Serve for Goodwill

India
January 31, 2013 12:42pm CST
Though professionally I am an engineer, I have indulged in many career and in some non-tech fields too. Now I am a journalist and serving for two periodicals. As I have experienced, serving friends for their present requirements gives immense pleasure. I love to find smile in people's face, which is obvious. But if i get smile because of my service at the time of their need, I feel honored. Many of my friends visits my place, as my place is a famous tourist destination with hundreds of old temples and one of the best place for pilgrims of hindu and budhists. Btw I am from Bhubaneswar, India. I feel honored, when my friends need any sort of help/ information etc. from me. Anyway, I have written so many things, which may be felt as if i am advertising myself. In fact, sometimes i do not understand, how much they are satisfied by interacting with me, but i do take care of them and that is only for a simple reason i.e. self-satisfaction, which is again key of my happiness. I think your goodwill is sufficient for my overall growth. Friends, I just thought to start a discussion and dont know, what to write. Anyway, I would like to find your way of life too at least to achieve happiness.

Hi Binay, I've done all kinds of work. Everything from waitressing, to pet care, receptionist, secretary, auto repair, and worked in the clubs. My joy is having repeat customers that are close, friend, not just clients. My joy is knowing that we treat all customers as if it were our own vehicle. If my husband doesn't feel it's safe for me to drive, it's not ready. That is just part of the key to my happiness. Being able to express myself, creatively, through poetry, written meditations, and painting brings me great joy. Time spent looking within, studying other cultures, religions, philosophies, for me, that is the ultimate in finding true happiness. Self discovery, sharing, growing, love, and friendship, I believe make up complete happiness for me. I can find bliss dancing around the house, drumming to Native drum and flute cds., sitting outside watching nature, with friends, family, or in solitude.

Oh, also have done construction work, hanging sheetrock and gyprock, as well as laying carpet and tile. As you have stated before, someone whom gets to work doing what they love is quite fortunate. But I also think it's the individuals own ideals that help to determine their happiness. Are you an optimist or pessimist? Do you count your blessings or prefer to hide from life? Do you take time for yourself? All of these things factor in. I'm done now, I think, lol.

Well, I'm happy to read your post, it shows you very determined to strive for the best. And you're gladly help others with your knowledge and skills. And with your journalism, you find the way to get your happiness like self - satisfication, it's really great to be able to find your job is aligning with your passion. I think no happiness greater than to enjoy your job as your passion. Since not everyone can have such a luxury, to be able to enjoy work as passion.

It is not assurance that being with engineering graduate course you will stick it, human wants is unsatiable as we grow up and becoming more matured in life our likes and dislikes changes as we mingled into a world of amazing nature. Where you most satisfied is the best for you to succeed and in so dong always remember no man is an Island you maybe the best but their are always more best.
