A Good Reminder
Once again, I forgot that I’ve got everything I need at hand.
Since I got the probation notice, I was focusing too much on what I couldn’t change. I resisted to feel better, creating more unnecessary stress. Dah.
It’s all my attitudes that can change every thing. My life had been so well that I made myself too accustomed to it to remember that life consists of full of crap.
And yet, there were many tools that were right in of me to use in order to deal with those hardships, but I was blind. Again, dahh.
I stopped agonising about my situation at work. I bought myself a pink vase that caught my eye at a flower shop in the building where I work. Felt more pinkish. Got tulips in the same colour.
Hey, this is the very first time I bought flowers for my desk after working there for almost 8 years. I hate working for my office so much I neglected to take good care of myself. I realised I needed more than I needed for home.
I worked hard for the last few days. I know I am leaving the office sometime this year, but I’d like to finish what I need to do. That is, to me, self-care rather than going on a binge of indulgence.
At 5 o’clock today, on getting out of the building, I could smell the flagrance of Winter Daphne flowing with comfortable spring breezes. Felt good about myself.

There’s a cool story in Hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy about learning the secret of how to fly: you get a running start and jump off a hill and momentarily forget that you are falling.
