Human – Spirit

Rev. Mary Beth Speer spoke Sunday. She covered a lot of points around “Who do you think you are?” Recently my company mostly finished a three year project closing four plants, including the one in Aurora where I work, and moved them to Tennessee. Choosing not to move, I chose to upend my career life. I know I am not my career, but as Rev. Mary Beth pointed out, you cannot help but react / respond to life events. While we know the Truth of who we are (spiritual being), we do not always go directly to that path. I am okay with that actually. I am here to have a human experience. I have a kernel of joy that stays lit, but I will also accept those ups and downs emotionally that come with “human”.

I had a year’s notice to do my grieving for a position I have been in for nearly 17 years. Grief is not a straight line either. There were changes over the years, title, duties, a few people. Still, those changes were gradual, one at a time. This change, even knowing it was coming, is exciting, scary and way out of my comfort zone. As Rev. Mary Beth noted, that question goes through our minds: “Who do you think you are?” Do I really know enough to take it to a different company? Does my knowledge “translate”? Will I be able to “belong” somewhere else? Well, I will find out. I am stepping into a new job next week. Same title, very different product, different software, people, and location. On the upside, I can take that kernel of joy and I can take the Truth of my spiritual being with me anywhere. I have that choice and the power to create what I want (as soon as I figure that part out anyway!) Love to everyone on the human experience with me.
