In this time of economic distress many are getting laid-off, accepting buyouts, getting fired or just jumping ship. Beliefnet wants our users to share the story of how their getting laid-off, bought out or leaving their job has changed their lives for the better.

It's our hope to share your story with our larger audience and enourage someone to believe that there are inspiring stores behind what many believe is a tragic situation.

Thanks in advance for having the courage to share. :)
