Anew.

Today is a new year. I went to work today, and in the aftermath of what happened yesterday I learned a lot important things from that experience. I'm pleased to recognize that in a state of panic, I have a fight attitude versus flight. However, it also means that my emotions go straight up to the roof. The concept of thinking for myself is still foreign. When I said, "I was trying to get the best of both worlds: protect myself and protect company property." The nurse scoffed at me and said, YOUR LIFE IS MOST IMPORTANT!!! I completely understand that now.
I still maintain an attitude where I give people the benefit of the doubt but not only that, I have to think smart AND think safe. This experience also taught me that we as humans have to educate ourselves and not judge people when we are put in a position where someone has wronged us for absolutely no reason.
The first day of this year has taught me to keep my mind open and sharp. Life has many more lessons to come!
