Have you ever gone through a difficult situation such as losing a job?

 Wave after wave

Waves of panic
Waves of shock
Waves of disbelief

Waves of denial
Waves of shame
Waves of fear

Wave after wave

Waves churning deep within
Waves washing away a comfortable identity drawn in sand

Waves destroying all known structures
within and without

Wave after wave
bringing a storm of grief and tears

Waves that shift direction and content

Waves of hope emerge

Rainbows appear on the horizon

Maybe a new beginning is good!
Maybe a new identity is better!
Maybe …

Your metaphor of waves is perfect. It describes exactly what happens to those that are blindsided by cruel reality not of their own making. Whether they come out from under the deep water can be a matter of luck or of determination. Some are able to bring their heads above water and some are not. Are we to look down upon those who have failed? I think not. We should all be compassionate enough to find a way to help them at least be comfortable.

I don't know if you have gone through it. But I know the trauma of my husband who survived it. Everything that we built for 20 years were taken away. He was cheated and we had to begin from zero without loosing hope. That too we were in a foreign country. That is how it happened.We just let it pass and built it all over one after the other. It is like n accident when it happens , you have to pick up from there that is if you are able to walk.....-roseline
