Cynical yet feeling Blessed
Sunday, May 27th, 2007Was feeling a bit upset over some body language people expressed on fri and put me off attending a function during the night. Chanced taking a cab home who was driven by a former employee of my organisation.
It just off with him sharing experiences he had and in the middle of the conversation, he went very cynical and had some comments that were not for public ears. It was quite interesting on how conversation went though. He went on counting his blessings that he had enjoyed throughout his career.
On sat, during the usual runs with my bosses, they were too talking about problems at work and strangely, they ended up talking about the blessings they had so far.
In the afternoon,I met up with one of my close friends and we were chatting about the org and how things are moving. We were a bit sad seeing most of our peers leaving for greener pastures and some of the unfortunate things happening to our peers and the people under us. Through chatting, I guess it was theraptic in a way where we can empathize with each other and through sharing we heal, i guess.
Like what the taxi driver did towards the end, we counted our blessings and concluded it has indeed be kind in most ways and in our lives, we were fortunate to have meet wonderful leaders that guide us along and also our present soulmates.
Remembered a show called "Wei Xiao Pasta" and the main slogan was to meet problems with a smile and it can be solved. Indeed, sometimes, I guess I have smile a bit more(thinking of the blessings) and maybe storms will become passing showers.
Have a good week, pals.
