Yeah, I lost my 2nd job this year after doing heaps of overtime, etc, and lots of my pay was withheld! (just let them have it - it's not worth kicking up a stink over) Times are now really tough and my sons birthday is coming up. Still can't find another job, and yet there is so much to be thankful for! I know what you mean! :)

I hear ya. Yes 2008 has been hard. I found it hard to get a job and bills kept on coming in I cannot afford to pay. But Praise God I have food in my stomach and a roof over my head and most importantly Jesus in my life. so I lack nothing

For me 1008 has been pretty good. But then again I see the glass as half full while some people would see the glass as half empty, I have had my share of heart ache, but I do trust in God and He see's me through.

My 2008 was like the rest of my life. I planned ahead when I was young and have invested wisely. (not in the stock market) and have lived a life without any fears for 40 years. Just like David of Old was taught to put things up for a rainy day. That is God's plan for us and when we do his plan, we attain happiness, peace. "Man is that he may have joy." I surely have found Joy in my life.

i have found love, but rejected. No job. good amount of money. And oddly enough it made me also a more spiritual person, how weird...

Funny how or your bad luck has coincided with your need to fantasise about a deity, why not get some kind of job or life?

See, not all difficult situations make one feel impoverished^^

The power of self-delusion in action.....
