The Sun Will Indeed Shine Again – A Haibun

The Sun Will Indeed Shine Again

There have been two memorable occasions in my life where I almost fell to my knees to give thanks for a job. Both were presented to me at extremely difficult times.

In those moments I had almost given up hope for a change in my luck.  In one instance I had lost direction in an endeavor and was desperate to get back to what I knew best.  In another, my world as I knew it, had been turned upside down and the rug had been pulled from under me.

Both new opportunities were offered to me by amazing people I had never met before.  Their warmth and kindness, not knowing what had brought me there, was genuine.  I felt the gentle push of the Universe as it cleared the path for me.  I will always be thankful to those people and companies.

Sunshine surely comes
When you will least expect it 
Because it’s meant to

  1. Well that was a sincere haibun…and so interesting to read, with emotion climbing until the last, powerful line in your haiku, which gave real pause for thought — well done.

    It comes to the chosen ones. One may not expect it but one’s good deeds precede the blessings that come your way. Happy Thanksgiving Christine!.

    1. Thanks dear Bev. One company is internationally known and was a pleasure to work for. Supportive and encouraging. Always promoted from within. I loved it there. The other is locally and state known and has the same corporate culture. A pleasure working there too. Happy thanksgiving! Hope you have a lovely day/weekend☺️❤️

  4. How amazing when that happens… and getting a new opportunity must be great… I have never been in such a position… I have been with the same company for most of my life, had a small detour before coming back.

    1. It was a amazing in both instances. When a company is good to you, you always want to stay. Maybe that’s why you have been there so long ☺️
