Titles do not define a person’s worth
As children, we are asked “what do you want to be when you grow up? This is the million dollar question, or so we are taught to believe. For me, I grew up thinking that I knew what I wanted to be. For along time, I knew I wanted to be a lawyer. However, as…

Need to change and disagree with my brain.
Today I’m feeling pretty shitty and I don’t even believe that I did anything wrong. I delegated a project and it felt as though me doing so, was taken negatively. I’m not convinced that it was even taken negatively, but I just can’t shake the feeling. The whole conversation seemed off. I have been working…

Feelings, what a B*tch
This morning, as I was driving away from my house, I realized that in exactly one month from now, I will have left my spouse and daughter for a year. It hadn’t hit me until recently but now, every time I am alone, I just want to bawl like a baby. People have asked me,…

Move on; Changing the Story
Time to move on, you aren’t in the same situation anymore, you are supposed to be in a better place. This is what I hear in my head when things go bad. This is the story I tell myself. I tell myself that I shouldn’t be living in the past, in the hurt and shame…

Seeing life in a new way
This morning, on the way to school to drop my 9 y/o daughter, I was reminded that there is always a bright side. You see, in a few months, I am about to embark on an extended year long work trip. This will be the longest I have ever been gone from her and she…

Moving Forward With Reflection A few years ago, actually many more than just a few years ago; more like over five years ago. I had attempted to begin a blog and it didn’t really go anywhere. So, I have now decided to get back into this. For me this will be a publicly anonymous diary,…
