that is hard work (I mean it's accounting), but that I am enjoying so far. Despite whether I enjoy it or not though, the important thing is that I have a job, unlike a very large percentage of our country at the moment. You know what? It feels pretty damn good to be doing something with my life again.

You must know though, I do not despise that whole time where I was "job-less". That whole unemployed period just made me really appreciate alot about life that I never was really taking the time to stop and appreciate. It gave me a chance to re-evaluate alot about my life, and I am grateful I actually had a moment to stop and do that. Job or no job, I will forever try my hardest not to let life in general just pass me by. Going through the motions is a no, no. Being actively apart of life and actually living it, basically is not even a question. Join me, as I embark on my next chapter of life.

Work hard, play hard, enjoy it all, soak it in... don't let it just pass you by. <3
