Monday - the usual

I can reference back to the Go-Go's hit - Just Another Manic Monday!! Time's are lean and getting leaner; clearly observed in my workplace as people are scrambling to find jobs and survive layoffs. Although I refrain from discussing politics, I do observe the impact of others on many and observe thier challenges. My powerless over their challenges only seems to motivate me to do what I can to help them learn how to better help themselves. I am grateful for those that have helped find the peace in the middle of a hectic room full of desparate, sad people; close my eyes for a brief moment and count blessed breaths in...and...out. Another moment passes and back to the masses.
