frankly, i am tired of this boring life, go to work, go back home...i am longing to travel in another country, to be away from all these troubles: low payments, no house, no car...sometimes, i am just puzzled, why is my life so hard? i hate myself, especially when my parents were begging others to give me a good job, many times i was thinking that what i am living for? just for job or money? i had never tried by myself to live on my own, it is a pity i do know my telents, i can not show it to make myself shining, however it wlii be not last long, i am sure that somewhere in the sweeping, intricate pattern of people there is a special place where i can make my self fit.

When I was aged 19 years old I bought my little cottage in Kent and I worked as a container marketing controller in London. I was very sad to be made redundant when I was 20 years old. I hated not having a job and found all the job searching soul destroying. My home country was deeply in a recession and it seemed unlikely I would find another shipping job or any other sort of work.
I dreamed of doing some more traveling to fill up some of this time I couldn't find any work in my home country. I let out my cottage and got a working holiday visa for Australia. I bought an airline ticket around the world and it cost around one thousand pounds.
I planned a trip of around six months but ended up staying just over one year on my trip of a lifetime. I loved it in homely Australia, adored amazing Fiji and explored South East Asia with delight. When I came back home I decided to do some studying and fill in employment. I did temporary work for a bank and an insurance company. I applied to study at university and got accepted. I studied education and English Literature. I became a primary school teacher when my course ended. So I loved traveling then studying and training for a new career when I came home.
At the current time my home country is in recession. Many people are unemployed here. Good luck.

Life is so different in China, i was studying in high school when i was aged 19 years old and working hard for the college entrance examination.Fianlly, i passed the exam and went to start a new life. During the four years in my college, i enjoyed myself a lot, maybe it will be my happiest time throughut my whole life.I made many good friends, and we go shopping and travelling, play cards and study hard to get scholarship,that happy and light-hearted time will never come back, i missed them and i miss them.
Eeryone in China regard it as common that when we graduate, we lose jobs. Jobs are much easier to those who are rich or powerful. We can just work and work ...
I was longing for life like yours, you have woderful life experience and you have free time.
Good luck to you, and to me as well.

Oh that is bad that you are so unhappy. You have to stop think all that. You have some talent that you are ignoring and don't want to accept. everyone has some talent in them. I have so many. I love painting, craft work, singing and many more. I love to do these things and I am pretty good at it. I hope you will find your happiness soon. have a wonderful day.

At times life seem really boring especially when we are doing things that
we do not like. Working in the field which we are passionate will be a
totally different picture. I hope you will find something you love and
passionate about. Make it into your dream job and live life to the fullest.
However, it is good that you still have a job that pays. Do your best and
at the same time search for the thing you want in life. All the best

Years ago I didn't have a job.My father had expired.Consequently I had no money to subsist my family that consisted of eight members then.I tried my best to get a job,but in vain.I tried to start a business by taking a loan from bank,but failed.So I decided to do what I was best at.I decided to write articles for Hindi magazines.Hindi is my mother tongue.A year later I had enough money to sustain my family.In addition,I got many friends as well.After then I got a job.

Your last few words were the ones one would like to listen from an individual. Now you feel you are a dumb as you do not know what you are good at. I would like to add it here that it is something very tough to know who you are. Though we find it easy to judge others but knowing what is good in us in not as easy. You need to mirror yourself. Just keeping mind open I think will be enough. I agree you are facing some problems because of your low profile job. But remain optimistic. You will find yourself definitely at a much better situation. And yes one more thing, you know yourself best the problem you are facing has only a single solution. Talk to yourself about the same. Do what you feel right. Thank you.

Hello there! i think there really is a time in our lives that we have to go through this difficulty. I know there are those who didn't have to go to a lot of trouble just to land a job. But keep the spirit up and maintain the positive attitude. Keep your goals and never give up. In time, you will be able to get what you want.

Hello Friend !!
I see you have some questions to be answered.Its good everyone has questions even I had some like what I like to do in life and How can I make my life interesting and so on.But only thing I can say is the questions you asked are very good but you need to ask all those questions to yourself and get answers from yourself.No one else in this world can give correct answer of those questions except you.Yes its true some questions are difficult to answer and that is when you feel life is harsh or its hard to live.....BUt eventually when you get an answer it becomes easy my friend..!!
Wish you all the best and Happy Mylotting...:)
Be Happy and Make Happy :):)

now a days jobs and money making opportunities are very short. most people of the world are poor and have low income because jobs are not available. most people have no car,no job and even no house. many young man spent lonely life because they have no enuf money to get marry or get other facilities. we should make a strong plain to get ride of these crises .
