Working with People.

Have you ever worked with someone that clashed with you?

Well I am realizing that I am always going to work with people that I don't work well with. I need to remind myself that it is ok because God made us very different. Why would you want the same personalities around anyways, that would be boring. Even though frustration can kick in sometimes, God wants us to love everyone and that is what my mission should be in the work force. I need to keep positive. I don't need to consistently see all the flaws in that person. God knows what He is doing when he places you with certain types of people. I don't need to judge, I just need to see that good in everyone. That is what God would do, so that is what I should do.

Speaking Up.

Haven't written in a while because my body decided I need to calm down for a bit. I was sick all last week but I am back. Soak up anything and everything.....

I started my week off at DFCS today. Pretty intense. One thing that stuck out the most for me would have to be my house visit for the day. Went to a house a women that has to small children. Well my heart fell for this little 2 year-old boy that was so cute. He kept coming up to me and holding my hand, talking to me, and than he wanted to sit on my lap. Umm, Ok, what I haven't told you is that he smelled. His diaper was so full and he needed a bath. On the flip side of that, I let him sit on my lap and before I knew it the diaper leaked onto my pants. Now if you think about it I should have ben completely grossed out by this situation but to be honest the diaper was not what got to me it was the fact that I never said anything to the mom about his dirty diaper. Why didn't I say anything? I should have made her aware of the diaper. I mean if I had a child I would have wanted to know if my child's diaper needed to be changed. I should have said something light-hearted so she would know I was not judging her. I know that this is such a small, meaningless story but looking at the big picture I should have spoke up. I needed to say something because that mom needed to be told her son needed a diaper change. She honestly could have not known that it was dirty, but on the other hand it smelled bad enough for it to have been on him for a while. I need to realize that I am going to be in even more uncomfortable situations. I need to man up to my responsibilities and say something.
