Bliss
Sitting here at 1:30am at my kitchen table recollecting the hectic event I went through today.
I'm entering my 2nd week at my new job and today is the first I got home past midnight. Nevertheless, I feel satisfied, belonged, and part of a greater world than myself.
My boss is running a big project in conjunction with renown musicians, composers and singers from Japan, to support the work of the restoration of Tohoku earthquake and Tsunami victims. Well, part of it related to my job is that we supplied in house designed t shirts to raise fund for this cause. Another part of it is to support this event which isn't exactly related to my job.
But all I can say now, after such a crazy day is that I'm really happy to be part of this team that consist only of my boss, a business manager and myself - the designer. Though only the 3 of us, which I am just a small part of it all after joining this company, together with many strong parties, the event was a success and I almost teared looking at how much we can do to help the helpless.
I may not be able to volunteer and be present in Japan, nor am I capable of putting together such a big project with a big vision. But I selflessly poured myself into the task that I'm given today and the rest of the week, which is to coordinate these clothes and make a good sales! The result today has put smile on the team's faces.
Remember all that I've went through in soul searching and landing on a job and job environment that I'm happy with? As far as where I am now after a week in this company, I think I can only be grateful, and there might be nothing else that can replace that - probably not even my big migration dream which is at the top of the list.
Thank you God for giving me a really humble and kind hearted boss and manager. The only thing that I wished for in my new career path is to be happy... and I am now. I don't know what will happen when the real deal kicks in, but so far I'm in the flow that allows me to unleash my potentials and positive to my well being. I do not have those fear like I use to have in a china-man mentality surrounding but able to voice my thoughts and enjoy each other's partnership in the team.
