Tired but Acomplished and Happy
My workload never seems to end. I thought I could leave my office latest by 7 p.m. daily starting this year, yet I still got tied down with lots of work by 9 p.m. on most days. Coupled with my 'incurable' cough, I really felt very drained and tired everyday... I am losing weight now. :(
I didn't make any resolution this year, though I do have a goal as mentioned earlier. I am seeing my goal accomplishing as I prayed to God to make it true. So although I feel tired yet I feel accomplished and happy at work. :)
I had so many opportunities to touch the lives of people I spoke to daily. Example, today I spoke to one of my colleagues who wanted to resign due to work stress. In fact, his resignation letter was ready to be given to me. After listening to him for quite a long while, I shared with him my opinions and solutions. I was quite surprised that he told me he found me very different from all other managers he worked with before and he hoped I could be his mentor. He disclosed to me some personal things which he would not share with others. Thank God that he said he felt better after talking to me. He withdrew is resignation. Praise God!
It's time like this that I find my life worth living, that I have contributed to the happiness of others. Yes, it may seems that my happiness rest in the happiness of others just like in tonight's devotion title "How To be Happy" that mentioned the Ten Rules for Happier Living:
Give something away.:D
Do a kindness.
Give thanks always.
Work with vim and vigor.
Visit the elderly and learn from their experience.
Look intently into the face of a baby and marvel.
Laugh often—it’s life’s lubricant.
Pray to know God’s way.
Plan as though you will live forever—you will.
Live as though today is your last day on earth
