We don't always have the courage to tell the truth about our situations. I do believe that we have all been there at one time or another. Repossession it happens to a lot of people, most won't admit it, they give you lies like oh my car is in the shop "Yeah right for 3 months?" or they tell you about that fake accident that totaled their car, but the next night they went out the club and was bouncing off the walls and shit. Again yeah right, we all have issues that arise and we don't always know what to do but truth is truth, is double truth. Repossession, been there done that, foreclosure been there done that. I wouldn't say I was there alone but at the time when it happen I sure did feel alone. The bigger issue in my eyes is when it happens to you, that you take the time to explore the reasons why it happen in the first place. Were you over extended? Had you just moved to a new area and didn't have enough put away. Living check to check has been a way of life for me and I even did those nasty "payday loans" on more than one occasion. That was not fun, but take the time to look at how it happen, and make some changes even if small in your life so that the same thing does not have to happen again. Or at least you change the cycle... Negative bank accounts been there done that, although since I took a good look at myself, it has not happen for over 2 years now, I could claim that as just my savy book keeping but the truth is I did it because I cared enough about myself to stop the madness of living check to check and turning every extra dime into extra for me and mine. cheer up, I know your past this but keep moving forward and the rest will follow :-) Jayson .-= Jayson´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.jaysonflint.com/index.php/2010/02/01/social-media-could-be-social-crap-if-you-dont-research/" rel="nofollow">Social Media could be Social Crap if you don’t research</a> =-.
