For how long?


Right now, I don't feel like writing. My spirit is down. Months after serving the nation, I am still here without a job and it is killing me.


For how long

Will this smile go wrong.

For how long

will i wait for the pretty sun?



I hope i won't wait forever.

My dear, this is the time to prepare for your job. How will you manage the work hours? How will you manage work relationships? How will you handle work demands.

A job will surely come. Please do not compare yourself with all those around you.

....a little while my daughter and the months you waited would become history. A story to be retold with smiles.

Meanwhile, while you wait, learn the lessons, prepare and equip yourself for the work ahead.

It will come...and when it comes it will be the best one...just chill, keep ur ears open and read the guardian newspaper...I got my first job in mtn through the guardian, I didn't know anyone that works there...

You won't wait forever!
Your wait for the pretty sun would pay off dearie!
I feel you, I had to wait (after serving ) for almost 2 years.....
I was the one everyone thought would not have a problem getting a job immediately, the one with a bright future...I now became the one to be pitied....I found myself settling for 'just anything.

I lost myself esteem, stopped to believe in myself, but then...God showed up,it was just phone call that morning, by the next day, I found myself was resuming for a job!...just like that!
and from then on, its been forward ever,now I even refuse some job offers.
I join my faith with yours..the wait won't be long.
Expecting to hear your testimony next time, here, soon.

Hi.
Like you, it's been a month today since POP, and no job (yet). Like Rita sed, this time is for us to prep ourselves for work - time to decide if we're going to be mere "cogs in the wheel" or truly effective people. Aside from reading my gmat and staying current, Im also reading good books on leadership and stuff.
Just use this time well. It eill pay off.
Ok, end of sermon. Hope u find encouragement.

I just realised you sed you finished monthS ago, not month. Sorry about that. My Sis was at home for about 40+ months, but this is not your portion in Jesus' name.
Hang on.

Well, sometime we're down! Sometimes we're cursed to wait. Sometimes for a day, sometimes for a week, a month, a year...

We do need to live. Live as we can, live with feelings, frozen inside or anyway else.

Really tough times don't last. God will make a way for you to get a great job. Keep the faith and take this time as ur leave served early. It is well.
