Hump day . . . another weak day.

I know it’s the middle of the week, halfway to the weekend, but what a name to give the day. I rustles up other connotations . . . some not so bad.

Today was like other days. Get up, go to work and make it through the day; go home hopefully to relax a bit before going off to bed. Then do it all over again tomorrow.

I need to chill a bit. By this I mean I need to let go of the negative and bring in the positive. I have had my ups and downs when it comes to attitude but in the past year I’ve let myself be dragged down to an unpleasant state of mind. I don’t like it at all. I do know what’s causing it, however.

Have you ever felt like a piece of rope in a tug-of-war? I do. It’s rather unfair to be put in that position but that’s what’s happened to me. The sad part is I’ve let it. When you have two people with strong personalities on the job and you’ve either reported to or currently report to them it’s very hard. Now I get along with both of them but they don’t get along very well with each other. Both are descent people. Both can be good leaders. Both can be dictatorish. Only one of them has much, much better people skills . . . or at least that’s my opinion.

So what have I learned?

I can only control myself. I’m in charge of how I react to my surroundings. If other people get to me, yes it’s a bitch or is it they’re a bitch (kind of the same thing, don’t you think?), but how I choose to think or feel about it is up to me.

I need to be positive to attract the positive . . . something I’ve let slide in the past year.

Life’s a bitch and then you . . . well you know how it goes.

So remember--- life’s a lesson, it’s all about love!
