Chaplain

Being a chaplain is the greatest feeling. A sense of selflessness, offering help. A chaplain is respected.

Being a hospice Chaplain is life affirming. Doing hospice sales is soul sucking. Operations are a little better.

The opetrmistriat checking my eyes asked me about hospice and wanted to talk about it when I told her what I did for a living. But I didn’t match her passion. I am a program director, not a care provider. I didn’t get enthusiastic. Back in the day when I told people I was a chaplain and they wanted to talk about it I shared the energy.

I miss loving who I am and my job. But I don’t feel compelled to go back. I loved being the chaplain but I did hospice chaplain work for almost seven years. There would not be the discovery or wonder like before. I need to move forward and find my next adventure. Phoenix is more and more exiting everyday. Being a director is “meh.” I will work hard, I want to succeed but it isn’t my passion. It is a job. I feel bad admitting that.
