I didn't get the job. Am I disappointed. Yes. Am I devastated?
Not at all.
I'm feeling quite resilient. Less than 20 hours after receiving my rejection email and I've already been in contact with the woman who recommended me for this job. She's expressed her thought that there are lots of jobs out there for me in the arts and we can find them (or create them ourselves). Considering this woman founded an arts organization that continues to thrive after almost twenty years in existence, I'm inclined to stick close to and learn from her.
I am feeling impatient to find more meaningful and remunerative work.
What's to come in my next essay? I've been talking in person with other ADHD folks. While I am neither inclined nor at liberty to share their stories I am happy and willing to share what my thoughts and feelings have been.
Goodnight all and if you live in the US (East and South) bundle up. It's getting very snow out there.
