BEWARE OF BLOG

Back in Black

Hi guys and gals! It's been a while eh? To be honest with you I have been thinking about the blog lately, pondering my future in social media and how I can either (a)stop it all together, (b)keep laying low and pretend it doesn't exist or (c)give it another go and try to make it exciting again. My biggest reason for laying low as of late is simply my work schedule, I have not been working a night shift and therefor do not have that transition shift where I used to find time to write. I am also going through a bit of a lesson in humility, I really need to get away from pushing my ideas, let go of some of my grandious visions and just be a contributing member of my community. I still feel a strong sense of leadership, that is just part of me that will not die. I believe that by leading by example, calmly and quietly, your message will get through to those who are ready and willing to learn and share your common goal. So yes, I admit it, I have been pushy, demanding and biased when it comes to certain changes I have made in my life and if any of you who read my blog have been concerned, offended or otherwise, I sincerely apologize and hope that I can withdraw my urge to be 'popular' for lack of a better term. When it all boils down most of what we do from day to day is rather self serving and we do need to slow down once in a while. That being said, I am back on this crazy schedule of seven days, seven nights, seven off. I should find time once again to write! I am excited because I get to watch myself, I want to se if I can stick to my guns, it is difficult to keep your ego in check. I often find myself caught up in conversations about other people, you know what I am talking about here, the classic office gossip, the rumour mill. These petty little words that you use to make yourself feel better than that guy or girl. It's all self serving bullshit! It drives me crazy because I know it's wrong, yet I still do it. So, I hope in this admission of guilt there is reprive. Possibly, just maybe, by actually printing these words the message will finally get through this thick skull. It may be difficult to avoid these types of conversations, I guess I will have to figure out something to skirt to chatter to a different topic, or just outright say that I would rather not talk about other peoples' problems or shortcomings. I have enough of my own, thankyou very much! I truly wish you all the best in the new year, happy holidays, enjoy your family and friends, and please find time to give a little back to your community in any way that you can, no matter how small and insignificant it may seem to you.
