So...
I try to make a difference
It may not be enough
But i really do try
One soul at a time
Someone said - you have a new and a large team at office. How do you evaluate them, how do you work with them ?
I replied -
I shall listen to them, hear them out. I shall let them form their own point of view. I will try to understand their version of work.
I'll let them face challenges. Let them face difficulties and problems on their own. Some will stand the test ... some will fall.
The wheat shall be separated from the chaff.
What then ? What will you do ? the question was shot back !
I will plant them back in the ground - provide them sunlight and water. Hopefully they will not wither and die...hopefully they will stand on their own.
Hopefully.
That's my way of helping - i don't know if it is the correct way of helping...but, it's my way of helping.
Am i on a mission to civilise ? Maybe yes, maybe not...I don't know.
I just feel that if i can impart a little bit of good to the people around me, it may help them lead a sightly better life...that maybe i touched them in a small way...that maybe i contributed to their life a little bit.
It could be as small as saying - Him and I vs Him and me. If they inculcate it in their vocabulary, they're richer for it.
It could be as small as giving a small thing of mine.If they use it, it will help them and i will feel that i contributed to their success a little.
Of course...I don't keep giving things away ,nor do i keep telling people about their grammatical mistakes. I do this with a small set of people. People whom i care about. People who probably listen to me.
I try to be environment friendly - i do admit, i could be better though. My small contribution towards the world i inhabit.
Am i looking for validation ?
Am i trying to contribute because i feel guilty about something ?
Was it something that i was taught, which lies in my subconscious ?
I honestly don't know.
I just try
