A time comes in your life when you finally get…when, in the midst of all your fears and insanity, you stop dead in your tracks and somewhere the voice inside your head cries out…ENOUGH1 Enough fighting and crying and blaming and struggling to hold on. Then, like a child quieting down after a tantrum, you blink back your tears and begin to look at the world through new eyes.
This is your awakening…..

What’s on my iPod (iPhone), Part 1
If you’re anything like me, your digital music library far outweighs the storage capacity available on almost any current portable music device. So there’s no option other than to keep changing and refreshing the music you carry around with you, as you get bored with it.
My situation is made worse by only having an 8GB iPhone 3G as my portable device. :-( So I change the music on my iPhone pretty regularly. My musical tastes are quite broad, so some of my “iPhone Collections” can get pretty interesting.
Because of this, I’ve decided to start a list of my collections. Each time I change-out the music on my iPhone, I’ll update my blog with a new list of “Whats on my iPhone”. Sometimes you’ll notice a clear trend in my musical choices, either based on my mood, a genre, or a period in time. Often I’ll throw in 1 or 2 new albums or artists that I’ve never heard before.
On to the first list…
Work, the positive side.
Last week, work was crazy; one tech away on leave & emergencies everywhere! It was just too busy for us to keep everyone happy. On top of that, we’re having some internal issues with staff… Anyone who knows me, knows that’s nothing new. Suffice to say, I was pretty stressed and tired come Friday.
Yet as Friday rolled around, I found myself thinking about all the things I love about my job. I didn’t wake up Friday morning and make a conscious decision to reflect on the positives, it just happened. I’m so glad it did. It’s easy to get bogged down in the daily grind, the politics and the frustrations.
So, here’s a list of some of the things I like/enjoy about my job.
No matter what, you’re going to mess up sometimes. It’s a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you’re going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends- they’ll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything- they’re your true best friends. Don’t let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they’ll come and go too. And babe, I hate to say it, most of them- actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can’t give up because if you give up, you’ll never find your soul mate. You’ll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn’t mean you’re going to fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don’t, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life’s a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about.
