Dispensable
The past few weeks, if not days, has shown me a lot of things (that I may have known but choose to deny it...haha) of myself and the people around me.
I always have this thought for my job or rather my career that we are always dispensable. Work is work, it will always be there whether we do it or not. so we are always replaceable at anytime. I have experienced this before when I see how my interns are able to just perform the task that I given to them. challenge after challenge, they did it with grace. and it was a wake up call for me, then we are dispensable. nothing is for certain. with just a click of the fingers, we can be replaced. and therefore, it brings me to my humble side....of always wanting to teach others to do more than what they are suppose to do. a lot of times, these are taken in the wrong way, i.e. that i'm showing off for teaching them, for me assuming that they don't know anything and would need me to teach them how to do it. yes, these kind of feedback and reactions always bring negativity to me, and it takes so much perseverance and strength to ignore these and just do what you are suppose to do.... i may suffer the negativity, the anxiety, the struggle, but at the end of the day...it is all worth it..as it makes me who i am today. it makes me realize my worth and makes me see that i can really do more than what i thought i can...
and indeed, life is really too short to sit and contemplate on the past, or to think about how and what,. just know what to do, and do it. a risk to take, but if you do not take the risk, then you will never know where it leads you or how far you can actually go in life. have faith in yourself, if not in God that everything happens for a reason.
So help me God. Amen.
