There are a lot of days when you just want to be left alone. However, there aren't many people who get to have that pleasure. You just have to interact with people whether you want to or not. Depending on your family or nature of work, you have to lend your ear or give advice.
For me, it's not a problem because that is the role I willingly signed up for. I am a parent of two young children who need constant support, encouragement and discipline. Dealing with my children helps me to be able to deal with my coworkers as well. Sometimes you have to nurture, teach and even give baby steps. Remember, somebody had to guide you along the way too. Of course, there are days that you have to be strong-willed and tough to ensure that things are being done correctly.
Some days you may want to run and hide or you may even sit in disbelief at your children's actions or another adult's actions. We can't predict the future and for sure we cannot predict what anyone may choose to do. We just need to be understanding and think with a problem-solving mindset.
No matter how you try, things will never be perfect but you have to find the good in every situation and work towards reducing the bad.
