This morning after I arrived at work, I felt this overwhelming urge to leave. I felt like my job was too much, that I wasn't being appreciated, that things weren't changing even with all the effort I was putting in.
The way I was feeling was quite opposite of the way I've been wanting to feel. In my quest for happiness, and being love I have been taking teeny tiny steps. After today I realize they are working.
I could have let the feeling I had this morning take over, and been grumpy all day, but I didn't. I once again chose to let it go. Good thing I did. Shortly after my "moment", I had a friend go into emotional turmoil. She was falling apart right in front of me. Previously I would have felt helpless, I never knew what to say or do in somewhat uncomfortable situations. Today I knew what to do. I hugged her, and I don't mean a tiny little squeeze. I actually held her for a moment as the tears were streaming down her face. I then reminded her that she was one of the sweetest, most loving , amazing people I knew.
I told her that she needed to stop worrying about what others had to say about her. I told her that it's the ones who love you that count and she had the choice to keep feeling miserable, or let it go.
I'm not sure if she got it at that point, but I knew I had done my part. I knew I had at least planted the seed.
I am so thankful that I am on this journey. I am slowly figuring it out and I love love love it.
Take care of you!
With Love,
Dana
