This week I have been SO irritated. I've woken up every week day since Monday IRRITATED that I had to go into my office. You see, I'm the only one in my department that needs to be in our physical office every day. So, I got bitter, angry, resentful, and IRRITATED. Why am I being picked on? Why am I being forced to come in when nobody else is?
I have realized how LAME and CRAPPY my attitude is. With many people struggling to make an income, I find myself complaining about having an office to go into. Catholic guilt (from a childhood of being raised catholic) sets in. Seems like a true "first world problem" doesn't it?
I hav also realized how much my attitude needs to change. I need to be grateful for my blessings, including having a job to feel 'irritated' about. Maybe if my attitude changes, circumstances will change for the better as well. Of course this is MUCH easier said than done. I guess that's the first step, realizing a shift needs to happen. Next is the 'how'- still working on that one.
