Relationships Forum Chatter & Grey Matter

The first word forty years after Columbus? That too a biological name and not a 'real' word? No wonder the Puritans took more than a hundred years to find their way to New England. Lazy dogs. The guaiacum probably floated over by itself.

 

Hehe! Possibly! Back then, there was no Great Pacific Garbage Patch to hinder one brave log's dream to cross the Atlantic. Fievel Mousekewitz confiscated a bottle to cross, our Larry Guaiacum just availed his buoyancy skills.

That's the way it crumbles, log-wise!

....can't be done, because, there is more.
The first of the four noble truths of Buddhism is that "all life is suffering, pain, and misery." And this makes every DIL who is having a peaceful life with a loving DH, good health, kid(s) and no MIL anywhere near the homestead etc.. wonder whether she is having any kind of life at all.

 

Everyone who had been waiting for the phonecall (after what seemed like a good first date, or a girl-dekko) had gone on to feel this way.

 

First of all, I am so sorry @Rihana for being unclear in my posts.
Blame my English. It is still my 3rd or 4th language only. Looks like my vocabulary doesn't improve at all...

Let me try one more time....

For working people (be it a male or female), their office becomes their second home. Over the time, they would start developing an attachment towards their work/office and their colleagues eventually become their friends/family.
This happens when your office treat you back with respectfully.
Of course the lump sum pay is another reason. Particularly, happiness is when you are paid in dollars, appreciated by the big bosses for your achievements and recognized before the world for following your passion!!!
This doesn't happen to all. I was lucky enough to enjoy my passion - which happened to be my task at work. Thus I was able to perform it beyond my ToR; thus all the adornment all these while.
In those 6+ years, I never had hard feelings or disappointment at my work place except those last few weeks before my resignation. Even though I've been posted at different cities/countries under different bosses of the same organization, the feelings were similar.

I've worked for other organizations too. Apart from the salary pack, I felt no attachment towards the work with them.
They just remain professional tasks, and nothing beyond.

Eg: Cricket or acting is yet another career. These stars are professionals like us, and they are paid for their work. But some of them are very passionate about their work. That's shows in the way they perform. That's behind their success.
That's what they become emotional when they have to leave/move.

Like this, this particular office and the post is beyond a regular job for me. it is beyond updating the resume and applying.

To answer your questions.... I am already in a good post, and I have a great potential to grow in my career ladder down the line.
So, getting rejected from this office is not gonna make any difference to my present career path.
But not being able to follow my passion at my most fav place will definitely disturb me.
That's what my mind is thinking so much about this.

What you've suggested above applies to any general "job seeking" scenarios. \
In fact, I've been in such job hunts over the past few months; thus gone through all these procedures too.
Never once I've felt attached or detached with any of them.
Their YES and NO didn't make much difference, since I have always been confident about myself; thus knew I would secure some or the other job as I applied.

But this one is different

 

That made me smile, as I recalled the advice on how girls should gain a lot during pregnancy, as well as keep their prepartum weight gain as a defensive measure against just such sleep deprivation problems.
