My life used to comprise of 4 areas namely:
-Church
-Family
-Work
-Studies
In the past, I'll always shared that work is the one that consumes me most. Mainly because of people issues- collegues, superiors, parents.. Now I that I have completed my part time studies (officially submitted my last assignment on 1 Oct yay!), probably I should be feeling more relaxed, but I haven't been feeling it too.
You see, the other areas of my life have now naturally readjusted itself. But that being said, I'm still thankful that I've now got more time to work around the other areas.
Currently, work is the easiest! Surprisingly! I give thanks for my time in mylc 2014 that helped me to rethink work. Things hasn't been easier since then, but it really helps with the clearer mind. Points I remind myself as I continue to work with the greatest in the kingdom of heaven:
-Do I show unconditional love?
-Do I show unlimited care?
-How do I sustain unflinching commitment?
That being said, major changes are going on at the workplace. 3 out of my 7 colleagues are leaving. They are my supervisor (S), a part time teacher (PTT) and aunty who really dotes on me! So who are the ones remaining? That's me, an experienced senior teacher (ST) who just joined us this year, 2 other new chinese teachers who just came (in Jul and Sept) and are struggling to cope and aunty who's the cook.
I don't know where will these womanpower changes lead to, but I've set my mind not to be overly affected by them.
Then again, S, PTT, ST and I are in a whatsapp group. In that group, all the negativity prevails and it's hard to keep my stand. The ways of my superior (SP) are often mind boggling and the teachers dislike it. What makes it worse is that she makes things bad for people who are leaving and keeps the ST in the loop of twisted truths. SP thinks that we don't communicate and we ought to believe her one sided stories individually but she's got it all wrong. There's so much going on behind her back that makes it all so complicated.
In addition, I'm supposed to pretend I don't know about things but actually I do. Do you get a sense of the complexity of things?
But then again, this is the simplest of all now.
