Quick...Hit the RESET button!

Ever wish you had a reset button? You get half-way into the middle of something and think "Quick!!! Hit the reset button!!" It's usually one of those "Ah...Crap!!" kinda moments. Well, sometimes these moments can create a nasty ripple effect. One person messes up, and then before you know it somebody else is acting irrationally because of something that didn't even really involve them to begin with.  (I've been cleaning this kinda stuff up all week...the week of Valentine's Day at a middle school can be interesting) 


This inadvertently happened to me this week. I let myself get all upset over something that didn't really involve me. Well, not directly, anyway. I came to a quick realization of where my place is though that's for sure...and didn't care for it at all. Why should it bother me how someone else decides to "fix" something? But it did...I guess recently being involved in areas where I get to be in charge and make decisions has allowed me to get too used to being "important", and this situation left me feeling like the slime on the bottom of the bucket after a fishing trip. And then, of course, I needed a "reset" for my irrational feelings....but hey I'm a girl, I'm supposed to be irrational, right?


Although....being a true believer of a little pity party is okay, but then pick yourself up and shake off the dirt...and get over it, that's what I did. Or at least that's what I'm working on...I think I could use to kick off a little dirt still...and I'm sure there's a lesson to be learned in there as well, that I will try to reflect on at some point, and maybe even come out better for it.  So, if I'm supposed to learn from this experience, maybe I don't need  a reset button, but it sure would be nice to at least have an EASY button??


EEhhhh... who am I kidding, nothing is easily corrected or learned....at least not in my world! ... What about white out??!!

By the way- a good hard run helps clear the head, but  I'm still not a strong enough of a swimmer to swim with messed up focus :)
