The next phase
This is the next phase of life; life after 12 years of blood, sweat and tears in primary, secondary and JC. Life has to go on. People will change. Anyway, gaining valuable work experience has been quite satisfying. No doubt about it. You will get to meet all kinds of people, encounter different situations and experience it all most importantly. In the end, it will be worth the time and effort.
Life skills taught in school can finally be put into practice. Perserverance, a very widely used word to describe the qualities a person should possess, is especially very relevant. As the saying goes, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Once you possess this quality and focus on the ultimate goal, you will easily get through the day though work may be mundane and tiring at times. The most important thing is to use something as a source of motivation, anything will do as long as it helps you achieve your final goal. In this case, it is the sense of satisfaction knowing that you have granted someone else the opportunity to claim his money. At the end of the day, numerous people will benefit because of that little effort that you put in. How nice is that!
Now it is not a matter of how much you have done, but what you are doing it for. Purpose. That involves looking at things from a different perspective. The conventional thought may not be appropriate. For example, two people may do the same job but one drags his feet to the work place every morning whereas the other person comes in with a big smile on his face and a positive attitude. Why the contrast? Again it boils down to perspective and purpose. Sounds simple?
Looks like it will be in two weeks time. I'm sure lives will change. No doubt about it. Major decisions will have to be made which will ultimately determine people's future. There's only one bite at the cherry, so don't waste it.
God bless.
