It's cooooold outside! BRRRR! The day's been alright, so far. My co-worker is a lot of fun and we can talk like the mature women that we are...hahahah...not that we are sooo mature, but there are no games or the need to hide true feelings. I like it when I can share freely with someone. I have been reading a book about how to deal with the stressed out people in your life. In particular, the case I'm reading about is where a woman changed jobs about a long time. She wanted to start fresh in another place and also not make the same mistakes she'd made in other jobs. I could definately relate to that! I have grown so much in this job, It's almost been worth the pain! This year, I would like to have more balance in my lief. so I won't grab for the food when I'm feeling anxious, depressed, sad or bored. Balance in eating, sleeping, relaxing, playing, praying, thinking...overall balance. On the floor in my bedroom lies a stack of various books from the library. My sould wants to change and grow, but my flesh is weak and unwilling to move at times. A lot of books on retiring or hainvg a good second part of my life. Books on living a more authentic life--without so much STUFF--with more of what matters. That what matters to me and not the ideas I got from parents, peers, or children. I need to find myself again.

I so resonate with what you just wrote; wanting to change, and grow. I am a reader too, and have stacks of books and magazines (I subscribe to 5, and three newsletters) by my bed. The only way to live your dream is to take slow, sure steps in that direction, always keeping the end goal in mind. Visualize it, talk to people who are doing what you want to do. I'm behing you 110%! One caveat - never quit a job until you have another one lined up - it's easier to get that job if you're still employed!! I know about workplace stress - I had a horrific experience in a govt. job - my last one! Keep your eyes on that dream, girl!!
