Spirituality Can Wait...

I was in an eternal dilemma for quiet some time now... i was noticing some changes in me... the intrusion of feelings like fear into the system and it has infiltrated to such an extent that i was feeling like an eighty year old. I noticed my reluctance to drive over a 60kmps mark and my concerns over the onset of rain before or during a trip... what happened to me.. even if its getting older or getting mature .. why the hell am i being numb and letting it happen.... this change may bring peace but is not bringing any happiness more over its making me feel lonely... 

Spirituality can wait... lemme resist this change and fight for happiness...

The Extraordinary

I have seen different people in my career at UAE, i have been dealing with workers as an intermediary between them and the management. Take their problems to management and implement management decision.. yes it was a tedious job...

1. Shajahan : He was working in my dept as a worker. I was stunt at the way he speaks English, very fluent. I got interested in this person. I spoke to him and i came to know that he worked in an embassy before coming to UAE for job. The work he was doing was really stressful and tiring but he was always enthusisastic. He had the drive to move forward. He finally landed up with an additional responsibility of teaching other workers English language, a non profit making effort by that noble young man. Truly inspirational.

2. Mohan : He was a grinder (Worker) he had interest in computers, drawings etc. He bough a computer , installed autocad and started learning on his own he requested his supervisor to get training in technical stuff but his request was turned down. He persisted attended trainings during his vacation and came back with certificates. Tried to work his way up again.. again his request was turned down by supervisor.... He took a drastic step made drawings on his own and met the CEO . He was permitted to do training in QC dep as unpaid apprentice for 2 months. He struggled his way up and finally landed up in R&D dept as methods engineer.

Soooo many people with the will and drive to excel and successful in doing it.. this world is large enough for those who want it so...
