i bask in God's Grace and generosity every day.
for the many times when i feel like throwing a fit because there are those people who drive me crazy and mad, i am reminded that i need to have forbearance, patience and yes, maturity. as boss, i have work to delegate, deliverables to complete, people to lead and inspire.
for the many times when i come across people whose primary business is to make others miserable, i am thankful that i am not like them; that i am given the chance to see how detrimental they are thus i should avoid being associated with them. with the kind of work that i do, i meet different sorts of people, and as much as possible, i learn from them.
for the many times when things do not make sense, when trouble seems to be brewing, which i am not prepared for, when days seem to be sour, gloomy, sad and tiring, i am reminded how even the most difficult times will pass, that it is still good to be alive, no matter the circumstances.
but it is not every day that i feel so positive and joyful. i get tired too. i do get lonely. i feel down. in the grand scheme of things, i need to be comforted. i need to feel that i am allowed to be weak. i need to take things slow. i need to be selfish and find more time for my lazy, stubborn, clingy self.
as i write this, i am amused with how assorted my feelings are. i feel so validated that i am a "feeling" normal person. i embrace my human-ness. it assures me that power and influence have not eaten me up. at the end of the day, there is Hope, and there is Faith that i can draw strength from. (and there are past experiences -- i get back to recalling my SSEAYP moments so i turn giddy and excited about life again.)
