You can't always get what you want...
You can't always get what you want... Great song by the Stones. And appropriately, sort of how my life is going at the moment. It's ok, I'm not really complaining about it. I know that no matter how real life issues get in the way of things, I just have to have some patience and deal with it. It's mainly work getting in the way of me wanting to push forward and get back on track, but I know that sometimes, it takes time before things develop into where you want them to be and where things are REALLY are at the moment. It's been six months since I've started my new job as a contractor for another company. And things are going well, but, they haven't hired me yet. I did just recently have a good discussion with my manager, and they informed me that they do not have an open position yet to bring me into the company full time. The department that I'm working in doesn't have an available position in the company as of yet, but they said that could change sometime possibly by next year. Contractors sort of get the short end of the stick. Yes, we get money. But the benefits working as a contractor really suck. Shitty health care, no days off, no 401k or bonuses. So I was hoping that my company would have hired me by now. However, they didn't say that they were not going to hire me. It's just that they don't have the available position to hire me at the moment. So I just have to hold on and wait a while longer. And the nice thing is that they did say that they were pleased with how I am working right now. So it's an indicator that they are planning on hiring me full time, but they can't at the moment due to there not being an open position at the moment. For me, I just have to be patient. Patience however isn't my strong suit. It's something I'm learning to deal with on a daily basis. Same thing with my love life. I want to have a relationship with someone, but finding that person who is right for me...well that's frustrating because I'm not finding anyone. It's like the song from Wreckless Eric "Whole Wide World". Maybe my girl does live in Tahiti. And yes, Cage the Elephant covered this song. I know my music! But again, I just have to be patient. I know eventually I will find someone. But it's not on "MY TIME" it's on "God's time". And yes, I know for some of you who don't believe in God, I get it, I'm not trying to force my ideals on you. It's just what I believe. I know God's got a plan for me. What it is, I don't know, and what he has in store for me either. I just have to have a bit of faith that things will work out and when it happens, it happens. So you can't always get what you want. But if you try sometimes, you get what you need. So for now, I'll be patient, be aware, and hope things will get better. Peace, and thanks for reading. |

I am with you being on "God's time".... I always say that things happen for a reason, even if we don't understand the reason at the time. Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better man. --Benjamin Franklin
