Lately I feel that my colleague has been growing onto me, or perhaps it's me onto her. But there was once a time I made a decision to continue working with the company because of some special people whom I felt had grown on to me. And recently, I'm beginning to feel the same way with another colleague. Younger than me and smarter than me in so many ways, I find myself looking forward more and more to going to work. Yes it is true that my co-workers hold much more value to me than my work or even, the salary. High salaries won't keep me for long in a demanding job if not for my direct co-workers. And I like the environment that my team has carved for itself. We are healthy and can voice out our concerns without fear and can easily point out each others' mistakes with no malice or spite but simply for the good of the other or the team. We look out for each other and have everyone else's backs. I am blessed all these years of my working career to be able to have experienced such teams wherein there are healthy exchanges to better each other. Each of us grow and develop because of the other. As it says, only diamond can sharpen diamond.
I am truly grateful for the colleagues I have at work. Those who surround me closely in my team and to the extended team and also those who sit physically near me. Sometimes I laugh a bit too loud but I know they are not annoyed by it. In fact they probably are amused by our antics, making silly jokes at each other over the cubis, throwing paper planes and tissue paper across, sharing tasty food, funny jokes and great music. We are a crazy bunch and I like my team and my co-workers a great big deal. They probably won't see this cuz it's my private blog but I just wanna thank each of them for being who they are and bringing their talents and their skill and most importantly their joy to this extended team.
Jesus is so good to me to place me in the company of such nice people who are my great colleagues. If not for them, the office would be such a drag and work would just absolutely frustrate me for no reason. Thank you Jesus for your generous blessing. They help me get past the weeks and each day flies by so quickly whenever we laugh hard and work equally hard. I can never be more thankful and grateful for each and every single one of them. May they be blessed too by my actions, words and my life. And I certainly hope that some of these relationships will grow into more than just colleagues, but friends, good friends. Thank you Jesus. Amen.
