Maybe if we keep posting positive messages, it may bring some balance back into the forums. Won't hurt to try!

I like it! We take things for granted sometimes. At one time, my sister and I were not close. We hardly ever talked. When we both lost our jobs at the plant, we started calling one another to discuss things that needed to be done to prepare for school.

When people speak about us losing our jobs being so bad, I tell them I have a sister now. We speak several times a week. We are in Phi Theta Kappa together. This weekend we are going to help out with Habitat for Humanity in building a house for someone.

I know that being laid off was a bad thing, but so many good things have come from it. I welcome the experience.wine

Agreed. Oftentimes we can easily overlook the good because of the bad that's been happening. But such as your situation, good came out of something bad. While it is sad that you were laid off, I'm glad you had the opportunity to make amends with your sister. hug

I believe there's a reason for everything.

I know I've probably stepped on some nerves myself but I mean no one any harm.Sometimes my fingers jump way ahead of my brain sometimes.LOL!!

I feel that all the negativity that's displayed here takes away from the reason that we're actually all here.
