Life's little surprises!
So, have I mentioned yet that I have a new job. It's as a free lance proofreader for a "talent" agency out of Orlando. Have I also mentioned that I hate it. Yes, that's right I don't like it. It's kind of funny actually. For my entire life (well, at least since I was a junior in high school) I have wanted to work for a publishing company and edit books. And, while I like to read, I have found that I don't really like this whole proofreading thing.
Here's why: It's a non-relational job. I sit in a corner with my back to the world and I don't interrupt and I have to get pages and pages done before I can leave and I don't know the people I work with. You know what...it makes pharmacy work seem fun. YES, I did just type that, it wasn't an accident.
In the past couple of weeks I've wondered if sometimes God sits there and thinks, "You idiot, this isn't really what I have for you, but since you're so stubborn go ahead and try it. I'm telling you, you're not gonna like it. I've tried to show you the way I have for you but you are being bull-headed (again). So here, go ahead and try to have your cake and eat it too."
Now, I realize that God and I don't think alike, and that God is more kind and compassionate than I am. But, I still wonder. Anyone else know what I mean?
