It’s fall again. Time to cross the big road.
Today I did lots of manual labor, and I’ve either damaged my lower back or I’m growing crazy strong muscles back there.
My coworker got canned today. Apparently he was gonna quit anyhow. I sorta knew it was coming, but for some reason I feel sad about it. Like I don’t want him to feel bad. But alas, I can’t make him feel better for the following reasons: a) because it’s impossible to do and b) because I can’t go around making sure that everyone is happy… this is what I am trying to stop!!! I can accept pain myself and treat it as a fact of life and an opportunity for growth. Why can’t I feel the same for others? I release this situation for the world to handle… Ah! And there I am! Refreshed, and I’m sure a tad closer to enlightenment or something 😉
Well scheize! I was gonna post those pics from the other day, but Jeff has my usb thingy. Argh. I guess it’s just not meant to be.
I’ll leave you with this…
“Work is love made visable. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.” -Kahlil Gibran
