i was just thinking about it just a few days ago about how someone, somewhere in your life, makes a life changing statement that completely change your life forever.

for me, one of them was my sunday school teacher. she ask all of us in class if we will still love God after 5 years, cos everyone in sunday school always say we love God the most...i guess without understanding......

true enough, less than 5 years, i left the church....but her words never left me as i began my search for answers in life and everything else, i guess i began to question... but i always believe God exist, but i was just too occupied or maybe too proud to admit i needed God.

after more than 10 years, God send a beautiful guardian angel to me and i found God once again, i am a prodigal son, and i tell myself, i will love god all my live... so far i am sticking to it, but life have its ups and downs.....

the other person changed my views about work attitude. i was a fresh, green designer, who just graduated from school and was like...I AM THE BEST!!! and on top o the world and who thinks that nothing can stop me or go wrong.

was i wrong!!!....so wrong!!!!

i was rushing a project for an afternoon presentation. because it was rush, some of the work was badly done, but we have no choice but to go ahead and present it to the client... and we were running late.

i was there alone, cos my boss was too busy, as a fresh grad, i was nervous.

when i got there, the first thing the client ask me was...."why this one like that? not happy to do is it?" and i was like.........

but he was nice, and told me to do better next time...even if its a rush job and the importance of punctuality....

phew..... i crossed a hurdle

but that was a lesson that change me in my work and my attitude. no shit work goes out of the office. if its not good and cannot pass me, it cannot go out of the office.

not many people understand. they think i am a workaholic, killing myself with work. but all i really wanted is the best work.

yesterday, i meet a lady from another agency for a 'chat', she told me exactly the same thing, about how someone changes her behaviour. she was telling me about how this finance guy from the same agency would make a detour and pick her and her sister to work.... and she in turn did the when she drove.... and then she realised that this behaviour have rub off to her.....

have anyone said something to you that change your outlook in life?

another useless thought
