I needed another picture to remind me that warmer days are ahead.  I have had such an emotionally taxing day and it isn’t even over yet.    I cannot believe how immature and childish some people can be.  What makes it worse and much more frustrating is when these afore mentioned people are older than me.  I have always been taught to respect my elders but it is so hard when to respect grown men who act like children.  I have expended way too much energy over things that are beyond my control.  I don’t want to be cryptic so I will just say it, I have been having some issues related to work and I thought they had all been resolved.  I even let myself feel good about it and it felt like a hundred pounds had been lifted off of my back, but of course that didn’t last long.  I have a bad habit of celebrating prematurely and that is why I normally can contain myself but I was just so relived today that I couldn’t help myself.  Of course as of the time of this writing my happiness and relief have come crashing down.  Karma has paid me back for becoming slightly prideful, and the weight has settled right back into its old position on my shoulders but that’s okay because I have been handling this long I can handle it a bit longer.  I have had enough of the whining and disrespect I only have one lie and I have wasted enough of my time on this.  Whatever happens, happens, I have nothing to regret, I said what I needed to say and my grievances were aired.  I will not walk into work everyday in fear of retribution because I fought for what I believe in and I will take whatever consequence comes from me standing up for myself.  Sometimes the truth hurts and when immature people are confronted with it they automatically turn it into a fight and make themselves the victims, the only things these people are victims of are their own egotistical delusions.  It feels good to know that I have the ability to truly stand up for what I believe in.  I can’t tell you how many times stand up for myself, in my head, I have never until today actually stuck to my guns without fear, and even if I didn’t win I made my point and that makes me smile.  I am not wasting anymore of my limited resources on things that are out of my control.  I am going to go to work, do my job the way I always do, and that will continue until my pictures or my words can support my family then I will never ever have to be afraid to go to work, ever………..PEACE!!!!!
