ONE

In less than one week, I will cease being a business owner.

In less than one week, I will be unemployed for the first time in 27 years.

When this all happened, I immediately applied for a job. A job I think is my dream job. A job I know I will be good at.

I still haven't heard whether I got that job.

Last week, a new friend told me it was OK not to have all the answers. She advised I just sit with it for a while -- own it. I felt a weight lift off my shoulders -- as someone gave me permission to not know where I was going from here.

So, here I go -- sitting with it for a while.
