Another Piece of the Puzzle Falls into Place
Especially in the down times of our lives, when we have a little time on our hands, we can put that time to very excellent use. As we are works in progress throughout our lives, we are always looking for the clues as to what makes us tick, as to the person, deep down, that we are.
Today, I was using an on-line tutorial to learn how to do Sudoku puzzles. There are strategies of logic one can use to solve these intriguing puzzles. And I marveled at the ingenuity of each of these different approaches.
It was then that I had one of those "aha" moments. I love to unravel a problem and to find the solution. Actually, I was reminding myself of something I had forgotten. I love to analyze things... situations, accounting problems, a technical problem with the computer or a Sudoku problem. I knew that about myself. It was just something that had just slipped my mind.
Whether it is a moment of discovery of something about ourselves or a moment of rediscovery of something forgotten, something very valuable has happened. For me, it was and is important right now because I can continue my job search with a clearer focus on what I want in a job and hopefully I will have improves my chances of landing one that will be a better fit for me.
My life is very much of a jigsaw puzzle. When I was younger, my parents would assist me in placing in the first pieces in the proper position. When I got a little older, I used these pieces to build on, as I moved on in my life. At every stage of the journey, I was able to recognize the available pieces of the puzzle that I could set in place to fill an empty space in the grid. I am still doing that... discovering or rediscovering something about myself, that I use to better understand who I and what I want in my life.
I build my life, one piece at a time. And for good measure, some parts of me require several puzzle pieces that I will discover each one at different points in time, just in case I forget that particular aspect about myself. That is exactly what happened to me today.
