A little ray of sunshine...

As my world is turned upside down one more time...I struggle to see the positive side of this new situation. Work as I see it, is no longer in the classroom with students but back behind an office cubical in the middle of everywhere! Maybe it will be the challenge I need. Maybe this is one of my strenghts...it's growing on me or at least the anxiety medication is working! As a treat or maybe a visual reminder of things that are pretty, I bought 24 yellow roses at sam's to brighten up my desk corner. Something to stare at instead of staring out to space and possible freaking out my new fellow co-workers.
Yellow roses signify strong feelings of pure joy, gladness, happiness and
friendship. Friendship is the main meaning of the yellow rose but it also
signifies familiar love and domestic happiness. Yellow roses also symbolize fun
and freedom. Today, the yellow rose is used to embrace a new beginning...Yellow roses are appropriate for marking the beginning of a new life
together or for starting all over again...

So in the middle of being close to 40...I'm starting over or come full circle into what I used to do. Will this make me more content with my life? As I stare at the soft silkly petals of each rose...I'm thankfull that God made such beauty for all to enjoy...even they have their torns but perserve through....then I guess so can I.
