as some of you know, i ended my job last wed. instead of thurs. in a nutshell, one of my clients ran off into the street and when i tried to encourage her to return she turned on me and attempted to assault me twice. it was quite a scary experience and one that shook me pretty hard. i returned to the unit in tears and my supervisor (who happened to be around) allowed me to make wed. my last day. needless to say, i am overjoyed with being separated from that type of work.
i titled this blog thankful because after having gone through this past experience, i am filled with thanksgiving and joy over the littlest things... to be able to know that i have my nights and weekends free with dp, bible study time, and friends... to know i don't need to cut my day short knowing i have a 10 hours shift or that i need to be at work at 3pm... to know i won't be potentially assaulted at work.... and especially, being thankful that dp will support us in the interim.
lastly, i'm thankful for this experience knowing more what i don't want in a job and what type of job i am seeking to find. i've learned to not jump into something head first and am figuring out that i need to do a little more analysis (like dp does endlessly). i am hopeful, and am glad i am. i know that in due time i will rediscover God's will for me and be completing the purpose he has for me. it excites me. please pray for me as i transition into this new lifestyle (maybe for a while).
