Faith

Today’s word is:  Faith.  Hutt girl mentioned it quite frequently in class today.  Although her best line today was “I love the Hutt”.  Beautiful execution of it too – as only a true Hutt girl could say it!

Hutt girl was, I think, using the word faith in the context you have to believe and back yourself.  Faith is important to me, but sometimes I struggle with it in terms of what it means to believe in both God and myself.

This morning I had my “exit” interview re completion of my current contract with the “beautiful man”, Mr T.  Because he is beautiful man he said all these wonderful things to me, and described what he would say if he was giving a reference.  It was very affirming.    He described me, among other things as a “rock”: dependable, deliver, just get on do the job  etc etc.   All good stuff.  And then he added something to the effect “and its so good to work with someone who doesn’t have any issues”!  Ha!  A professional assessment from an ex teacher/social worker who has spent his life working with students (and probably colleagues) who have “issues”.   

I thanked Mr T, and said what he had said was good to hear, especially as it was his professional opinion and I considered he was qualified to comment on such matters.  Kind of a private joke to myself really.  I’ll take that as today’s assessment and a signal that I really am making progress, and moving forward, even though I have some moments where I momentarily lack faith and forget to back myself.

Today’s session with the Hutt girl was a good honest workout.  She played California Dreamin as track 4.  I was mistaken,  the LM version does include my favourite lines.

Today's word: Faith: you (and I) have gotta have faith as George Michael would say - however, we define that.
