One of my favorite college professors tells a story that ends with, "It took a metaphoric 2x4 to the head to get the point." I feel like that right now . . .
I let myself have a bad week at work because of the words of an uninformed and disconnected administrator who tried to scare his teachers into line.
I find myself as an emotional wreck because I've had to let go of something I really wanted and really tried to make happen, but I can't make anyone else see what everyone else does.
I had to confront some feelings from the past that have been buried pretty deep . . . For a reason.
Sometimes you need a bunch of crappy things to happen all at once to just kick your ass in the right direction. Today is the day I decided that I'm going to be sad for awhile, I'm going to be frustrated, and I'm even going to be angry, but I'm going to be okay. And hopefully, sooner rather than later, I will be more than ok.
I'm choosing to feel better. It will take time, and work, but things will get better. Everything DOES happen for a reason.
