Humbled

   Sun, May 4, 2008 - 10:24 PM
A week ago, I was told I had a new seat at work. I was pissed and calmly tried to get a reason from the powers that be. "How dare they move me!" Hindisght is 20/20...now, it wasn't a week ago. I had developed a chip on my shoulder and bought into the drama around me. Believe me there is quite of drama, driven by ego, around work. Outside i could tune it all out, but being inside, I got a little lost. I have tried not to suck up the energy of my environment, but as i develop along my path I catch myself sliding a bit. My humble, solitary outlook got murky from my surroundings.

I can see the forest for the trees now, looking back at the past week. I was moved from a very drama, loud energy filled room to one of quiet, where I could do what I'm supposed to during the hours before lunch. The evenings I am back where i was before to cover the other part of my job. One of the people I am seated by has shown me a few new things in just the last week. I look at all the positive things from being moved and brought back down off my pedestal. It wasn't a slap in the face (like I had taken it ) but a needed change to help me strengthen my skills. Funny how some things are for the better, once we get over ourselves.
