Balance

..such a aworld. and we must understand that it goes and comes along with a lot of things with it.


I had a great time with a so-called meeting today with a friend I've met at college. He's mature and quite intellectual and I admire him both for that. Now, the question is that would his judgements not 'contaminate' this beautiful project I'm working with and won't I get contaminated in the process because I would really have to work and deal with eeerrrr... certain people this friend of mine wants to give chances.


I don't mind giving chances. I do that. It's just that, the last time I have done so - it was abused by people who only wanted things for themselves. It's traumatizing. In our native language we can say in a way na NAKAKADALA. It's so hard to trust people again after what happened a year ago. Seriously.

People would always take what you have - by hook or by crook and they would always do something to drag you down. It's scary. But i took this risk today to trust someone and bank on his judgements. Why? Not because of second chances. But because it's a sacrifice worth a shot for a hundrer smiles that may come from little children that would benefit all these sacrifices of having to work, deal with and have sit-down coffees with certain people I would rather not sit next to anyway. I can be professional, yes. I can be.

Just don't push your luck. I forgive. I just don't forget easily. You see, trust is earned. Never demanded.


I took a risk today. It may balance everything. Now, let's see if it was a right decision.
