The utmost tough task now in life is spending quality time. Taking for granted the leisure, the freeness of time management before. When its gone, felt the pinch. Human, i am. Always in such manner isn't it. Never learn from lesson.
It is saddening to actually realise the time flying by so fast, leaving not time to savor the moments. Late night chats becomes a ritual of just saying goodnights. Chatting becomes intense especially with time constraint. Social gatherings are like small business meetings. Everything is cut short. Short of quality of life.
The word quality of life made an impact in my life when i was working at Hospis Malaysia. It held an immense meaning towards it. When one goes through a life threatening illnesses, the importance of quality in ones life plays a tremendous part as a whole. Is it only when diagnosed with life limiting illness? An obvious answer to the question, i would assume.
Spending time. Quality time. Slipping through the fingers, worst when unknowingly. It dawned to me when the lunch is cut so short, leaving us no time to let time take its course. Never realised. Maybe, finally, it is part of growing up, part of maturing, part of stepping into the working world. Job's cool, but looses much. Worth it? I don't know.

i guess the both of us are feeling the same thing in a way or two... we are all in a learning experience about life and career... climbing the high ladder of success is definately not easy... it consumes our time and energy. in a way i'm missing the working life i had in my previous company... but i know i'm not going to be in this firm forever... i'm in a process of achieving my goals... so all i can tell myself when i'm "full" is this is a learning process, a road to success and i have to be patient for patient will lead me to my goals in life. hope you will feel the same too... :)
joanna, its "...i have to be patient for PATIENCE will lead me to my goals in life..."
