as much as a lot of things should be depressing me right now, i am choosing to be happy. a lot of things are happening that are not favorable, if not downright unpleasant and unwanted.
work, for one thing, has become a roller-coaster ride gone awry. by that, you'd think i'm exaggerating. but no. it has indeed become the weirdest place on earth. there have become new policies, restrictions and people who i cannot fathom as to why those things happened. sorry to say, boss, if you're reading this. i have been dedicated to my job in the company for the last 5 years. 5 YEARS! most of the things promised me years ago have gone to naught and some benefits i had were retracted. in its place, doubts to an upward career path. i'm not ungrateful though. there are some things that the company has given like the 5pm off in place of my favorite flexi schedule. (i hated it when they told us no more flexi schedule but like all lowly employees, i did not have a choice!)
this morning, it took me the whole ride to the little big man's school before i decided if i wanted to go to work or not. coz i honestly, did NOT want to.
i do not wish to enumerate anymore because, like i said, i'm choosing to be happy. i will look forward to a better day today. maybe clean my table and start fresh or something.
or maybe, i'll go home by lunchtime.
Man is fond of counting his troubles but he does not count his joys.
If he counted them up as he ought to,
he would see that every lot has enough happiness provided for it.
~Fyodor Dostoevsky
