Il y a quelque je ne sais quoi
I miss Korea. Really....
Perhaps it's the general dissatisfaction....
But of what?
I have a job, a place to stay,
My children with me
Yet.........
Something is missing.

Il y a quelque je ne sais quoi

Letting Go
It was most strange when, during an out-of-office training, a fellow trainee at my table was from a place I used to work at.
Bitter memories surged as I had felt life dealt me a blow most unfair regarding my time at that place.
There were some personality clashes w a higher ranking staff in d office n I was asked to leave after just under 3 months, citing difference in expectation.
No chance for improvement, just a bye bye.
It caused a series of self doubt, unemployment n financial crisis... yes ultimately, a brief low that could b 'labelled' as depression.
God was good as He is now n I moved on.
I have a great job, got my nursing license renewed... But self-doubt occasionally rears its ugly head n scratches the old scars. Until yesterday.
Finally, I can close that chapter as through the other trainee's comments, i saw this same person for who she is... abuser of power, player of warped office politics, and a schemer.. Which had no big picture, 'for the good of the organisation' or other guises except to cover her own insecurities.
This person was not exactly lacking... In experience, profession nor wealth.
Yet there was this insatiable need to belittle and destroy any works of others.
I felt vindicated and the self doubt lifted from my shoulders...
Praise God!!! I didn't have to wait 6 years to move on, even though it took that long to close d chapter. It's all good.
