LOVE THURSDAY

We were watching the HBO movie about Temple Grandin a few weeks ago and in the film, one of her mentors told her that there was always a door. You just had to go through it. I thought of that yesterday when I noticed the door in the building outside my window at work. OK. So the door is in an odd place and I'm not sure I really want to go through that particular door. But it's there.

This hasn't been the best week for me. In fact, I left work Tuesday in tears because I just don't like my job. One day I do all the right things only to turn around and do weeks worth of wrong things. And on Tuesday I'd reached my level of frustration at my own incompetence. But I went on, taught my yoga classes and shook it off.

I went back to work with a new plan, hunkered down and actually got the project to work. I'm still not happy with my job, but I'm seeing this job as my door. I'm learning new skills to build the resume. And because I have no attachments to this job, it will be really easy to leave when the time comes.

I'll cross that threshold when I get to that door. Happy Love Thursday!
