I can relate so much to your post, as after getting laid off after 29.5 years I felt the same way. BUT, then so many fine folks on here helped me feel better and I know 100% that you are a kind, caring and worthwhile soul.
The weekend is upon us and take time to relax let the warm sunshine on you and bask in the knowledge that I care about you a lot, want the best for you and you are a good friend with so much to give and get from this site and life.
I send you lots of love, caring and huge hugs, as you are never alone, and you are a shining star.
