Today had great potential to be a very very very bad day. To me being wronged probably ranks up there as the worst feeling one can feel. To be brazenly accused of doing something wrong, even as I've treated that person with fairness, and even kindness where it was not required, is indeed hard to swallow. With the seething indignation rising within me, it was just so easy to say the wrong thing, to think wrong thoughts. Which is probably why there is a reminder in the Bible; in your anger, do not sin. Coming away from the initial reactions, perhaps there are some lessons I could take away. Treating people nicely doesn't mean it will be reciprocated, especially when our relationship at work often spawns into one where we are the hunters, and the other party feels like they are the hunted. Secondly, I can't be too careful at work. Being in this line, sloppiness at times could really someday bite me in the ass. When the clock strikes 8, especially after a night shift, all I wanna do is to clear everything dump it all and get home, but I guess when that's the most dangerous and crucial time, to make sure everything's completed properly. Oh well, live and learn.
All hope was not lost as today was Aien's open house for hari raya. Really fun with the guys around. I thank God everyday for giving me police NS, now I thank Him too for my team.
