The pandemic has changed my perspective on a lot of things. I've learned to never take anything for granted as you never know when life will change. I was in a fairly comfortable position before COVID-19 hit. I was in a secure and stable work placement. Not just any work, something I enjoyed and was passionate about. Unfortunately, I was placed on furlough and later made redundant. I'm now struggling to pay my rent and keep up with the bills.
I'm lucky to have a loving and supporting wife who has guided me through this period. We may not have much but at least we have each other. I love her so much. I've struggled during this period as I feel I should be providing more for her. I can not wait until all of this is over and I can treat her how she deserves.
I want to stay in the same field but train to provide myself with better job security in the future. Once I'm qualified I will be able to return to what I enjoy and get my life back on track. I feel like I finally know the way out of this situation and I'm looking forward to the journey!
