All Work & No Play Makes Jack A Dull Boy

Yes, I'm back after such a long time - thanks to my busy work and office life. To all of you who love sitting and hitting the keys 24/7- this isn't what you should be reading. Hey, I have nothing against my job or anyone's , this is my personal opinion.

I'm sure all working people would have come across varieties of species in your working environment- the hard workers, the slow ones, the workers who have fun, the ambitious employees, the 'pain-in-the-ass' workers, the so called 'ass-kissers'... yes loads of 'em. I have seen many and yes, you all must have too. For all those of you who haven't- you surely will. Here's a link to a poem that I really liked. [link]

There is something disturbing in a few. There are people who love their jobs s much that they fail to see the other beautiful things in life. Now don't get me wrong here, work is important but never more than family. So many of them sit late, work extra hours neglecting their closed ones. And I really can't understand WHY? Get a life people! I have made it a rule in my life that I will never sacrifice the time I keep for my family to be invaded by my work. The world has made people think that they have to keep competing with every living soul on planet earth to be someone in life. That's crap..you can be someone by focusing on your family and close ones for a start. Why work on a Saturday when you can take your kid out to a beach and have your wife holding your hand, or have a laughter filled get together with people whom you forgot even existed during your 5 days of bee life. Never give up your family for a measly good name or extra pay.

I know so many people who just work their entire life away from family and country and come for just 30 days to spend with their home. I just keep wondering what do they really earn in life? Their kids hardly love them and it takes a while for them to even understand ' hey, it's my dad/mom'. I know for some people its different and they just want to provide a better future for their kids.

Don't ever keep your work above home. Always spend how much time you ever can to bond with your household. Never say a no when they ask you to take them out during weekends and don't ever unleash your stress and anger on them. I know my dad used to do this and now we are so closely knit that we have to talk to each other every day no matter where we are. And I want to have an exact same life. Do the work assigned to you instead of being overtly smart and everything will click at the right time.

In the hope of winning something don't lose everything you've been gifted.
