I CAN HEAR THE SPIRIT BEATING THROUGH THE HALLWAYS OF MY DREAMS...

today i admitted that i hate my job to my coworkers. they told me they've been thinking of quitting too. then we talked about holding a fake strike. then we eventually started talking about how we feel about our jobs. they said they've been worried about me because they could tell i've been feeling burned out...that i should really go for this other job. they all backed me up and said they know people there and i should go for it. from that point on came a few other pretty important things that i didn't think of...it was mentioned that i am treated like a moron often, as if i am the person to take care of other's mistakes and never recognized as not making the mistake myself. i've known this for some time, but the fact it was stated made me feel more validated...but in the end the general statement was, "you are too young to sit around here. you're doing better than any of us did at your age. get the hell out of here and go get your dreams." then i thought about this tarot reading that tracy and i did (yeah i do tarot, i am that big of a dork). i did the 5 card spread. the first one being the seven of cups, the second being the two of cups, the left card being the ten of cups, the right card being the hermit, and the middle being the star. each one of these took on exactly what i've been thinking about work, life, love....all that crap. here's the meanings of each:
