Nudges

I'm perfectly happy to admit I need direction in this life. Nothing thrills me more than when I get some help navigating my decisions. This happened today in a very subtle way, but definitely pertaining to my question.

First of all, I should say I'm not a person who believes in coincidence. I believe something greater than myself exists that shapes the patterns of my life. Many people call it many different names, I call it God. This afternoon I asked for help deciding if I should pursue an opportunity to work for a different company. It's a change I've been contemplating for several months and one I'd really enjoy. This evening I got two very different but wonderful confirmations that I am exactly where I need to be. My favorite face of Tribeca stopped by for a brief chat. A man I met on my first day as a barista at Locanda Verde and a man I made coffee for 2 years before moving over to his hotel. Then a family in town for the marathon stopped by to tell their stories from their glorious day! Yep, I'm happy here.

True, this is not a job I want to do forever. This is no secret, the GM of the hotel knows this, but until that time comes when I need to leave, I remain content. Never complacent, but content.
