Work from Home
It's been a long time I haven't really jotted down my daily devotion here. I read through my old posts and I found many posts I wrote during some of my hardest times when being deployed to one of the spices islands. It actually feels really great to re-read those posts and realize where I am at now. How the tribulations have changed my life and my perspective. How my life has progressed. How everything turns out to be beautiful. It's amazing.
Today, we are still working from home due to Covid-19 pandemic. It's been almost two months. I prefer WfH to be honest. I don't really like: repetitive activities and journeys, shaking hands with other poeple, the feeling of being trapped in an office with no one of your age/mind-frequency around,spirit-less devotions, waking up early in the morning to commute, wild staring, and all the awkwardness. Well, I love to manage my own time in my own pace in order to deliver excellence outputs. I do love working from home. And. I think I do it quite well. The team are doing well. We all are learning and trying to do our best even with some flaws here and there.
I am also really devastated to lose Om Jev, one of the nicest colleagues at the office. He was one of the reasons I want to blend in and sit together at lunch with other friends. Rest in peace, Om Jev. You will always be remembered.
Actually, I have to finalise two drafts of MoU and one document at the moment. But, I really need to take a break, a deep breath, read a devotion, write, and pray. Thank you Lord for everything.
And, oh ya, during this WfH I have managed to learn new recipes (homemade pizza, pangsit, bakso tempe, tahu tek, skin remedy, etc). I also managed to keep the 50-day strike on Duolingo and started to re-learn guitar with youtube lessons. I am learning about financial management and emergency fund (yup, esp. during this uncertain period). And, I am thinking about mastering a new language by taking a professional online course, maybe? Let's see ;)
Well, this is it. See you again on the next therapeutic writing session, dear self.
I've got an hour to finalise these documents!

Finally you write again, after a long time. Anw, I don't like the feeling trapped too, can relate :)
