When I walk out of the door of my current place of employment tomorrow at 3:30pm, it will mark the end of a chapter in my life that has been full of joy, frustration, sorry, anger and regret. My time there has been a growing experience. Especially over the past three months. During that time I found myself dealing with a lot of challenges, both personally and professionally. But it will all be worth it as I venture into a new opportunity. A brave new world is at hand.
Today as I look over the events that transpired over the past few months, I am finally gaining a sense of clarity, the breakup, the demotion, it all happened for a reason. These events conspired to set me up for the new opportunity that awaits me on Thursday. While I was going through it, I couldn't see that it was happening for a reason. I kept asking myself and God "Why is this happening? This isn't fair!" I was clinging to what I thought was best for me. A lesson that I should have learned by now, but my ego tends to get in the way and I "think" I know what is best for me. Of course, experience has yet again proven this to be a false notion. I suppose I would like to believe I will learn from this,chances are I'll still be kicking and screaming the next time. Although, I might be more willing to accept things as they unfold, but I'm sure I'll always fight the process to some degree...
What I have learned from all of this is that if I have just an ounce of willingness, ask for help when I'm struggling and reach out to help others, I will always come out the other side better for whatever struggle I might encounter. I'm so excited about what the future holds in store. Here's to the next adventure!
