week in review

Its been a tough week, to be honest.

A few minutes ago I went over to Doug's blog(see sidebar)and read about being transparent. I've been trying to live my life in a transparent sort of way for some time now and at times I have failed.
Much of that failure is brought on by myself and either feeling as though I cannot get my words to others across as they should or by receiving the words that others speak to me wrong, as not caring. I've done that this week, for sure. I was hurt by something that a friend 'said' to me. Their words seemed to be very impersonal and not caring. Which in the end brought me to respond in an impersonal and not caring manner. THAT is not transparency at its best!! I'm working on it.
In the meantime, I've had some wonderful times of hanging out with various people here this week. I think that's what I like the most about this new job of mine; that its actually my job to build relationships and to assist the Lord is bringing those relationships and people closer to Him. Wow! What a job! Could it get any better than this?

Blessings.
