Glimpsing Center, Again.
This job this summer has tried me in almost every possible way: long hours, big disappointments, lack of control over the final product, difficult people, and self doubt. I constantly feel inadequate and like I am a disappointment to my employer archi-treasures. I don't sleep well, I am constantly worried.
My meditation practice has lapsed for up to a couple days at a time and my alcohol consumption has increased in a predictably stressful and summer way. These two things are not good for me.
But today I had a glimpse of the center I once knew.
"I can only do this job as well as I can. Any body's disappointment or agendas belong to them not me."
