It is fun to be working as both an administrator at some level, and also a teacher. I probably am the worst teacher on earth, as proven by the "no-incentive-for-me-because-my-students-said-i-am-not-a-good-teacher" condition on my evaluation, but I just don't care anymore. I detest office politics, and I know that this doesn't help the non-profitable organization which I am currently working in. I enjoy liaising with people, and am happy when I see people receiving one thing or another.
It's a constant struggle for me at the moment, as I'm not perfect when everybody expects me to know what they want. And it is worse when people do not cooperate but complaining constantly about stuffs. For the past few weeks, my weekends are all taken away. How "wonderful" that is!!! And of course, this becomes extremely lonely, as I go against the flow of the world. I finally understand how tough it is for the salmons to swim against the current from the ocean back to where they were born just to lay eggs and die. I think it must have taken them so much energy and effort to just continue swimming to the origin. Us, as human, are we doing the same thing? Returning to where we really belong to? Or do we continue swimming in the vast ocean, hoping our original home will come to us like a droplet of raindrop?
As we live our lives, have we ever thought that there are more than just this? If you do, I'd like to invite you to ponder further. Is there more life than this? Are you willing to swim against the current to where your origin is?
