sometimes i need to be reminded of that. with every step, with every move, grow.
i've been given an opportunity to process some news that really stung. it was a professional decision that makes no sense. not just to me, but to several colleagues, and family members. i don't have much more to say about it, except that i am working through the process of the news. i was hurt yesterday. i'm mad today. tomorrow, i will take another step to finishing the process.
until then, take a look at this fabulous happy snap of the 4 of us at Niagra Falls on Thanksgiving Day.
talk about giving me the moment i needed today. thanks, dad for the photo. :)
**** edited to add: it just dawned on me, given the fragile economy, and the underlying feeling of my post, that i may have actually lost my job. in fact, that is not true - thankfully, i am still gainfully employed. i was however, passed over for a promotion that was something i had looked forward to achieving. and had been working on for a while now.

What a lovely picture! :)
I admire your ability to frame the situation you write about, as an opportunity to grow, although I'm sorry it's also accompanied by the other emotions you are experiencing. I suppose I can guess what has happened, but in any event, I'll be sending good thoughts your way. Hugs to you, my friend...
Hi Nat! so good to see you here ... :) I just edited this post, thanks for helping me see that I may have led people to believe something *else* had happened. {phew} that it hadn't.
Whew! I'm glad you added that bit at the end. While I'm glad you still have a job, I'm sorry you didn't get the promotion that I'm *sure* you deserve. {{HUGS}}
