2 day before CNY

Somehow, this year Chinese New Year. I was really in the "mood" probably was because, not only the usual spring cleaning, the usual big spending on the CNY gifts to my in-laws and my parents. I guessed i am more appreciating on the bonus given before the CNY. You see, every year, the company would tried to give us bonus before the CNY starts, just for us to have enough to spend during the CNY.

Given the economic down turn, recession, bad debts, etc etc. It would be god grace if you still had a table in the office that said your name. Most, don`t even talk about bonus or for some, even 13th months pays. Even though, as prudence as the company want to, it still does not avoid the cutting of staffs in other dept, but luckily our dept was spared.

Looking at the difficult time ahead and having a job that could cover the expenses of our daily activities, the pressure that builded in our work. I guessed this coming CNY come in just the right time. For us to gathered our loved one, family members, best friends to formed a collective and positive energies in us, so that we could carried it in us, thru these uncertain times.

Dear Friends,

Life is never easy, it is also unpredicatable. but all of us have a choice! we choose what we want and how we feel. Yes, we know different choice we made in life, often comes with different consequences, be it good or bad. it is still a choice make by you.

so have faiths my friends, when we are at the lowest, the only way is Up! it does not get any worst than this now.

may peace upon you during this lousy and tough time. Have a properous Chinese New Year 2009.
