I wrote this around 10 this morning:
When the world is
bathed in sunshine
how does the darkness
penetrate?
I'm sitting outside Starbucks, drinking my latte, listening to cars speed by and watching the birds jump around at my feet. I'm thinking about tomorrow. I don't often permit myself this luxury too often any more. In the last several months I have trained myself not to look beyond the day, hour, minute. Too often we don't live in the moment and I've been trying to get back to that. I was taught around the time I turned 30 how to truly live in a moment. It's a powerful ability to have and unfortunately not many people have it or at least dont utilize it. But I digress. Today I'm thinking about tomorrow. The potential I am rediscovering within myself. The strength I once had that moved me through the White House Correspondence Dinner cocktail parties, luncheons with powerful politicians, drinks with some of the post influential people in this country, is flowing through my veins today. For almost a year now I have not been living the life Ive been working toward. But that doesn't mean I can't get back on the right path and walk toward my future. Today, tomorrow is lookin good!
***************************************************
When I got home around noonish there was a message on my phone from a potential employer!! I guess I do have well connected friends. And not just any job, but a job that will periodically take me back to DC. It pays to wait for the right fit to present itself. Im trying not to get my hopes up, but damn its hard not to. Hopefully by this time next week Ill know for sure!!!!
Isnt it funny, I felt something this morning sitting at Starbucks. Yeah, its been a damn good day. Up until the dog diedbut thats a story for another day
