Are You Happy?

During my appraisal, my boss asked me if I am happy with my work. He felt that I lacked the zeal I used to have.

1. I come in at 9:30AM instead of 8:30AM.
2. I am not as patient with my users as I used to.

At the start of the year, I told myself that I will change but the thing is, it's still pending. Could it be that I am really not happy? When will I find job satisfaction?

hi salme. i was in a semi-same situation back there in sing. the difference is that i didn't lose the zeal to perform at work but i was always 'unhappy' being at work while leaving my baby with the yaya's care.

it was quite a long battle in my head, ie to quit or not to. thankfully, i am at peace now where i am.

just pray for guidance and let Him take you where He wants you to be.
don't be afraid to make a change.

take care.

i think we can always choose and decide to be happy. but being career women and working moms, i really feel for you. whatever it is that we decide, God will always be with us. =)

i say amen to the 2 comments given to you. You have a choice, but yet, remember always, one can never get all that he/she wants in life. You can be happy at home, being a stay home mom, but remember what sacrifices you have to tackle financially. So it's your priority. Others sacrifice $$ for the security of being a stay home mom. Learn to be content is the key, as aspostle Paul wrote in Phil 4:11-12. Whether in need or in abundance, be content. try to practice changing your mind frame, and find joy in whatever you do, no matter how hard it may be. I read "one cannot live a psitive life if one has a negative mind." ponder on it...and be thanksful in all circumstances.

Bebi A : Daddy, can you make me an airplane? Daddy : Later Ava, I am busy Bebi A : You always say you're busy, you're hurting my feelings... She then put her face down on the sofa. Drama queen!

At 5

Today is the eve of Dawter T's 5th birthday. I couldn't help but reminisce about how she grew up from this jaundiced baby that I had to leave in the hospital to a girl who is vibrant and full of questions and who wouldn't want to be left alone. She's Cinderella's number 1 fan but is now discovering Kim Possible and Totally Spies. She likes to play with the computer, she sometimes uses it to draw using MS Paint or to surf Barbie's website. She doesn't want to be called baby because she's now an older sister. She likes to sleep holding my hand. She loves scrapbooking with me and my friends. She's very good at doodling and was kidding my Mareng M that she'll have her own line soon. HeHe... She's even better at stamping than me. She likes school and doesn't want to skip it even if she's sick. She doesn't sleep early. She sleeps at 11pm (the earliest). She's a very picky eater. Takes her own sweet time to finish a meal. But, eats
