I stepped away from my desk


I stepped away from my desk. Took a walk to the other building. I thought I might check on my friend who had been going through a challenging time. On the way I ran into a colleague I hadn’t worked with for a long time.

She couldn’t keep the quiver from her voice or hide the tears that welled up as she told me how much more work she’d been given recently and how it had been affecting her.

I know the hug helped – even if only for a moment. People are having a hard time in the workplace. I told her we needed to start a support group there were so many people going through the same thing.

Saying a prayer for the workplace this Friday evening. Wishing everyone a restful weekend.
