So another helpful colleague has decided to leave and be a housewife instead at the moment. It's a bittersweet sort of farewell. Bitter in the sense of there's more work to do at workplace after she left, sweet is that she's getting married to a doctor and she is granted with a wish that at the nearest 3 months time she can choose to stay jobless. So Maxis as a whole, celebrated Kumuta's farewell at Tower Regency Hotel @ Cafe 6 on last friday, dated 24 July 2009. Nice place though with the interior and the food is unbelievably edible and they tasted real good too. Hahaha. Kumuta@ KUMU-KUMU@ Kumujii, I am going to miss you heaps eh!
Personally, I don't fancy farewell and I think no one does. However, in life we do need to cope with that and it happens so often that at times, we struggle so much to learn the fact that we really need to let go of certain things and people who seem to cross over in our lives.
Life's PaceLife has a way of accelerating as we get older.
The days get shorter, our list of dreams gets longer.
All we have to show for it is a litany of I'm going to, I plan on,
Someday when things are settled down a bit.'
Because we cram so much into our lives,
We tend to even schedule our headaches.
We live on a diet of promises to ourselves
When all the conditions are perfect, tell ourselves lies
Have you ever watched kids playing on a merry-go-round
Or listened to the rain lapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
Do you run through each day on the fly?
When you ask 'How are you? ' Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done, do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores running through your head?
Ever told your child, 'We'll do it tomorrow.'
And in your haste, not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch? Let a good friendship die?
Because you didn’t just write or call to say 'Hi?
Life is like an unopened gift....Thrown away
When you worry and hurry through your day,
Life is not a race to live at such a frantic pace
Take it slower, hear the music before the song is over.
Listen to the words that make you’re your heart quiver
SEE the snow in the mountains, in the cold you shiver
Watch a toddler learn in a moment of discovery
See their joy and emulate what you see.
In the school of life each day is a classroom of
Experiences we need to develop our selves.
Stop, slow down and love, make the world
Around you a better place to live and be lived in.
