Hindu Deities!

You are like Mother Durga. She fights demonic
energies and she is there to gaurd all from
evil. She eliminates evil slow yet efficiently.
You are closest to her because you gaurd what
you love and all around you. Mother Durga is a
beautiful and stong feminine form. Very unique


What Hindu God or Goddess are you like?

You know - I liked this one, but I get the feeling that the only question that made a difference was the first one...

Just when you start to think something is hopeless...

Sometimes I get myself SO worked up about stuff.
Sometimes I get so concerned about things that I have little or no control over…
Sometimes I get frustrated that not everyone is as concerned about turnaround times as I am.
Or giving clear answers.
Or even just saying – I understand….

Then I add that to the equation of a friend who seems to rub stuff in that she gets to do things that I can’t. That she can manage to meet a new interest every time she gets out of her car. That she has people asking her to have a child for them…when it’s questionable if I could even do that for myself (yes, she knows this). That energy work comes so natural to her, and it’s something I have to prepare for and focus on to do…
And that she despises my profession.

Finally, as I’m at a point where all I want to do is hide from the world and cry…there’s a break-through. A person that has not been giving me an answer about an integral part of my life has finally said, “Yes…”

Then I see a light peeking through the clouds, and I know that I’m going to manage after all.

Ok – here’s something odd.

Last night I was watching the Dead Zone on tivo…it’s the one from LAST Sunday. Anyway, the female interest in this episode was a woman doing my job in the same industry…and the folks with her were acting just like my peers.

So, as I’m watching this, I’m thinking, “You know, there are NOT a lot of women in my specific position in this country.” Really – in a company of 30,000+ people, I’m the only woman (out of 30 people) doing this job. And when you get into working with other companies, you realize that in this specific field, women are rare. Hey – this show has ME in it! Way cool!

Of course, then there was the whole thing where she was in danger and all… and as I’m watching this with my friends, we’re only 15 minutes into it and I predicted how/why it was going to end. Hmmm – yeah – and I was right.

So, I thought this was neat. I thought it was just being observant and being able to extrapolate an outcome from an observed series of events (hmmm – that’s kind of part of my job as it is…). Of course, my job also comes with expecting that the person on the other end of the issue is not being completely honest…(since something like 75-80% of folks in the US thought this kind of activity was NOT actually wrong, even though it’s illegal…and no, it has nothing to do with any kind of psychoactive substances).

I shared this all with one of my peers this morning, and as I started describing the course of events in the show….he completed it with the same outcome.

Methinks the writers have worked in my industry….
