Obedience conditioning in the guise of education.
I wasn’t going to write this post. I’ve always been very private with some aspects of my life. I have never talked bad about my place of employment and will continue to honor that....Even as Wednesday is my last day after 18 years in management for an organization!! Yep, you read right, I turned in my resignation 2 weeks ago and it feels sooooo Good! I could’ve titled this post “The Happiest Day of My Life,” but I’ll refrain a tad as of course there have been many happier days but guys, I’M FREAKIN EXCITED! However, ever since my excitement over leaving my job, a dark cloud arose along with a heavy sadness in my heart because I saw people’s true colors. Yes, the majority I told or found out we’re so sweet and congratulatory, and I know had nothing but well wishes and good in their hearts. These are the tried and true, that as our colleague population grew to 2,000, they were the ones who'd been there forever and had nothing but well wishes. However, there were a few that broke my heart or lack of heart I might say. Are you ready for this? I literally had one colleague who called me a loser for leaving the organization. Hello? If it makes me a loser for wanting to be happy in life then I will wear the biggest "L" on my forehead I can find! My sweet friend Kellyann found this last week on here calendar and it really resonated with me too. LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE!! People thought Oh she's resigning to blog more. Well, no, I already blog full time and yes, while I wish I knew how to make really good money and not just a little spending money from it, I'll admit I don't know how, so it'll stay a hobby and fun way to socialize with cool peeps such as yourselves. Like I said, I am a very private person so I decided not to divulge what I am doing in the next chapter. I know that helping people, not hurting them is in my DNA so I will be trying to spread smiles and make hearts happy. And I can tell you this Queenism came to life.... My dear friend and blogger Sierra from Beautifully Candid recently wrote a letter to herself entitled Dear Me. I’m going to quote some of the things she said because the words are so fitting for me with what is happening at this time in my life. She says “You were always taught to be kind and show love even when others don't. Some people have a hard time with seeing others happy—that's their fault, not yours. Let it go. Pray for them, and continue to invest your time in those that value your friendship, because you know those that are truly by your side have and always will be there for you.” Why oh why do people not rejoice when others are happy? I get plum giddy when a loved one or friend has something awesome happen in their lives. I truly am a person who gets excited about the little things in life. Sierra goes on to say “It's ok to get excited. There is nothing wrong with celebrating the small things. If you want to throw a breakfast party for no other reason than it being a Saturday, do it.” And then this bit of advice truly hit home “Let go of what others think. Don't hold back on sharing things if it's something that makes you happy. The sad part about putting yourself out there is others who can't relate tend to think you are doing things for show, even if you've always been that way but you just share more of it now. Keep doing what makes you happy.” Here I was in a job that was never even meant to be my career, how did 18 years go by of NOT doing what I wanted to do? It was not what I went to school for, never in my dreams, it just came along at a time it was needed and that was a good thing...just a lil too long and when the happiness faded....I needed to too! Below are some pictures of work in happier times, when I was on a social committee and we had a budget to throw awesome parties for our colleges. This was my favorite Holiday Tea where we coordinated aqua, silver and white, had amazing appetizers and gave away over 200 raffle prizes. Yep, you'll see my mama in this picture too, also on the committee..great group! and my first awards banquet...2001 The Devil is the thief of joy. He manifests himself in your surroundings, never, ever let him. Be grateful for the gifts God has given you and embrace each day as a treasure! Emily Bronte is a favorite author of mine and I think her quote rings true. As time moves on, life grows sweeter. Thank you for letting me vent. I am not going to let the untrue bring down my excitement for this new chapter in my life. And I have to give a BIG shout out to my man for working hard so I could banish my stress and live out my dreams. See, I wasn't going to write it because I was going to let it just be another chapter, one ending and one beginning in my book of life but after reading 13 Signs It's Time to Quit Your Job, and seeing what transpired because I just wanted to be happy, I decided I needed, wanted to tell a little about this point in my life because most of you get it! And I adore you for understanding. Be Back tomorrow for Tasty Tuesday with a scrumptious comfort food dish sure to please the masses...I think!
