How do you find a reason to go on with the show?

For the last four years I had many setbacks in my life, some of them really devastating. I thought I can bear anything that comes but recently I fell apart and lost my job in just 24 hours. Above all this, I found myself obsolete, being useless in this state. The point is; how do you find a reason to get over a crisis like this, try to stand up after countless times being hammered down? How do you find a meaning to the day and to live after all?

I can respond to your discussion quite easily my friend, as I lost my job 10 months ago. This is the first time my entire life that I have ever been unemployed. I do not any income whatsoever and have loads of bills. Yes my world came crashing down as I use to make 100k a year.
I have refused to drown so I just keep hoping and praying. I am up everyday at 5am diligently all over the net with the hopes to get back on my feet. It is not easy, as I do fall some days short of hope. I lost my house, all savings gone, creditors screaming but what else can I do but keep trying.
If not what else crawl under a rock and never come out. Not quite a good choice at least for me, so the only thing left is to keep trying.

I've never seen that much money together you used to earn so sadly I have no idea how it feels when everything works like a charm. My CV is longer than a professional hitman's criminal records because at least once a year I had to find another job. Deduction is the second most common word in my country. Finding a job is one thing, to get back on the road again is another. Impossible to raise a family if you're always in motion like if you cursed to live like a ranger, begging for a home, a wife. I'm thinking to leave my homeland to whatever come. But where should I go?

Danny I am also thinking of the same, I do not believe I can do me yet another year without an income so leaving is in discussion already as what else can I do if I have nothing left and no room to even try anymore. Good luck to both of us.

Don't lost hope my friend. Don't count how many times you fall but count everytime you rise from being down. If I did it counting how many times I fall maybe I am lost already but I didn't do it instead I continue fighting the challenge of life. After I lost one of our family member and felt down because I was financially down I make my best to find job abroad and now here I am I already improved in terms of financial aspects and I continue helping my siblings who are until now still down. Even you felt you are crawling in the ground but still continue crawling until you have power to rise and say to yourself "Thanks God I make it". That's what I did and I get positive result after all.

After ten years every war lose its true goal and I've been in war with the world since I first made my stand. Trying to reach things not meant for me, to show to everybody that I AM! But as I look back over my shoulder I see only loss and an ever changing path of life without any rock solid point in it. Without a stinch of the feeling I truly belong somewhere or to someone. Even those years I spent in a relationship turned out to be a clever desception. I did stood up countless times and from time to time it become harder and harder to find a reason to live and doesn't make it easy if I feel myself obsolete. I could work abroad as you. My english is good enough I think to get along and I've been to England in 2006. But to pick up such a trail I need much more money than before because this time there wont be any support to have a kickstart of a new life there.
