The Best is Yet to Come
Today marked a significant day in this season of my life. This day may not seem remarkable to others, but it will be a day I will not forget.
It has been five months since I relocated and started a new career in Singapore. Time flies and I have pretty much adjusted to the working lifestyle here. Everyone who is close with me would know very well that I am not an early bird. I used to wake up only 15 minutes before my work start, officially at 9.00 a.m. So you could anticipate I was always late for work. Now I can proudly tell everyone that I am early rise. It is so refreshing to wake up earlier, take a hot shower and spend devotional time with Him. I enjoy the early conversation with Him and enjoy the bonding I start building with Him. It was never the same like before.
I am truly grateful for all the people He has surrounded me with, whether people with nice, nasty, good or kind personality. But above all, I really like to thank a person who gave me the opportunity to work and start afresh in Singapore, a foreign and sometimes could be quite an intimidating place to be due to the demanding working environment. This person is my ex-boss. As today marks his last day with the organization, it was quite emotional to accept the fact that he will not be sitting in front of me anymore. I still remember when he broke the news to me back in three months ago, he apologised to me as he could not be here to take care of me anymore. I am very well aware of the corporate cultures, with people resigning is just part and parcel of life. The time when I can’t hold my tears was when the memories flash back of what he said to me, asking me to take care which I can truly feel the words were from the bottom of his heart. Likewise, I wish him all the best in everything he does. Like he said, our status has been upgraded from colleagues to friends which is another level higher.
The best is yet to come, for you, for me and for everyone.
