For ANY reason, do not give up on yourself or life. Discouragement is rough. Somedays s*ck more than all the good days you've been having for the last few weeks. Don't give into whatever the heck it is thats bothering you today or yesterday.. This too shall pass. If you find that you can't release it or accept it, then do something about it. Just don't hold on to all that stuff that doesn't make your life better in anyway.

One day, as I sat musing, sad and lonely and without a friend, a voice came to me out of the gloom , saying, 'Cheer up. Things could be worse.' So. I cheered up, and sure enough, Things got worse!

Wonderful post, thank you! I have been job hunting for months now and it can get discouraging...I just keep trying, I believe that as long as I do the work, the job will come. I believe that in general, if you do the work, what you need will be yours. I did get a job two days ago but am turning it down. It is a job I would dread doing and have had enough of those...I have a lead for today, so will see. This may be the one!

Good post. I think everyone needs to be reminded of that sometimes.

I figure if I'm not in a Turkish prison, things are not that bad. Great post, Shasta.

it is not what happens that is success or failure,but what it does to the heart of man,no man is defeated unless he is discouraged.

I have to tell myself these things every day to keep moving forward. Some days it is easier to believe than others.

As discouraged as I am being Unemployed after 14 years of work with 2 companies I could get really discouraged!!! BUT God gave me this oppertunity to go back to college for my Masters to work with abused kids and I can now /volunteer at the Humane Society to walk adoptable dogs!! what I will miss money wise I am gonna make up for it satisfaction wise for my soul!!!! I may be scrapping financially for a while but my heart will be full!!!
