I have a very strange feeling of peace that's recently settled over me. Sometime Tuesday, I must have turned the corner again. I wasn't nervous for my presentation, I wasn't nervous for the always-harrowing drive downtown, and I just knew things would work out. Either my mind has completely shut down and is trying to protect me from the stress of this job…or maybe…just maybe, I'm adjusting. My shoulders feel lighter, my outlook seems brighter, and I just don't feel the same impending doom I've been experiencing since New Years. It was a very stressful six weeks, among the most stressful of my entire professional career and perhaps I've subconsciously realized that I made it.I've made it out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire.
And good catch, that's from Psalm 40. I don't know all the Psalms to be able to quote them like that. But Psalm 40 is also a U2 song! If anyone out there in the blogosphere has been praying for me, THANK YOU. The peace I feel right now is palpable and it enables me to faithfully face anything coming toward me in my future.
I see a light at the end of the tunnel. The light is getting brighter. I feel like I just might survive this year. I just hope the "light" isn't a steaming locomotive headed through the tunnel, barreling towards me!
