Do Love your Job

Thea May 24th, 2009

Salary and passion are two most considered once we involve in a job. There are those who disregard the passion as long as they are paid well. Meanwhile, sometimes people also prefer the passion they have in the job, even the salary is not as big as they expect. For the later, satisfaction on the profession they choose is priceless. The luckiest is they who do the job they love and paid well.

Love what you do and you will grow the passion on it!. That’s what’s suggested to people who choose their job because of the salary. It’s so pathetic once we do what we don’t love. Big salary even doesn’t compensate the satisfaction we get. On the other hand, economic reason often compels professional who get lower salary to search another job with higher salary, regardless the job is that they don’t like.

So how to deal with that? For me as long as the job is the one you really have passion to, you have to strive for that. I believe when we do what we love and like, we will perform to the highest limit and gives huge contribution to others. When we give the best performance to our company and institution, it definetely we have a capital to bargain with our manager to get higher position for higher salary. The career path for you will be smooth.  What about for those who work for the big salary? Not many people as lucky as that group. At least they have what others don’t and they have to be grateful for that. How to be grateful? Love the job you do and try to nurture your passion on it. When you do that sincerely, everything will be light and easy.

I do grateful because I work on things that’s more or less related to my educational background, even I join in to Telco company. And for the salary, thanks God it’s more than enough. I love the job, I love to make friends with counterparts from other countries and the most important I can keep practicing my English, written or oral.

What about you? Do you love your job?

The Most Precious Gift of My Life

Thea May 19th, 2009

My birthday this year will be remembered in my life time. Not only because this is the first birthday as a wife and with my hubby near me, but also because I got the most precious birthday gift in my life.

I could see my baby’s heartbeat in my birthday. The length now reaches 1.5 cm. It is so unbelievable for me as there’s a small tiny creature inside my tummy. I never mind dealing with mild vomiting every time I have my meal. Everything I would do as long as it is for the healthy of my baby. Amazing!!

Being a pregnant woman is one of the step of my life and I am so happy that it doesn’t take a long time for us to have a baby. By Allah permission, within 7 months ahead, I will deliver my child and nurture him/her. Growing and nurturing them are not an easy job. Children are the divine gifts from God. We take the responsiblity of taking care of them, teaching them good values and fulfilling their soul with good virtues. We are the one who will be the role model and we can’t just behave as we like. Children will grow their respect to us and we as parents should feed their soul.

I learn a lot from my friends at office. Most of them are young couple with one or two children. Listening to their story teaches me so much thing. I can get the lesson learned and I wish I can apply to my children later.

Having a baby inside my tummy makes me enthusiastic. This baby really completes my life. I love u my lil sweet angel, even when you’re not born yet:-*

Hubby’s Support for Pregnant Wife

Thea May 3rd, 2009

What a husband can do for his pregnant woman? Many things. I remind husbands everywhere just in case you read this blog, any kind of courage and support for your wife during her pregnancy, even it’s small thing, indeed very matters.

The support can be in many kind of forms. My hubby for example, he never forgets warning me to have milk intake three times a day, paying attention to my menu or reminding me if I have had the folat acid or not. He takes me to he office and picks me up when it;s already after hour. If we pass the “wavy” road, he always slows down the speed to minimize the shocking to my lower tummy, where our baby sleeps in.

When we are on bed , he talks to our baby because we believe that the communication link between us and the baby has existed. That just makes me happy to have supportive husband like him. Then, he always updates me with any kind of information about the pregancy. Pregancy sites now become his fave.

Ever since we knew that we’re going to have a baby, his attention to me has been dwendling. And that makes me very happy for any support from him is very important.
