Even a goddess in training can be challenged.
I have returned to school so that I could have a career in the medical field. It's been a challenge.
I willingly quit a job in customer service that was paying me extremely good money. When you're not treated well, after a while you wonder if the money is worth it. It truly was a bad job for me. I spent ten years in a company I was wiling to spend the rest of my life at. In the beginning I felt like I mattered. I was given choices about things, and asked my opinion on how this or that could be better. But then, little by little all that respect disappeared. By the tenth year, I was nothing more than a robot; a cog in a wheel.
I started to worry that I would get so angry and frustrated, I'd go postal.
Seriously.
So I made a life changing decision. I went into work one day, gathered all my stuff from my desk, turned in my security badge and left. The only thing I said to my supervisor was "it just quit being worth it."
And I went back to school.
School is hard. I've needed every bit of support I've been offered by friends or family. I've come to a space in my life where I feel it's OK to ask for the extra positive energy. Which is why I started the candle lighting page I'm linking below.
Even goddesses can ask for good energy sometimes.
Yanno?

Mari... it's been a long time! Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing - and was greeted with this exciting news. Yay for you! What a great decision. You're way too smart not to be challenging yourself, so going to school is perfect! Congratulations and please add me to your mental list of people from whom you are receiving encouragement and positive energy.
You know...
I know it's be very difficult for you and sometimes you've doubted you ability..but you can and more importantly ARE doing it.
As Lisa said..(hey Lisa)..you're smart and you have the ability to be what ever you want to be.
I have lit a candle in your honor. But even without actually litting the candle you are always shining brightly.
Love you
Sis
