Have Job...Will Not Travel

Yes...I was offered a job yesterday. I will be working at a local Nursing Home. There are many good aspects to that. I will be developing some of the "traditional" nursing skills that I never got to use in public health. I think the people I will be working with will be pretty nice. One of the things that the administrator said in my interview was, "We try to hire nice people." I will be serving a population of people that need TLC and someone to listen to them. I hope I can get up to speed quickly so I can get comfortable enough to "be there" for the people who are living there. One thing about this job, I will not have to travel.
So, to those of you out there that were very supportive to me (you know who you are) while I was looking for work and going through the upheaval of the transition out of the Health District...Thank you from my heart. "Thank you" doesn't seem like enough. I have deepened some relationships that I hope will last the rest of my life. I have learned to love some people that are remarkable and felt loved as well.
I have left behind some relationships that I thought would be lifetime. I was hurt but I am not bitter. As I have said previously, "My conscience is clear." I suspect that most of the people that hurt me think they were doing the right thing at the time. I hope they will begin to see things more clearly over time. I wish them luck and peace.
Change is good even if it is a bit frightening at first.
Someone once said, "Chance favors the prepared mind."
So...Be prepared.(the Boy Scout motto) You never know what's coming around the corner.
Love, peace and good fortune,
