Action is Eloquence.

Thoughts in this blogosphere can just get lost from our memories. Like Najah Nasseri, I am hijacking the same thing from Living In Dreams and his commentator, Zue. It is something I long to express but I was without the gift of enough vocabularies. This is for memories.

Sometimes, as human beings, we absorb too much. Too much data, too much
information, too many opinions, too much complexity in business and/or politics.
Or, even in our personal lives.

We listen too much, we give too much, we
don't pause enough to ask where we're going with things. We live on instinct -
reacting to things that are happening around us. We live on routine. We drink in
cynicism like it's a natural drink from the cup of life, we're tasting. And
sometimes, we live on feelings - and we stop thinking. We're so busy with what
we want, that we stop asking ourselves what we need.

We don't spare enough time to listen to ourselves. We're too busy listening to others - and giving them the benefit of the doubt. Making sure that they're not short of what they need or want - devoting ourselves to their satisfaction or happiness. Most times, unreciprocated.

Have you realized that sometimes, the more time
you spend with others - you lose a bit more of yourself? Sometimes, you
compromise so much of yourself and what you stand for, in order to be inclusive,
that you dilute who you really are.

attended a course last 2 weeks..Customer Relation Mgt.. one of the things he told us, was we often neglect the 3rd category of customer.. ie ourself... we try so much to please the rest of the world.. and we ignore our coreself.. anyway he recommended that we start having some TTM, time to myself... quiet, solitary time.. just for your mind and body to relax.. funnily enough .. i find myself working and responding better after TTM sessions.. kewl kan..

If not for doing just that, by getting out from burying myself in work and other escapades, I wouldn't be as free and as happy as I am now :)

Alhamdulillah!
