That's the song from which I've stolen the title of this blog. 1) I love the film, 2) I love the song too.
Anyway, it describes how I feel about something I heard this week at work.
I am losing one of my 'team'. Their camp is not happy about not getting their own way on something. So they are moving somewhere else. I'm disappointed to say the least.
I work really hard for this particular person and ensure their needs are met. Everything is never quite enough. Not that I think the decision was based on what I have or have not done. It was far more political than that, but I don't think their camp has though things through at all.
Why is it, the more you do for somebody, the more they expect, even if you have gone way beyond the call of duty? Shame.
I do look at it and remember to be grateful. On and off I also keep a book of things to be grateful for, I write 5 things per day when I do it. What you think about, you bring about....more things to be grateful for.
What I'm saying is that I think this loss is so unnecessary. They are not thinking about all the very wonderful things they have currently, that they will not get if they move.
Some people will never be happy. Nothing is EVER good enough for some people.
I have days when I wish I'd not met certain people, wish I had met others at different junctions, had more money, had more excitement, taken opportunities etc.
But really I don't have it bad at all. I am healthy, I love my job, I have great family, some great friends, I am reasonably intelligent, I've been on some great holidays...etc etc.
Today I'm grateful for my brother in law, my job which was so rewarding today, the fact my skinny jeans still fit, my upcoming holiday and chocolate!
