Change of Plans...

I was let go today. All of the tension finally came to a head and my boss decided the program will be in better hands if she finds someone else to run it. Of course I'm angry about the whole thing but also carrying a boatload of shame around having been fired. It's kind of like getting my first speeding ticket, or cavity filling - the blemish is there on the record for everyone to see. I got sacked, booted, canned.

Obviously I whole-heartedly disagree with the reasons for my termination and firmly believe it has everything to do with me personally - which simultaneously means it is not about me it's really about her. It’s my judgment that my boss is emotionally immature, incapable of living without projection and is uncomfortable around people who set boundaries and speak up for themselves rather than roll over when she yells louder.

The upshot is that I am staffing an initiation weekend for a group I have mentioned before; The Mankind Project and their New Warrior Training Adventure. The processes and events that comprise the weekend will provide great and powerful chances for me to accept this and move through it with maturity and power., therby automatically making room for whatever is next in life.
