Lost everything, time for a walk

I will try to keep the negative parts of this post short.  3 months ago I was a happy and positive person.  Since then, my ex left me and is taking the 3 boys, I lost an excellent job as a Healthcare Analyst, burned through all of my savings, and am about to find myself homeless.  I have applied to dozens of jobs, but have been turned down for reasons ranging from having no college education to having made too much money at my lost job.  I have sold or am in the process of selling everything I own (even my coffee maker..  that was a tough one).

Over the years I have lost touch with the things that brought me joy.  I allowed work to consume me, to the detriment of my health and family.  I let distractions take over as things started to fall apart, and sat back as my physical and mental health deteriorated.  These things were my fault – I made the choices that led to this position.

 

I am not looking for pity – like many others, I did this to myself.  What I am looking for is a helping hand to lift myself back up.  I am determined to turn this trial into something that will have a positive impact on my life.

 

I have made a choice to begin walking the Appalachian Trail instead of living in my car or in a shelter.  I want to let go of the distractions, and to use the time on the trail to figure out what kind of person I want to be.  I would like to begin writing again, reconnect with God, and maybe by the end have a better understanding of my place in life.

 

I am here because I am still in need of supplies for my journey, and will run out of money long before the trail is over.  If I need to leave the trail and go to a shelter, I will.  I am not going to risk my life more than any other person on the trail, but I have an opportunity to try to do something that so few people have a chance to do – and that in and of itself is a blessing.

 

Thank you all for reading, and God bless.  If you would like to help, my PayPal is paypal.me/fatmanwalking
