Monday blues

Dear God,

It's back at work again today. I hate coming back to the city again, I miss my family and my in laws so much. I know it's weird to say I miss my in laws but really, they are such nice people!

I was plotting ways to somehow return back to my hometown and earn my living there. I have to think of something soon.

Anyway, I had to soothe my sadness by telling myself, at least they are just 5 hours drive away...

Thanks. At least they are not a flight a way : )

A place called home

Dear God,

Ever since I got married, I tried my best to spare my time equally between my family and in laws every time I go home. My husband and I are from the same hometown, you see...coming to think of it, you already know that!

At first it was difficult, needed some time to get used to it all. Sometimes I felt like I was not spending enough time at home.

But this weekend, I feel that it all worked out well. I had enough time to spend quality time with my family, my inlaws and my husband back in our hometown.

It was perfect.

Thank you.

Road back home

Dear God,

I travelled back to my hometown with my husband last night. It was a lovely trip. The car behaved itself, the weather was perfect, no rain, no accident...

We reached home safely.

Thank you.

Colleagues

Dear God,



I transfered to a new team recently. Initially I was nervous and was afraid of being accepted and being able to handle the tasks given to me.



But my new colleagues are great and very helpful. My boss is also a very wonderful person. I love it here and I am motivated to work hard everyday.



It has been a long time since I last felt this way.



Thank you.

Concentration

Dear God,



I normally have a very short attention span at work. I work for 30 minutes, mind idles away for a while and then I continue again. It's really hard to me to get something done at one go but I did it today.



I managed to complete a task given to me in full concentration and as it was something very new, i learned a few things that will help me in the future.



Thank you :-)

Jam...Traffic Jam

Dear God,

It rained heavily last night and today morning. While everyone loves the rain and the cool weather that it brings and dream about being in bed in the morning, tucked warm in a blanket, i hate it. It brings gloom and casts a nasty colour in the sky. On the contrary, I love the sun. Nothing beats the warms of the sun's ray on my skin and the cheerful mood that it brings.

Anyway, since it rained today, the traffic lights were not working and the massive traffic jam that leads to my office started swelling by the hour. Most of my colleagues were late at least by an hour but since I stay nearby and walk to work, I reached on time.

Thank you.

A Promotion

Dear God,

I found out today that I was inline for a promotion but due to some decisions that I have made regarding my job, I was taken out of the consideration

but...

as my superior was telling me about it, I felt no sense of dread at all. I knew in my heart that the decisions that I made were right and I don't have any regrets.

I have grown up. I beleive in my choices now.

Thank you.

Childhood memories

Dear God,

I was at the bookshop yesterday when I spotted a book by my favourite author. I used to read her books when I was a little kid. The moment I saw it, I picked it up and brought it back home.

Before sleeping last night, I decided to read it and I was instantly transported to the land where pixies, fairies and elves roamed free.

It brought me memories of my childhood when I used to beleive that these strange creatures do exists and my simple innocent prayers to You that I would meet one of them in my backyard.

It reminded me of simpler times. A time so magical, so free, so beautiful...

It's been great.

Thank you.

A new beginning

Dear God,

It's the start of 2011. I spent my new year with my husband and his friends. It was a very quiet affair. We watched the fireworks on the eve and then headed out for a light supper.

Work starts tomorrow. It's the end of the new year holidays for me. How I wish it could be a little longer...but...

thank you. I have my husband by my side and a job to go to tomorrow.
