I was really excited last night after what I considered to be a long day at work.  It was definitely a temporal glitch.  I got in around lunch time like I have been the past couple of weeks & pretended to be busy.  That was probably the thing, trying to look busy.  I've only been doing what I feel like is the priority which is testing and getting a bigger picture.  Everything else I'll get to when I get to when necessary. 

Anyhow, I went to this talk yesterday about how to be more of a resource in the Baha'i community when it comes to teaching.  At the end when everyone was buzzing around, socializing and talking about their ideas, I started to get more excited.  A couple of friends of mine, me included, zipped back to Minneapolis listening to loud music.  And as most things end with one particular friend, we ended up at Denny's to brainstorm our next points of action.  I was in a crazy goofy kind of mood.  We did manage to get some things done, however.  That night when I finally went back to the familiar surroundings of my room, I listened to more music and danced around the small floor space.  I eventually calmed my mind enough to go to sleep. 

I'm hoping things change for the better.  I probably often write that I "hope" for certain things, & it can be appropriate as long as I know how to distinguish what calls for action and what calls for merely 'being'.   Life is at a particular crossroads and although I can still identify many challenges ahead, different aspects of my working life are reaching a critical period.  They call for a sense of creativity, dedication, and foresight on my part in order to advance my learning/understanding.  We'll see how it goes.  I want to keep my enthusiasm as I know that sometimes excitement can wane.  For right now, I'm doing all right.

I'm at work right now, there's some down time that I may not be able to have in the coming weeks.  I walked in this morning and saw how they changed the teacher's space.  I immediately felt more at ease.  They are trying to transition my own work space though.  I've been hanging out in this fairly empty room.  I'm not centered around the excitement and chaos anymore, but maybe it's for the best.  Have to keep sane somehow.
