Someone once told me that there is always a silver lining in every dark cloud. I have believed it, and now I think I know it.
I have been in my current city for 3 1/2 years. I have never really adapted or felt like this was home or even somewhere I wanted to call home. Don’t get me wrong, Alta Loma, CA is a beautiful, family oriented city, but it has just never worked for me. Each time I would drive toward or even near my previous hometown of Brea, CA, I would find a certain peace come over me.
Well, last night I went to a girlfriends birthday bash, in Brea, and it finally hit me. This is where I belong.
So back to the silver lining, I do believe that you can control, or at least assist in the navigation of your destiny. Maybe somewhere deep inside I never wanted to stay in this new city and longed for my return to the city I call home. So while at my friends bash last (remember, I have been unemployed for 10 months) I met some wonderful people who offered to help me with my job search. I have already sent them my resume and thank you emails.
I am inspired and excited about returning home. I know this is where I belong . With hard work and dedication, I, along with me daughter and dog will return to what was for us a great place to call home.
