Quitting

Two more conversations this morning helping people sift things and encouraging the bold step to quit.  It is not something that fits on a resume.   This is probably why I may never be hired, most anywhere.  Yes, it is most likely suited to a position on the edge of things.  

I am good at helping people

Quit.

There is no such slot

On a resume.

I suppose it is a kind

Of discernment.

Still

Discernment is so often named

In the positive direction.

No.

I help people quit things,

Hold hands

Give a shove

Create spaces

So God can work

In a more positive direction:

Find new space

For the woman

who coordinated coffee hour

For twenty five years;

The treasurer who could*t balance

Her own checkbook

To save her life;

I am good at seeing

Negative spin.

I know somehow

When things

Need to change.

I hold hands,

Give a shove,

Create space so God can work

However God

Will work.

This is often not

What employers

Want to see.
