"Sometimes the only way to get to the other side is to go through the fire." -- Corsair48

"Before you can rise like a phoenix from the ashes, you must first crash and burn." -- Corsair48

Today I was in the fire. One bad call, an angry, messenger shooting member. I almost quit. Almost put my badge on the desk and walked out.

But I didn't. Because on the other side of this fire, may yet be a promotion. The promotion I came so close to getting a year ago. The promotion to a permanent trainer after being a temporary trainer 2 1/2 years ago.

Perhaps soon I will rise from these ashes. Either as a trainer, or in a different job.

"Blame keeps wounds open. Only forgiveness heals. Forgive, not for their sake, but for your own peace of mind. Forgive everyone everything as quickly as possible.
