I don't know what's with September and me feeling weirdly blue these days. I mean it isn't all days, it is one day in awhile. I am taking the advantage of having some stuff to be done around the house to keep my mind busy. In my position, I cannot let any single sad feeling or negative thoughts come for me. I must be stronger. A few hours ago I heard an evil voice in my mind telling me "Maybe you haven't gotten a job becuase you are not worth it" and I am like "what? I am so worth it, you inner saboteur won't stand in my way, I got this, and I'll succeed" don't know if this happens to you guys, I hope not. But come on, one's mind sometimes play tricks on us. Ugh!
Found this photo for my post which is so accurate to expresss what I feel like.

Thank you Carol. Insecurities always try to drag me down, I've been battling my inner voices since I was younger, but I will never let then win! I promise you!

@CarolDM thank you Carol. I really appreciate from the bottom of my heart for such encouraging words, even now that I am far away from home. Now it is my mission to pass on your energy that you just gave me with your comment. I know there will be somebody out there who feels like me so it will be my time to rescue them! God bless you!

@jvicentevalera I’m so glad to hear that. MyLot is a great place to be for taking your mind off things. I’m heading to bed right now, too. Have a good night’s sleep and pleasant dreams.

Thank you Dianne. I actually did. I also kept my mind busy after posting on mylot, and I felt better. I just showered and had dinner. Now I am catching up with my notifications. I think I am going to bed in a while. I really appreciate your friendship and how caring you are with all of us. I bet it will return to you in prosperity, love, good health and more.

Haven't heard of them @marguicha! I have the manager's phone number but I am a little shy to ask her, do you think I should text her to find out what's new?

@flapiz I am sure many of us are struggling with some sadness inside. I really appreciate to drop by, you don't know how much it means to me. I needed some words of encouragement from you guys. I got comments from people really valuable on this post and I couldn't be any happier! Thank you so much. When you feel down, don't hesitate to let us know and if I am around I'll go and rescue you!

Thank you Judy! I am applying for the jobs I feel more comfortable on line. It was last week when I started sending my resume because the lockdown around the city has loosened up so this is the perfect timing to look for a job. Wish me luck! I hope you have a good day ahead! May God bless you!

@sophie09 Norhing wrong happening specifically. I am getting stressed out becuase I haven't found a job, I have sent my resume to certain companies and no call back. I am in a foreign country I dont know if you knew, I moved here almost a year ago, once the pandemic started I went jobless. So now i am a little desperate. That's why I felt down hours ago.
