When my company closed down, a part of me did as well. I did find another job, but the job I have now is nothing like what I had or what I wanted. Still, I'm very thankful to have a job.

What I have noticed is that my other job defined who I was to a big degree. The job I have now was very hard for me because it wasn't who I was. It started to become what I did for a living. Now that is a positive thing, but in the beginning, as I fought it, it was horrid. I was so lost and struggling.

Now I am learning who I am, by myself, not because of what I do. It's been a real learning experience and while it was bumpy, I'm thankful that my job doesn't define me now. Good luck to you as you find what you need.
