Kindness of others

Today the kindness of others made me smile. I've not been feeling well and my resiliency at work is way down as a result. This afternoon the stress caught up with me and one of my co-workers stood there until I felt better and pep talked me right back into reality.

It's funny, this year my best work friend went to a new job and I thought for sure I'd be isolated and alone all year and work would just be work. I underestimated my coworkers so much. With my old pal gone I've made some new connections and with people I never thought I'd get to know. Instead of having one work best friend I now have a couple and it is so nice. I feel more welcome there than ever before and respected for my opinions and ideas. Today, the kindness of others made me smile.
