Curving up

This transition from life as a student embarking on a life long journey to a professional in the working class has literally been a roller-coaster ride. The emotional thrill rides of the ups and downs, false promises disguised in the name of business or professional ethics, and the daily repetitive mundane tasks almost had the better of me. However, it was the daily vicissitudes of job-hunting coupled with determination and a positive attitude that prevented me from surrendering. The past few months has not been much of a thrill ride at all to say the least. I hit the pits. I was in the trough of motivations. It was like I was heading straight to a hell hole with many deadly cockscrew twists.

Just when I think there is no end to the descend, the ride I am now experiencing is leveling up and it's going to be curving upwards. With no idea what to expect ahead on the ride up, I am certain to be enjoying every moment of it throughout. I would not have been able to pull myself through if not for those who have helped me, therefore, I would like to extend my gratitude to them (you know who you are!).

In times like what seems to be impossible or futileness and/or disappointment, I recognized the importance of staying calm under tension and embracing the fight-back spirit of determination. Never give up. Perhaps nothing is really impossible. It's just a matter of time.
