I wish I was a kid

Sometimes I wish that I can go back in time and just never grow up. It seems that responsibilities as a grown up can be too difficult to handle. Don't you just feel that life as a child was so much easier? No responsibilities, no financial worries, no career worries, and no adult type decision-making. As a child, all you worry about is what toy you are going to play with that day or where did I put my G.I. Joe? It just seems that if I could go back in time I wouldn't worry about why my parents ask me to "not do this" or "not do that". No I have thousands of worries, on a larger scale. What investments am I going to invest? What food am I going to make for the family? Am I going to find a job worthy of my experience? etc. I just love being an adult. :)

Looking for a New Chapter

So everything seemed to be going so well for me. I had a great little boy. Financially looking good. And then BAM! "Thank you so much Josh for your 9 1/2 years of service to our company, but we are going to have to let you go. Oh and by the way we don't offer a severance package, but we will give you two more weeks of pay." WOW!!! It just seems you give your heart and soul in a place for so long and they just slap you in the face. With all that said, I truly believe that this was a blessing. I had started to grow tired of working there. The working environment became difficult and the companies decisions started to become worrisome. So to be quite honest..."Thank you Company X for allowing me to gain a lot of contacts over the years, and i meant what I said I truly wish you luck and hope your company goes under." Ok maybe a little too mean. But this is great I have a New Chapter in my life and I can't wait what God has in stored for me.
