Confused Unsure Needs Good Home

aviator by aviator · Jul 22, 2004 · 120 views · Journal

So lately my life has been a bit of a drag. I think I have had my biggest lows as of late. Just it seems like no matter how hard I try I don't seem to make any new ground. Especially at this job. These past 2 weeks I have had to work with the most annoying inappropriate person ever. Between this guy talking about dirty subjects all day long and his complete ways of talking like an idiot to me it is becoming very tough to bare. I know there are usually a few like this with most jobs. Just its hard to respect someone who kisses major butt and gets them nowhere

Also I got offered a job with a large company in Seattle. I really want to take it. It is the kind of job I have wanted for soooooo long. Engineer 1. A great way to continue my career and make a decent living without being a complete MANAGER. I am really at a confused time. I want to take the job but then I risk hardly ever seeing friends and family again. I also take on a greater toughness living away from everything I am used to. I don't know what to do.

And I just find myself adoring my girlfriend in the most wonderful ways lately. I just want to hold her and feel her in my arms so much at times because when you have a life that is so consumed by secular things you feel very lonely. I really hate to say it but I think my job has taken away a big part of who I am. Maybe there will be a couple of brighter days in my future here but that is very uncertain. Especially when you are young and lack wisdom and knowledge and problems seem bigger than they really are. Call me crazy but I am getting the hugest urge to get a job handing out fliers on the street or delivering Chinese food. At least those jobs are a dime a dozen and if you lose it you dont care.

Anyways

Pray about it. Moving far away is a big challange and scary. And as my step-father told me tonight, you won't have the saftey net that you currently have. When you're feeling down out there who will you turn to? It's hard, especially when you don't know anyone.

Take a hard look at the position and your goals, especially your spiritual ones. Will this job prevent or prolong acheiving those goals? What about your girl friend? Plan on getting married anytime soon? How will a long distance relationship work? Is she willing to leave her family and friends to go out there?

It's a lot to think about, and really the only and best advice I can give you is to pray about it, over and over and over again. Don't make a decision until your sure it's the right one. I'm sure you will, and regardless, always lean on Jehovah through it all and you'll be alright. :)

Will he not have a computer? Have they not figured out how to connect hawaii (and island) to the rest of the world internet?

perrin #2.1.1.1 perrinOG 2004

Talking over the computer and actually seeing someone to hang out are 2 very different things.
