Two years ago this time, I had confidence in my future. I was about to graduate from one of the most prestigious schools and was sure that I would find a job easily. I thought by this time, I’d be married, or at least have someone I’d love. It took me seven months to find a short-term job and then another offer from another great organization. I accepted the offer but something went wrong and I still have not started the job, and waiting to hear from other employers and keep applying, and applying. I can’t talk to anyone of my friends because I am embarrassed, as everyone continues to live their lives enjoying their work, relationships and availability of all amazing opportunities while I am stuck in one corner waiting for something great to happen. I work so hard and I don’t understand what is happening in my life. I don’t know what is wrong with me. I have no idea why things are not working out and why I am still alone, without a job that will provide me with a sense of security. I have no security and I am losing hope. Living is getting hard for me. Will the sun ever shine above me again?
