Like a fish out of water or the thinking salmon’s forever unfulfilled wish to just “go with the flow….”
Marie Antoinette walked softly to her death, did she not? I ask, I wasn’t there, obviously, but maybe someone else might know. I would imagine so since her world was created for her, around her, as she so desired, everything and anything her whole life, what else would she know? Sometimes its good to be Queen of France sometimes not so much. I would imagine the innocence of her life’s intentions provided her with the courage to take those final steps to a most certain death, no?
I’m not walking the path to getting my head chopped off, nor am I going to allow a non-functioning, bush league corporation kill my spirit, my creativity or me. But I am looking at career like death and renaissance approaching and just like my friend Marie I am tenderly walking that path with my head held high and the exception that I will move on to bigger and better, maybe like Marie did?
There is a new time upon us, its a time for ACTION to do what we were put here to do. Think you have a lot a time left, think again and take notice of what's really happening in the world today, can you remember a time with so many natural disasters happening one after another? I can't. Come out of your box and DO what makes you happy, you'll have a great answer to "what did you do with your life that was worthwhile?" when you reach the pearly gates.

For 3 months I had the opportunity to ask myself every morning while I was not rushing to get the j.o.b. one of the toughest questions I have ever faced:
What can I do today that will make me happy?
Why is such a simple question so difficult to answer? Maybe because we have lost ourselves in the make believe worlds of corporations and careers with large organizations that have us so trained to follow we might as well be cattle on the slow moving line to the slaughter house a.k.a. a promotion, bonus, recognition for job well done? How can LIFE, FULFILLMENT, PURPOSE fit in with that crowd?
What happened to the American spirit? The one were you can do anything? I believe the “can do” message was missed in another useless, endless staff meeting, or its on a memo somewhere on the bottom of that stack of papers on your desk you no longer see it’s been there so long. Or its been lost along with the trust we had in our corporations, banks and such.
I started writing this blog once I realized the corporate way was not for me at least not in this one; which runs on third-world country mentality and blatant harassment both sexual and mental, but it’s okay that’s the way they “coach” their employees. God Bless America where there exist laws to protect hard working citizens. Lawyers take note there’s a building in this city with a shit load of discrimination, sexual harassment cases waiting to be tried, unfortunately for those suffering from these situations mostly been subjected to so many scared tactics and threats they have lost their voice in fear of retaliation or lost of income or they just aren’t aware of the rights they now have working in this country. I have a voice and I will use it. For some reason I was the first in my family to be born in this country, I never really understood why until now…
I’m from New Yawk, I know my rights, so don’t fuck with me
