Moving on

There are always interesting things that happen in life. You graduate from school; you break up with the love of your life; you get a new job. Lots of stuff.

Recently there have been so many "moving on" points in my life and people probably look at what I write and roll their eyes. I hope you don't read this and ever think, "Oh, poor her" because that is not what this is all about. I want you to realize I write not only to get my frustrations out, but to let people know they are not alone.

So often we think we are alone when we are going through something. We look all around ourselves and wonder why we are the only ones having such a hard time; when we don't realize that they too are struggling, maybe just not as publicly.

Moving on is a good and necessary part of life. There are many times that we don't want to and we think things will just work themselves out. Well, they don't and the sooner we realize it, the better off we are. There are reasons things don't work out and that is because there is something bigger and better out there.

For example: I had this internship and it was my dream to get a job there. There was nothing better than waking up in the morning and knowing that I loved to go to work. They told me there would be a job and so I waited, and waited, and waited some more. Then they told me there wasn't going to be a job and I hung on in hopes that there would be one. It never came and I had to go job hunting.

My new job is wonderful and I enjoy it a ton. If I had not taken the hint to move on, I think I may have been and intern forever... I had to give up something good for something great. And this is so great!

Moving on is OK. It is a necessart part of life. Things will be OK.
