OK... at the risk of beating this craggy old horse to death, a friend shared with me a verse that I thought was worth posting over here:
the good kind of friend not only encourages you to grow and inspires you to grow ~ the good kind of friend makes you believe you can grow.
Yeah. I think there's a lot to that.
In other news, the work news last night wasn't good at all. But it's also what I suspected and yes, I'm most definitely impacted, it's just not *entirely* clear exactly how much yet. So guess who is updating the old resume today...
I am sure there are positives and opportunities in the situation. Just might take me a few days to clearly identify them... but I'll trust they're there.
