Blessings

Although the previous 2 weeks did not start out too well but nothing in essence is permanent. There is not one thing in this world that is not in a constant flux. And for this very reason when things are bleak, keeping this truth in mind can empower us with the ability to look beyond our current pain and suffering, to the future horizon with hope that things may change for better.

However, we have to be realistic here - though we can hope and work with our utmost efforts toward a better future, it does not necessarily guarantee one. Yet by doing nothing, resigning to the "fate" and living our lives in despair, is the most unkind thing we can ever do to ourselves, for that would simply implied we failed before we even tried. To surmise, there is no guaranteed success but failure is imminent if we do not even attempt at the betterment of our lives.

And so 2 week has gone by and being fairly fruitful in both material and spiritual sense. Materially fruitful as i went for the first job interview for a project manager role in a finance department (that may ultimately transform into a proper management reporting role in 2 years time) and sent out my resume to another headhunter from another HR agency who requested a latest copy of it.

On the other hand, i received spiritual blessings from Sister who dedicated some of her merits to me in good wishes that i will successfully land in a better job that will allow me to enjoy more time to improve my own spiritual life and health. She reminded me again that earning a lesser pay should not be a concern as long as one can make sure our health, both physical and mental are well taken care of and with time for spiritual developments.

No arguments with that especially not from me when i have used up all my sick leave last year and even had to cover some of the days that i'm sick with my share of annual leave.
