Everybody’s Working for the Weekend

I worked a great deal this weekend. My brain is mush and my body aches. Now the weather is going to start changing and I’ll be sleepy all the time as the sun slides to lower hemispheres. But, none of that is as bad as being this guy:

I’ll have my day though. All that work paid off in the meeting today, as the client was happy. That means Boss Lady is happy, which means I am happy.

That happens often in life. We suffer through things that seem useless or ridiculous at the time. We complain, moan, and bitch. But on the other side of all that belly-aching, we come out learning something new about someone, something, or even ourselves.

It’s the message from the cosmos that as we choose paths, we create paths, and destroy paths. Something tells us deep down in our reptilian brain that everything has a reason. Everything has a purpose. Even formatting web forms at 2 in the morning will lead me to nirvana.
