So many people I know are going through tough times at the moment - so many close friends - and sometimes I really do wish life was easier, for everyone. I guess we all go through our crises, but it's so sad to see what we have to battle with all the time, whether it's ourselves, our families, our circumstances. And yet, we're the lucky ones! We're young, well educated, we have good prospects... Still, to get 'there', to where we want to be, it takes so much effort. I can only hope that, as my father told me a couple of months ago, everything falls into place, eventually.
Speaking of which, things are slowly falling into place for me, I think (I hope). In a couple of hours I have an interview with a temp agency, and we'll see where that takes me. I'm excited, and nervous. Nervous that I'm not one of those people who 'interview well', excited that I might be finally doing something soon and, yes, earning some money.
Maybe we are the lucky ones. But we need to see it, and we need to be aware of it, and also, we need to be able to take advantage of it. It's not easy. I guess life never is, and that's the harder thing to admit to myself: maybe it will never get easier, and I need to face that.
