A RESTED SOUL

I MET A RESTED SOUL FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE. I COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHY I WOULD GO AND TALK TO HER, AND WHEN SHE WOULD LEAVE WORK, I WOULD STAND IN HER OFFICE AND JUST LOOK AT ALL HER THINGS, THE SENSE OF PEACE AND TRANQUILITY WAS STILL THERE. IT TOOK ME A LONG TIME TO FIGURE OUT WHAT AS GOING ON. AND THEN LIKE A WAVE, IT JUST ENGULFED MY BODY AS TO WHAT WAS GOING ON. I WAS NEVER ABLE TO TALK TO ANYONE IN HER POSITION, AND SHE MADE IT SO EASY FOR ME. JUST SO CALM, WHEN ALL AROUND HER WAS CHANGING. SHE TOOK THE TIME OUT OF HER BUSY SCHEDULE, AND TALKED TO ME, ACTUALLY STOP WHAT SHE WAS DOING AND LOOKED AT ME. SHE MADE ME FEEL LIKE A PERSON. I WOULD GO TO HER OFFICE AND I WOULD SAY

"IT'S JUST ME", "IF YOUR BUSY I'LL COMEBACK" AND SHE WOULD SAY NO HAVE A SEAT. ( I WAS AN UN CONFIDENT PERSON AT THAT TIME.) AND WE WOULD TALK. AND SO THIS WENT ON, AND THEN IT CAME TO ME I'M STARTING TO FEEL BETTER ABOUT MYSELF. I DIDN'T KNOW I FELT BAD ABOUT MYSELF, SO MY SELF IMAGE STARTED TO CHANGE. I BEGAN TO TALK TO MORE PEOPLE, IN AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE SHOULD NOT TALK, THE MORE YOU WORK THE MORE MONEY YOU MADE. NOT ME BLAH...BLAH....BLAH. I DON'T KNOW HOW SOMEONE CAN TALK ON THE PHONE ALL DAY, GO TO WORK AT NIGHT AND WON'T SHUT UP. THERE WERE THERE WONDERFUL YOUNG LADIES THAT WALK BY ALL THE DESK, OH NO THERE NOT HAVING THAT, SO I WOULD TO SAY PART OF A SENTENCE WHEN THEY WENT BY THE FIRST TIME AND THE LAST PART OF THE SENTENCE WHEN THEY WENT BY AGAIN. YES THEY WOULD STOP FOR 3 SEC FROM TIME TO TIME. AM I NEW IN THE PROOF DEPARTMENT!!

HELL NO MY 2ND JOB WAS PROOF IN 1975, THIS WAS ALWAYS THE JOB I WOULD HAVE TO HELP MAKE ENDS MEET. I FOUND OUT I CAN'T KEY WORTH A CRAP!!! I MOST PEOPLE THAT WOULD CRUSH, BUT I HAVE TAKEN AWAY SO MUCH MORE FROM THAT JOB THAN I CAME WITH. IT WAS A SELF WAKENING EXPERIENCE, SURROUNDED BY ANGELS.

ONE OF THEM IS JUST A GEM. THANK YOU FROM MY HEART.
