Come out on top :D
Yesterday was a very interesting day at work. As usual, I was busy every second, and I didn't have time for anything. I saw my boss, and told her that I needed to talk to her before she went home. She looked at me, and with a very angry voice, told me she needed to talk to me also. I had no idea why she was mad at me, so I brushed it off, and continued working. Later in the day, as I went into the office with some papers, she asked me what I wanted to talk to her about. I told her that the previous night I had found out that I got the nanny job in Miami, and that I was supposed to be in Bucharest on August 12th. She wasn't surprised or anything. She told me it was ok, that they would find a replacement for me soon. She told me all this without looking at me, and she dismissed me. I felt good about talking to her, then went back to work. When my shift ended, she was still there, so I asked her what she wanted to talk to me about. she told me she changed her mind , and didn't want to tell me anything. During the day, her husband, who is in charge of employees, hiring and stuff, told me that they found someone to hire. I thought that his plan was to advance me to a better position, but by the end of the day, it was clear that they were planning on firing me. I am so glad that I was the one to quit, and in the end , I came out on top.
My future is still unclear, but it is exciting. Going to Miami to be a nanny for at least a year is a new adventure that I am ready to face... I think... I know I will miss my family more than they think, and I will miss my friends here...
Anyway, I will come out on top because I will never stop trying, I will never settle for anything that makes me unhappy. In the end, joy is the purpose of life. So why don't we give our best to find that joy? It will not come to us by merely wishing for it. I know I get down on myself a lot, and sometimes I can't see the joy ahead of me, but I am grateful for all those who believe in me and encourage me, so when I forget who I am and what I want, I can think of them, and believe in myself.
Here is my advice: believe in yourselves, do not let others define what you need to do, do the things you know that are right. Seek for the things that bring you real joy, eternal joy. That is all that matters in the end.

Sounds like Heavenly Father really is taking care of you. What rotten people to work for...I'm glad it's ending. And Miami! Fun in the sun! I'm sure your family (and the branch) will miss you terribly!
