Wisdom

Last Friday was quite bittersweet! It was my last day at my previous job. I won't miss the work but I sure will miss the people. Oh the stories, can't believe it's been almost 5 years there. Now to look forward to another job that I hope will give me 5+ years. Fingers crossed.

And of course I had to do some celebrating w/some good friends. Idk, the dynamic of my relationships have changed a lot in the last year. I had a very enlightening conversation w/a friend and it had my gears turning ever since. Perhaps what she was saying were valid points I've been avoiding. I am still learning, still shedding, and hoping to become a better me. This change is for me, but it is also for the important individuals around me. And hopefully it will lead me to meet new people and find new relationships. My friend told me she has different groups of friends that serve different purposes. That is how she keeps her relationships healthy by not relying on just one group of people. To not put all your chips in one pot. Lol I forgot the saying but yea...u get it.

In my life, for most of my grown up years...surviving is not the most difficult task for me. I would have to be true to myself and say friendships and maintaining them is my number one challenge. Perhaps it will always be that way and I will never figure it out. Who knows. Whatever the case, I am learning how to cope...to be patient...and to be at peace. And also forgiveness. Yes, forgiveness in others and forgiveness for myself.
