Yesterday was my last day at a job that I have despised for nearly three years. When I was gathering my last personal items from my desk, I found two dried roses that were at least two years old. A friend gave them to me when I was having a particular bad day, and I forgot that I had saved them. I decided to press them into my journal, and as I was taping the dried petals down, a little epiphany hit me. I realized that I was leaving the old me, and taking steps to a more positive future, a new and vibrant and hopefully happy new me.
