Ever since I attended the talk last Sunday on work-life balance, I've been thinking about it and asking the older young adults that I know about their stand on this. As expected, the answers are varied. I think the key determinant of these differneces is not so much the age or gender, but the industry that the person is in.

The people I've asked so far are people holding the same faith as me. No point asking non-christians coz in my opinion, no God = no meaningful purpose in work, or in anything at all. LOL. Anyway, I have a friend who is in the same line as me. Her work is her life and her life is her work. I also ahve another friend who seperates time for work from time for family, friends etc. Another friend who is a free lancer (his interest in work changes quite frequently), is still seeking God when it comes to his calling in his career.

My conclusion for now is, I am bloody confused, and who am I to judge who is better than the other anyway? I am still thinking about it and hoping to mould a lifestyle that is meaningful and non-hurtful to those that matter to me.

Anyway, work has been rather fruitful. I am glad I am able to share my personal experience about how God has impacted my life, with my clients. But fundamentally I believe actions speak louder than words. I am still learning to be more patient, empathetic and discerning. Less ego and less clown-like. Everyday is a learning experience.

Besides that, I also realised today that my stamina is really really really TEROK! I was having an appt with a friend today and it lasted for about 3 hours. I was so drained during and after the session and I even felt that I was losing my voice. If I rem correctly, I was somewhat panting as I did the sales presentation and as I answered her queries. And I am only 23 this year. How can right?!

Many things to do tmr, including exercise in the morning. May I defeat the snooze enemy, the hp alarm clock! Good blessed night!
