Managing the ups and downs of life

I hope you are all well.

I am trying to recover from Dental Implant surgery and feeling generally tired.

Having to accept the past and still trying to find an opportunity to requalify but told today, as I live in the East Midlands, I will struggle to find a role. I have decided to join my Mother overseas to observe Ramadhan and begin the job search until I leave and recommence once again when I return . It is hard to continually try and to be told the legal job market is saturated with law graduates and at 53 I am trying to find an entry level role at the lowest possible salary. Also, I am under pressure to sell my rental home in order to move to a home but how can I until I find a chance to requalify ?

I honestly realise health is our greatest wealth and without it , how can we function.

So I will most probably continue to try and ideally if I could find a training opportunity commutable to my home, this would remove the worry of having to take a tenancy and being worried I may be sacked mid way as this has happened to me in the past.

Hi Roukaya,

It sounds like you have a lot of decisions to think about. I do agree, as we get older, our own health is very important. That would be exciting for you, if you found a training opportunity/job near where you live. Self-care and a day at a time. Take care.
