"Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." ~ Confucius
I went back to work today. I am somewhat miserable about it but I think it is because it means that summer is soon over. Soon the leaves will turn, the geese fill the sky, and rush hour traffic will return. Shorts and sleeveless tops will be put away. Pedicures won't be need under thick socks. Salads will turn to soups at lunch time.
Work provided an opportunity to catch up with people. It was not a particularly productive day but some inroads were made and I started on the right foot with people. I want to have a good year. I even went out for a walk at lunch which was great. Next week, more people will be in and the following week we are back into the thick of things. I am holding the Confucius quote lightly and hoping that with four years left before collecting a decent pension I might be able to love my job enough to stay and still do work that is inspiring and a blessing to me and others.
Peace,
Suzanne
