What line of work are you in DaSap? Not to sugar coat things, but in life, when one door closes, another one opens. Its a universal law of physics, action and reaction.

You have a beautiful 2 year old daughter? Give her the one true gift this Christmas that money can't buy - your love.

It'll go a long, long way my friend, and feels better than anything in the whole wide world.

I've been hit with adversities that most can't comprehend, and have always come out for the better. Hang tough and hit the ground running and doors to better things will open. You have the responsibility of a baby coming but you also have the blessing of a child on the way. Nothing is as bad as it seems and there is always someone worse off.

Someone once said," What doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger." Take this hurdle in stride and in the future you can look back and realize that you can conquer anything life throws at you.

-Mark

what you need right now is the drill sgt. from full metal jacket(Lee Earmy?)screaming in your ear to give you an up by your bootstraps talk....
hold your head up son, you are part of an elite brotherhood here and will survive what ever life throws at you.
take this time and oppurtunity to better yourself and make a better life for your daughter.
find a job and never let your baby go without.
not really meaning to sound less than sympathetic but
what the brothers here have told you is true, when this door closes the next one will open, you just have to be ready to step through it.

Its probably of little solace at this point, but I went through a number of years of despair and depression. It wasn't bravery or courage or divine intervention that got me through; it was endurance and cluelessness. The simple realization that the only way through it was to go through it, and the concerned, loving way my kids refused to believe that there wasn't some way I could make things come out the right way. You've got a beautiful daughter who I'm sure is certain her Dad will do just fine.

Mike,

Hang in there brother. I will keep in touch, you try to do the same. A cliche that I have learned to be true the hard way and that is God does not give us more than we can handle. Keep your head up.

Peace,
Chris

Hang in there dude,

Life is full of surprises,
sometimes good... sometimes bad.

Like several other brothers have said, a door will open. When the next door does open, it may be a good surprise.
Clear your head, focus and drive through the rain. If you pull on side the road, under an overpass and wait for it to clear. You could be waiting a long time, not accomplishing anything.
Keep moving this way or that, but don't become stactic.

Cuda,

Hang in there Mike.

I too was laid off a couple years back and it is a rough thing to go through. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise. I’m better off now and happier than I ever was. You have a lot to look forward to and there are better things ahead, you just don’t know it yet.

When settle out, I’ll bet you’ll look back and say the same.

Mike,

You have my snailer and email from our trade. If you need to talk or if i can help a brother out ,let me know. I'll just say this,you need to stay focused on what matters most. You have to decide what that is my friend. We all have to endure things like this,because thats what makes us human. Im going through some things myself,but i refuse to let them bring me down.







jeezy peezy!

EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON MY FRIEND. THIS IS GODS WAY OF SHOWING YOU THERE IS SOMETHING CALLING YOU OUT THERE, GO FIND IT!! Sorry to yell, but don't give in man, make Lemonade out of Lemons!!! God, that's cheezy, but true. Good luck, stay in touch.

i would assume our friend dasap has a pounding headache this morning.

you've got some people concerned about you, my friend. hang in there. the odds always change.

i know its been said before, but its true...Hang in there..i was outta work for a year and a half (seven yrs ago)...with a 6yr old and a 3yr old, and my wife working 2 jobs....things have a way of wokin themselves out they did in my case ...and they will in your case too !!

... another cliche...

What doen't kill ya, WILL make you stronger...

At one time or another, everyone has had bad times in there lives, stick it out, be strong, think FAMILY, LOVE, and POSITIVE thoughts, and most of all...

...Overcome.

Best of luck, & Peace brother.

PT 🙂

i have been through many circumstances that seem the worst at the time.....and they really are bad....but, you cannot give up hope....there is always another path waiting....even when you think there is not...

all these things are easier said than done, but they can be done.....you owe your children that much....

keep going, you never know how things may work out in your favor...you have my snailer if you need it...

for anything

delta

The best things to ever happen to me were the worst things...they have made me a little wiser, a little tougher and a lot more appreciative of things that matter most! Hang in there and don't forget to pray!


Goody

Amen Goody!
