She

I still remember the very first time I laid eyes on you. I was in a hurry to get back to my station because I was almost on over lunch but my former TL blocked my way in to introduce me to you.. "She will be your new TL.." and I said "Hi nice to meet you new TL.."

At the time that she came in I was in a state of desperation for bigger challenges mainly because I was aiming for something higher but I was never given enough attention so to speak so hoping that things will be different in accordance to her perspective the way I saw it I approached her and expressed my plans.

That was the start of a great friendship for both of us. She took her precious time for me and guided me in making my dreams possible. Since then everything else fell into it's right place. I remember everything, the good ones and the band ones and the more complicated ones..

I'm not a stalker ok? I may have felt something beyond emotion but because you are someone special to me plus the fact that you are already involved to someone I did not want to destroy the friendship so I decided to live things the way they are. And I think I made the right decision. Though sometimes my mind wanders what if you were not married? What if you don't have a child? What if I tried to tell you? Would things be different today?

I certainly can't tell because I don't hold tomorrow but today has a big impact on my tomorrow. I'm definitely over that feelings and I don't want to go down that road. She's my TL and she has a child and she loves him that's it!

I am sorry for sometimes because i'm pre occupied with my work I failed to appreciate you when the situation calls for it. It has and was never my intention not to appreciate you. But I really do appreciate everything TL. And now that you have decided to leave us indefinetly eventhough it's sad because there will be no more Arlene Doplon that I can confide on my issues at work..there will be no more Arlene Doplon who brings out the best in each one of us. Damn it's really sad that is why I joined the Team Building for the very last time even though bear does not want me to. Because we all want to be with you for the last time..

Nevertheless, We respect your decision and we know it's for your child sake.
I will never forget October 19, 2009.

Thank you TL Arlene Doplon. Thank you for the great memories.
