Discouragement is an effective tool. At least against me anyway.
Losing hope is no fun. Finding it again is better.
I had my priorities all mixed up.
My Life's Priorities:
God
Husband
Children
Me
Home
Church
...and then work, way down at the bottom!
My job is simply a job. The means to an end. The means to enabling me to be home with my family more than any other job I might take on. I spent a lot of time searching out options. Ultimately, I could get another job that would even pay similar wages without the responsibilities I bear now. But the exchange would be less time at home with my family, something I'm not willing to give up.
Recognizing what my priorities are helped to change my perspective and while I'm still muddling through, I'm not as lost.
