Last Thursday I went to an employment agency that specialises in disability (through the government’s Disability Employment Network), all in the hopes of getting some paid employment happening while I complete my studies. I was told that, should this agency decide not to take my case, they will then refer me to another (more suitable) agency.

Today they offered to refer me elsewhere.

Some people would be disheartened by this turn of events, but I’m far too positive a person to let this affect me. I feel that my life is very much moving forward at the moment, and this is merely further progression in the right direction.

And if it comes down to it, I’ll make my own opportunities. You don’t achieve goals in life by allowing yourself to be a victim of fate.
