The End of Unemployment Compensation

As I end my time on unemployment and look forward to a new start in a new job, I feel no regret for the past 18 months that I spent growing in new directions, learning new skills, meeting many new and interesting people, and the words of Cross Creek come to mind as I embark on my new journey: "It is more important to live the life one wishes to live, and to go down with it if necessary, quite contentedly, than to live more profitably but less happy." We only go round once in this world, making the most of it, the most of our talents, opening our eyes to the beauty around us in spite of all the ugliness that also inhabits this world - enjoy the journey and never stop learning, never stop seeing with new eyes!
