Although i'm not much of a believer,God or me or something i can't understand was the only one that listened withouh judging and guided without giving directions to follow.I am at peace with myself now.At last...at long last.

I feel defeated myself:
http://joeknowledge.modblog.com/?show=blogview&blog_id=458498

On public assistance because my employer lied about my unemployment statis (and would have no matter what I filed) so I can;t get any unemployment

On top of that, this is the same place where I was harrassed. On top of that, they do it to other people.

I have no money, my websites I am developing are going down one by one (even my portfolio site of which I use to try to get work), my credit is getting worse, my health is already bad (high blood pressure) because of the abuse I endored from work with my old employer. I lost school because I had to drop so many classes from being sick and my finacial aid was cut.


And now, I have the embarrassment of having people ask questions about my unemployment statis when finding new jobs, having a EVR assurance people visit my home, and in the end take a 7.00 an hour job with no possiblility of moving up all while having a degree.


This is what I get for trying to switch careers in 2001 while living in NYC

JoeKnowledge, I'm sorry too. I've been down some of those roads this year, and I know what it's like to wake up and have your eyes glazed like a zomby because you feel your life is not worth a sh%^#. But you, Joe, are one of the inspiring people here on this site and that probably is a reflection of every other aspect of your life. Time changes everything (as you well know how it changed for you in 3 years). 3 years from now you could be sitting on that yacht remembering the dirt you were dragged through. Hold on, buddy. From where I'm sitting you are a whole lot more than a wage and a statistic. You're a work of art. A real quality one that was designed by a master. Your character and personality is what you are when the world takes a dump on you. All I can say is get through one day at a time and all of this will pass.
