Hello spring – nice of you to join us

I had my morning coffee outside for the first time this year. I love the feel of the morning spring air on my skin, and in my lungs. The smell of the earth around me. Warm, aromatic mug of coffee in my hands. I breathe it all it and thank our creator. The natural world is a marvel and I love to lose myself in it in stolen moments like this.

I just got a compliment at work. I heard it second hand. It was surprising to me. Why? Because I am one of the least confident people you will ever meet. At least when it comes to my job. Always have been. We have had a steady exodus from this company over the course of the past few months. My small department has lost 3, hired 1. And I am supposed to be leaving next month. A few people were talking and saying that I should stay. That I am “good at that stuff”. I honestly thought the person who said that had lost faith in me. I am hard on myself.

Peace OD friends.
