First week unemployed - I had a dream

 I dreamt that I was at work on my last day and they did not want me to go.
It is now a week that I haven't got a job
I dreamt that my father was calling me to get an internship in a magazine. 
I cannot stop browsing for jobs and freelance opportunities. 

What is wrong or what is right?
There has not been a day I haven't been busy since I quit my job. But the sense of identity a job gives you is playing with my mind. I strangely know where this come from. Although, we were all born without a job, we were all trained to believe that we needed one. I love writing and organising events to bring people together, it is a job good enough for the time being until the new chapter begins. I will probably call my dad and thank him for everything he has done, I will tell him that 'I am freedom...' I know that with it come responsibility but I am handling that just fine'.

It is a human tendency to envy  others for what they possibly represent. The more we think of others, insecurity can possibly sit in. Disconnection between them and us become even more tangible as emotions are embellishing the illusions. The mind is the biggest manipulator we have probably ever met. There is nevertheless a fine line between envy and admiration. It is worth contemplating the true nature of your inner arguments. Admiration by William Adolphe Bouguereau Play a game of multiple iterations with me for a second. Pick a pen and paper First Iteration - Start with I am envying this person (name) because - write why you envying this particular person - Ask yourself if you know or saw the whole truth about this person's life - Pause Second iteration - Replace I am envying ...

Time to listen

Sometimes our own perspective on life may get in the way of what we understand when others speaks. Pause, breathe and really listen. You may learn something. if you are too busy with your own thoughts, you will not even realise what was said. You will probably misinterpret some important signal. So what to do, Pause, breathe, ask further questions before sharing an informed answer based on fact and not your own imagination
