the thing is, I think we *all* feel like the damaged, crippled person. we just have to figure out what it is that makes us tick and go after that. this is a wonderful (and scary) opportunity for you to change directions and do whatever the hell you want. you're amazing. don't forget that.

Hard to remember, and tough to accept

I know that it's hard to remember and sometimes tough to accept, and I'm hoping that you will try:

Getting fired doesn't mark you as a failure.

Changing jobs isn't a sign of failure, it's a sign of change.

I'm thinking good thoughts for you, and I don't need to know what kind of job you have or how you spend your time to KNOW that you are a quality person.

I have always felt close to you as a person (obviously) even it it has not always translated to being close to you in actual interaction. This post makes my heart ache with emotions that I know well and live uncomfortably with every day. The jobless thing too, I was there at the beginning of this year when i got let go. I've never had a job situation impact my mental state to that degree. I thought I was worthless and my life had been a waste of time. I love you Emi! You're brilliant, you will get there.
