Women to Women
Woman to Woman Encouragement
Someone will always be smarter. Their house will be bigger. They will drive a better car. Their children will do better in school. And their
partners will fix more things around the house. So let it go and love
you and your circumstances.
Think about it. The prettiest woman in the world can have hell in her heart. And the most highly favored woman on your job may be unable to have children. The richest woman you know - she's got the car, the house, the clothes - might be heartbreakingly lonely.
So, love you. Love who you are right now. Tell yourself, "I am too blessed to be stressed."

A nice forward email at this time of my private and professional life. I have been incredibly toxic for the past month, and sometimes I feel giving in to too much pressure.
HB and I had a brief talk about the problems in the office. I poured my pressure and cried, because HB told me everything would be OK. He said it's OK to cry and I just couldn't stop the tears from falling down. This is just so tough. I was crying because of too much pressure. I apologized naturally, and he said, it's ok because it was not the first time he saw me cry. For some reason, I cried more....
It's just too tough, I'm hardly coping up with my class. My VBMS dev is giving me headaches. I don't have a TL. CRM strategy is changing everyday. I'm taking care of 17 team leads for that. Politics in the exec level. My regional responsibilities. Sustain.
I've been buying packed lunches at 7-11, isn't that the most awful thing to do?! My house is a total mess. I'm longing for more time in bed.
But then again, I still should be glad I have work. I have money to pay for good food and good wine. I feel the warmth of summer. I spent my first (actually both our first) hanami this year at a meeting room in 30th flr. He's never let me down. He's been my source of strength of late. Frank knows my situation. He's been a good boss in a way, I guess. IT has understood me and I guess somehow, they know what I'm going thru. Snojima has been really nice to me. I've got this far in my Accounting Class. 1 more week and it's over. I got Agdie's approval to be here. I'll have Lanye here soon for CRM. I just visited Ate, that was a refresher. Ito-san has been supportive.
One thing I'm learning is that in life, there's no such thing as perfect plan. We have to cope up with life everyday as it changes upon us, changing us as well in the process. It has been tough. It will continue to be, but then I need to just hang in there, minute after minute and believe that God allows thing to happen for his purpose.
I have nothing to do but believe, accept and live!
