7. But He Still Had Friends and Family
He was basically in the state of panic for the last several hours. He would still be in a difficult situation for the next several days. But in this situation, he would learn that he did have friends that he could count on. His premise was that words such as ‘Friend’ and ‘Family’ did not mean much, but he’d learn that they did. This sounded cliché but it was indeed a fact. He would also learn that he was still not independent enough, nor was he strong enough. He needed friends and family to move forward; this was more like an affirmation rather than revelation though.

The day after he borrowed money from the restaurant owner, he made phone calls and emails; he requested his friends and family members to lend him money in order to get by for the next couple of weeks. Two friends he contacted got back to him immediately and told him that they’d wire emergency funds to his bank account. He also spoke with his mother and she told him that she’d lend him some money. Though he had to pay back a fair amount to them in the coming months, he was greatly relieved. The worst was over.
Within a week, he received money from his friends and family. Taking that, he went back to the restaurant and paid back what he owed. The following week, he finally got in touch with his new employer and received the relocation fee. Though he needed to pay back all in the coming months, the situation was looking better and better every passing day.
