Life: it's a journey. In each problem we encounter in this journey, we keep burying ourselves on the problem and not how we can solve it. Moreso, we keep looking on its negative effect, neglecting the thought that problems carry with them good things, even realizations.
These have encouraged me to mull over the situation I'm in right now. Yes, i may not be happy with my work but, looking at it in a clearer and broader perspective, I realized, it has a purpose. It has something to say. Lately, did I think that it has inculcated lessons in life which are vital to my personal growth.
Being in a boring and drowsy working environment led me to the thinking that maybe, I am more of an outgoing person. I want to explore things and learn things through own experiences outside the box. I want to travel and go out, reach out to people, mingle with them, talk with them, even here their problems. I never wanted to be confined here, not forever!
The write-ups which are assigned to me made me see that sharing my knowledge through writing is not enough. Instead, I want to share it in a more direct way, and that's by teaching. I realized that my passion for teaching has not subsided, it has always been with me. But I was too busy looking at things and one of which is the idea of being an ideal DevCom practitioner. I failed to see that teaching can be a great form of development communication.
Finally, I've realized that it is important to always consider things before making decisions. i hope it's not too late.
