Here it is

So, after being laid off for 3 weeks and 1 day I must say that the world has not come to an end. The sun still comes up and the moon still shines. My kids are still happy and my husband is still standing beside me (sometimes with a box of Kleenex).

I have had a few interviews and they always seem to say thank you but no thank you when they hear that I have a child with special needs. You would think I had the black plague the way some look at me. I know that this country is a fast paced, business first country but what happened to family friendly and helping others out.

It seems like there are a lot of takers and not a lot of givers and that saddens me. I am always a hard worker, put others first and often give my best, my favorite away to others to make them happy. All without expecting nothing in return.

It is sad that in today's world people can not get ahead on being a good person and working hard. It's about who you know and how many pieces of paper you have on your wall. Well some of the best, most awesome people I know have started with nothing and work hard and put others first. The only thing decorating their walls are finger paints and hand smudges.

So, to all of you who put others first, love your family and step back to help someone else out ** I applaud you!!**
