I was fired from my job very abruptlyand without any explanation. My manager just told me they don't need me anymore and asked to return my laptop. I felt betrayed and angry, and I wanted time to finish my projects. At the same time, I wondered how they would survive without me and anyone doing marketing. It just didn't make any sense. I told several people that I was fired in this rude way, and I was laughing at this stupidity of the situation. I even shared it with complete strangers. I think I was also relieved because I didn't want to work there anyway. Then I found a video of myself as a child performing with my dance studio. I was surprised because it looked so sharp and vivid, not like an old video tape and I have never seen it before. I was amazed at how good I was as a dancer, confident, beautiful, fearless. I wondered what happened to that girl and why I am not like that anymore. I showed that video to several people and even the manager who fired me.
