Gratitude 5.

And finally it’s the last day of my Gratitude Challenge and after keeping this challenge for a week, I do realise that there are many things that we can be grateful for.  But most of the time we are just too pre-occupied with hatred and prejudice that we fail to recognise that this world isn’t too damn bad after all.  Amid all these mess that’s happening out there, we can always find something that we are thankful about.

1. Work today has been good, and even though I was rather hard-pressed for time, I managed to do most of the things that I have set out to do before flying off to Chengdu for a working trip.

2. All the logistics for the working trip seems to be in place and I think I’m ready to go.  Things have gone smoother than I expected and it is always something to be grateful about.

3. A bit of rain to wash away the heat that has been building up for the past week or so.  It’s crazy that the temperature is still above 30 degrees even though we are now in September, so having that bit of rain is always good.

And for the final time, I am just going to nominate some of my colleagues at VTC… so Prosper, Thalea and Eva… 3 things to be grateful for the next 5 days… and I’m outta here!

Gratitude 4.

Wow, time flies.  This is already the fourth day of the Gratitude Challenge.  The lovely thing about this challenge is that when I look at my life everyday, it turns out that there area always things to be grateful about, and sometimes finding which 3 particular things could be quite hard.  OK anyway, here goes…

1.  Work today was tedious – I had a long meeting at Tsing Yi in the afternoon which ended at about 8:30 p.m.  So by the time I got home it was past 10 o’clock.  Gratefully I still managed to have dinner at home which Mum had prepared.  Having home-cooked food is something that I always look forward to.

2.  As I was in my Wan Chai office this morning, the prospect of heading to Tsing Yi for the meeting was never an exciting one.  I was grateful that another colleague managed to give me a lift, which save me from the daunting task of travelling to Tsing Yi on public transport…

3.  A scheduled meeting tomorrow evening has been postponed, leaving me with some time to catch up on things that I was supposed to have done a while ago but haven’t got the time to…

For today, I am going to nominate 3 of my friends in the local football circle, namely Jordan, Edmund and Tom.  So guys, 3 things to be grateful about for the next 5 days…
