How much room is there for human in corporate??

How many of us have contemplated whether the human in us is in the right industry? whether the human us is being compromised by the world we take ourselves into every day in an effort to create the life we desire?
We've all done a bit of work on ourselves, we all know we want happiness, we all have goals & we all are doing stuff we don't love. We get told it's where you're meant to be to "learn" or "grow stronger"...then we get to a point where we don't want to be stronger or learn anything further.  We stop. Then we see our brains racing at the speed of a crazy mosquito on adrenalin! we try meditation..& here we are - in front of a screen - contemplating whether this is the path to anywhere really, because it is really only about the experience-the experience of here & now.  Why then am I sitting here like a fly on stickypaper, not loving the experience?  Is anyone out there? (this is what Robbie Williams shouts out at a concert - in front of thousands of people) I love that one moment- cause aint that how we all feel sometimes?

Should I have said those things in the meeting?  Where no-one dare to speak- the boardroom where people shut-down.. It's got me thinking how much crap can we take in the workplace before using words which truley reflect what we're really thinking? & what is the difference between a prostitute who is selling her body & me who is selling my spirit in the name of money? 

I'm gerenally an upbeat, positive person - quite possibly one of the most positive people I know... So why am I here today experiencing these words like a running tap-outa control...

The music reminds me that I'm a warm, real kinda spirit.  Tell me good people of the world - when is it time to stay & get stronger vs time to leave?

How much human can I be?
