I am currently experiencing much headaches, tiredness, fatigue, and sleepiness. All these want me to get away from work, not wake up, getting a Medical Certificate to sleep in and rest.
Yet, I am internally filled with a certain joy that tells me, go today and endure the pain first. It will be an interesting experience.
It has been so far. Being confronted in truth and love by a colleague regarding morale and opportunities to make good what is already possibly wrong. As I reflect on it, I believe that the theme of respect will hold today together.
Respect, tell me what it means to me. I really like that. It has a sense of a respectful challenge to the listener to engage in real and meaningful conversations. It is a sort of invitation to get in with the other person, to find out more not because of voyeuristic intent, but more out of naive curiosity.
And I know I am tired. Maybe I will have to call in sick on Wednesday.
