Transitions....

[poltr1]

2009 will be a year of transition for me. I'm starting a new life in a new city, with a new job. I don't have a history in either of those places. One of the men in my I-Group said that this would be a golden opportunity to leave behind the old Jim and develop the new Jim.

I couldn't agree more! Not the old Jim was bad - there are MANY positive attributes that can be carried over - but to develop something new and full of potential? PRICELESS!!!!

Amen. :)

Good luck with it. And yes, it can be good to have a physical mark to start anew.

I'm So Happy For You

Jim,

I'm sorry i've been away from LJ and WMI for so long that I missed when you got your job and moved. Congratulations!!!

This several jobs thing and migraines keeps me busy and it seems uninformed.

By several jobs, I mean of course, babysitting, crisis counceling, aid to my elderly mother, and of course tribal shaman. Yup, I busy. I ended up having to do all of our holiday stuff by myself as mom was further under the weather than I was.

Still I wish I had been paying better attention to LJ and had been able to crow for you at the moment you got hired.

There is great truth in allowing a new place and new situation be a great way to start building an improved version of yourself. I've done it, and often suggest it to others. I'll remind you that at first the new you will have to be someone that you have to remind yourself to be. At first it's kinda like a drunk reminding himself to choose to not take a drink. But eventually you won't have to choose to be a happier person you just will be.

Energies and hope are yours my friend.
