counting my blessings

"the time when you choose to give up is normally the moment right before you success -- unknown" few days back, when i was back in the office rushing for accounts on my own, this phrase just, happened to come true. it was slightly after two, while i was walking back to office after lunch with a cuppa on my hand, tried to get in from the side door to avoid the smokers at main. i pushed the glass door. once. twice. third push, harder. the glass door remained firm. then i thought, "fine, that's it. i'll just walk pass the bunch of smokers at main and hold my breathe till i got through". so i turned and started to walk, and that's when somebody tapped on my shoulder. i turned around, a stranger. he smiled at me and said, "push again, harder, like you really mean it." God knows how it worked. i actually had the door opened. it was never locked in the first place. it was me, gave up too soon without pushing it again with harder ef...

six months into the job, and i finally come to learn the most precious lesson about it. "work will never end. life will." look back at it, does it worth working your ass off, so hard, so negligent of everything else? few days back while i was surfing through the internet browsing through some inspirational quotes, there was this one line that caught my attention. it asks "if i take away your occupation, what else do you have?" and it struck my mind that i been indulging myself in this workaholic mood, thinking that's how it should be, while it's totally not! remember, for a family, and maybe that few friends, you are irreplaceable. but for that one job, if you quit, they can always find another person to sit in and get it done. not to say that work is not important, but think again, what is the purpose of working so hard, ignoring everything else, and few years down the road, you flash back, and realize there's nothing else but work, and you'...

in lay man terms it says "a case in which the constant desire to have everything in order is a disorder." i was diagnose with it, not clinically tho. friends used to make fun of how i kinda insist of using just one brand, how i tied up all the candies wrapper into knots, how i drink only certain coffee, bla bla and bla. so yeah, sometimes, i do feel like i have it, the OCD symptoms. but then again, i actually think that everyone of us is somehow born with it. stop raising your eyebrow on me. i meant, don't you have something that you really really REALLY just wait IT and nothing else can replace? like really, just that one and only one thing. i just happen to have the list a lil longer. luls as we grow up, we start to compromise a lot of things because something else is more important, or at least that's how we justify it. a book, a movie, a date out, a trip, a meal, an hour of sleep, or sometimes, somebody. and that's what makes the remaining ones, the on...
