I will appreciate a 2 day permission to be absent from work sir. My sister will be getting married. I haven't finished ehen my boss shouted...who will cleats the files on your table? who will do this and that? I'm sorry you cant go. I felt very bad but important...
One day, we lost a colleague of ours. Everybody was summoned, as the speaker addressed other employees who were sobbing, A minute silence to honour her he said. And in less than 30minutes, he said may her soul Rest in Peace, Amen. You can all go back to your work. Then i asked my boss who will clear her table and do all she was doing. He smiled and said, "Someone will resume with us next week to take her place. I used to think I was irreplaceable but this thought me that if i were the one who just died, someone else woukd resume to clear the files.
Hmmmm!!! to those who shout at people at work and makr them feel irrelevant, be careful, You are just a colleague.
To those who act in church like without them things can't be done properly, ask Elijah, God had over 7000 better prophets or servants waiting to step in.
To those who are pompus and feel the world revolves around them and should be treated with so much respect they don't give to others, go ask Nebuchadnezzar, he was disgracefully humbled.
To those who are so disrespectful to constituted authority by virtue of knowledge, experience and status etc watch out you will be on the side of authority soon; expect more than what you have done/given because it will always come back to you.
Someday you will go...
(Death, Retirement, Resignation, Promotion, Transfer, Relocation etc) and guess what? work will continue!
Church wil wax stronger, family like water will find its level or course.
Persons/friends will adjust well in good time.
That thing you think cannot be done without you will not die nor suffer.
It is like military barracks...
Soldier go Soldier comes but barrack/Military base remain. They might miss your ideas, but trust me, you are not IRREPLACEABLE
Experience has shown that when your kind/type leaves the system is when greater opportunities open for others. As a matter of fact they will not miss your unpleasant nature but make mockery of it at their leisure. Do whaa you can and let others do theirs.
Ypu are not special than others. it is just a privilege that you are enjoying.
Be calm
Be Submissive
Be humble
Be Reasonable
Be Accountable
Be Respectful.
Show love to others even when they make mistake. your nature is what you are remembered for, it is the memory of you that remains witg the people. Bad nature easily overshadows good.
Therefore watch your actions because what we have here is really a small world. The world is like a small village.
Glorify God always.
Still Elisedaniels...love for the Gospel.
