How I Learned How To Go From Tears To Peace
I’m in an interesting space today. Without getting into all the details, I wanted to share how I have learned how to process things.
Last night, I was faced with a challenging conversation at my day job. Came out of the blue and took me off guard. I have to put in a disclaimer right now and that is I don’t feel comfortable talking about myself and my personal journey. I’m a private person now moving into the public eye.
Yet, I realize that many of us face similar situations and there are two paths we can go down —and we get to choose which one!
Let me repeat that last line — We get to choose.
Life is going to happen- people, situations, events — we have no control. Where we do have control is over ourselves and how we react!
I once heard, and I cannot remember from what brilliant person, the quote:
God please lift the veil so that I can see circumstances for what they truly are…
I love that quote and it’s something I say every morning.
As I move back into last night, thoughts ran through my head, victim thoughts, thoughts of how this was unfair. And maybe it was, considering all that I offer to the company and how proud I am to work there.
