Screeech!

Okay, now that's better. Allow me to catch my breath please. Whew. Things have been busy busy busy for me the past few weeks and though I'm still in the thick of it, I just want to drop by here and satisfy that part of me which desires to write a blog entry.

It's been a month since my last blog and I still haven't written anything despite the fact that my mind overflows with things, places, people, and thoughts I want to share with you. Equally overflowing perhaps is my in-tray which, for some reason or inspiration, I have the compulsion to get it over and done with as quick as possible. And so I will indulge with a few minutes of borrowed time to give an update.

The good news is I've never been happier at work, at least here in my present employment. I already know a lot of people and I have a good working grasp of how the business operates which is actually quite exciting. The work that I am currently doing is perceived by my as important (now, that's crucial) and I have gained enough confidence to go through my work day dealing with clients. All in all, I'm happy with work and what happier is that this happiness is not because of monetary satisfaction (isn't that great?). I remember as a child, I on my own realized that I'd only be happy if I am contented and yes, that's where I am now. Of course, being content right now doesn't mean there is a lack of desire to be better. It's more like this - I like it where I am now and I am not miserably hoping to be some place else - which doesn't mean that I can be happier. I am just grateful for the blessings that I have. Come to think of it, it was when I realized that blessing are a gift and not a matter of right did I allow peace and contentment enter my heart. It is really a great feeling to be grateful to Him.
