I'm just living and these are my thoughts

I must say that I have never been a big fan of Nas, other than the fact that he is very Very Very attractive. My excuse for not liking "up north" music is due to the beats. However, I got more interested in Nas following the release of "Daughters", which made me go get this album.

I am now a HUGE Nas fan, since the release of "Life is Good" I have been digging in the Nas archive wanting to listen to his old music. Nas is a great rapper/poet that is often overlooked. I have never been a huge Jay-z fan but after fully listening to this album Nas is a better rapper. He has deep messages behind his songs, yes I am a southern girl that likes that beat in the trunk. With this cd the beat wasn't important, the hidden deep message had my attention, which is important with any rapper or singer. This cd made me asked "what are we listening to that we are calling music".

Since starting this blog I have been wanting to write what comes to mind, but I have been getting slightly discouraged for my blog layout not being how I want it to be, In other news getting to the point.

I am working on a better relationship with God, trying to understand what is my purpose, what is it that he wants me to do with various situations throughout the day.

My manager is a pretty decent guy but not always fair guy. In my current role I am not paid alot and I know I can do much more at my company that I am with. Every chance I try to branch out and go to another department he stops that by telling that manager "Oh you don't want her see has a bad attitude", all while telling me my great attiude gives his department  an extra boost.

My director informed me that he mention my name to someone in regards to a new role that needs to be filled. I was very eager to jump on this chance being that I am not sure when another job will come around. As soon as I knew about this i said "Thank you God for allowing my director to step in and speak on my behalf since his word has more power than my manager." I took it like "wow" this must be what God wants me to do. I was very calm prayed about it and then decided not to worry about it anymore. The new role is not quite my role I would like to do, but I knew that I could do it and the schdule is much better than my current one. Everything sound great until I heard the starting amount $15 meaning $28,800 a year. BUMMER!! My goal in my head was $17. I told myself I would cross that bridge when I get to it.

The next day I received a call from a fellow coworker who informed me of a new role that my company will be filling and to apply that upcoming Monday. I asked a few questions and found this role is what I currently what in a job. Travel out the state, entry level starting at $40k a year. I would be the buyer for testing to products to put in our stores. Then it hit me, "is this role what I should be doing or is this the devil trying to confuse me". I told myself either way it goes I will pray about it and ask God to order my footsteps.
 
Moral of the story..... Even if you don't like your current role, do your job well, you never know who may be watching.


 
Okay, So this is my very first entry. I am still shocked that I have spent the last few hours working on the layout, pictures, and style of this blog. I have never had a desire for a blog until yesterday. Instead of nagging my friends with my endless thoughts of humor I could just put my thought on a blog, and somewhere in the world somebody may enjoy my thoughts a lil more.

There are so many things I want to do to this blog but for right now I am going to get ready for bed. I do have a full time job.
