Friday night, at the park with my nephews- just enjoying the day and time together. It's been beautiful all day, I hope you got out and put your face in the sun for a bit.
I think the number one question I've been getting its "OMG, are you okay/alright/gonna be fine?!" Let me give a very loud "YES", like extra super loud, with a smile. Absolutely, positively, without a doubt- I am ok. Not just because I'm like being Patty Positive, but because I've already done this.
Two years ago I was unemployed for several months. Several months of "I'm looking and not finding!", "I don't want to ask you, but can I borrow?" and "I don't have a job right now". Guess what? I didn't die! Things took time, but they worked out and I find that's the way things are. Sometimes they seem shitty and you get up and think about how you're going to make it through and you do. One foot in front of the other.
That's the beauty in a repeat, you already know what happens. The scary parts are less scary, the parts you didn't know you already know and the best part- you know how things end.
Things will end just fine because I will make them that way. So, yes, I am fine and if you're going through something you will be too. You'll struggle, you'll cry, you'll question but everyday you don't die, you aren't finished. Sounds morbid, but it's true. I'm not dead, so I can't possibly be done. I'm gonna chalk this up to a learning experience and enjoy the beauty in knowing the end to this story. Oh and being able to say "Hi, I'm Courtney King, I'm a writer" is just an added bonus! #NotDeadNotDone #SecondTime #BorrowSeason #LaidOffEdition
