I used to think that my job made me, that it determined where I was in life. Now don't get me wrong... It's not that I was snobby or anything. I just felt that the better the job that you had at the time the better your outlook on your future was. I felt that you moved up in your career in the hopes of brighter things and new beginnings.
The thing that I have realized over the last couple of weeks is that your job doesn't make you happier or put you in a position for bigger and better things. I was always told by my mother who raised me that if you have to leave a position leave on a good note but in the past situation that seems like it isn't going to be an option.
I felt like I needed closure like I needed to know why this happened if it was something that I could change. But morally I think that I would have felt worse if I had changed who I was in the hopes of holding on to something that I really didn't want to holdon to.
I am entering a new phase in my life where I have to realize that what the world does to me doesn't matter ( that is as long as it is not causing me bodily harm). Nothing in the workplace is personal and that is what everyone in the workplace has lost sight of. I worked for a six-week program and was let go two days before the program was over. What kind of sense did that make, if anything you crippled yourself. While I could be hurt and upset and take things personal I won't because that was the effect and purpose of the whole ordeal. if anything she has given me two days of rest in a city that I am quite fond of ( for vacationing), and I am going to enjoy them.
So on a lighter note I start Medical School on Aug. 14th and I am so excited. I will be fulfilling the goals that a lifetime of dreaming has realized for me.
This is the start of a whole new beginning so I think I will make some resolutions:
1. I resolve to lose weight because the only thing I will have to do is read for school so I can do some reading on the treadmill. ( hahaha..... but I'm serious)
2. I will spend a lot more time at church because they miss me and I miss the connection that my church family helps me to achieve.
3. I will volunteer more....( haven't had time.. but I'm going to make some)
4. I will study, study, study.
Ok I'm done resolving because it is tiresome. I am removing my feelings from the equation.
More to come later though... as always.
