It has come to pass

Today is a rather sad day for me. One that I knew was coming and tried to deny. Its hard dealing with change. Sometimes it can come up on you unexpectedly while other times you feel it moving towards you like a wave about to break on the sand. I have never cared very much for change. Maybe its my Scorpio nature that makes me want things to stay as they are. Especialy when those things make me so happy. But change is inevitable, its a necessary part of the universe. The only constant they say is change. And so I am excepting this one.
So what has happened? Well if anyone knows me they know I have two jobs. One is working in an after school program with middle school kids. The other is my dream job which I love so much. I work behind the counter at a small privately owned metaphysical book store in Old Town. I spend my days surrounded by books and crystals, talking to cheerful wiccans and other folk. At least I use to.
Today my boss, a kind man , sadly told me he was giving up on this old book store. The economy just wasn't there for us this time around and he just cant afford to stay open any longer. Any longer literally means that. Tomorrow is my last day at the store I have come to love so much.
The saddest part is that we had just moved the store to Old Town. A wonderful soothing community with old historical buildings that you can feel the life in. I was looking forward to seeing the trees blossom outside the large store front window this spring and getting to enjoy the local festival es that where soon going to be held. Its a pity, a real shame.
However I do believe everything happens for a reason. I don't know what this reason is yet but I am sure something even more wonderful will come along for me. I feel that Old Town hasn't seen the last of me and I know for certain that spirituality is going to stay a strong focus in my life. Even if I lose the nifty employee discount on all the neat things I liked to buy. *la sigh*
So friends, have a heart for me in my time of morning. I am determined not to get depressed but if anyone else out their loved The Mountain as I did then mourn with me at least a few moments over this sad news. Then tomorrow we can smile again.
