Twenty second week-Time to reinvent myself

You would think by now that I would have figured this whole thing out. You know the thing that all employers want for their prospective employees...You know....the perfect candidate...the one who will look good and make your company look good too. I have news for them...there is no perfect candidate!

Wow...what a freeing thought that is! So now I can stop struggling to fit in, and start being myself. I know who I am. I know what I want, but unfortunately I can't seem to get past the obstacles that are blocking me. I'm thinking to myself that I really need to stop focusing on those obstacles. We all have them. They become more apparent when you're struggling to find some meaning to your life and when it feels as if everything has been ripped out from beneath you.

I do have a lot of ideas about how to reinvent myself, and they don't include going back to school. I can't afford it, and in my current situation it is very unwise to go back into debt. Yes, some have suggested this as a good way to gain necessary skills. Yet I can't help thinking that you're really throwing away money if you can't get a job once you're finished....as a lot of college graduates are finding out now. No, I've been batting around in my head some ideas about going back to the simple things in life. I don't want to spend my whole life in front of a computer.....They're not friendly and you can't talk back to them....yet they can get you in a whole mess of trouble.

There are some good things about computers...this blog is hopefully helping someone. Facebook and Linkedin are okay...but sometimes I feel a bit leery about them too. I know there are many of you that are feeling the same way....
