I have made my decision, less than a month from now. I will
be posting my blog in another time zone. Leaving the place  where I am  right now is very hard.   I had
wonderful group of  staff and a great
boss , Things that  sometimes take years
to find. As I leave this place I know and feel I have left a little of myself here.

But I sometimes you have to take chances in life or you end up not living life just watching it pass by, and that my friends I cannot do.

"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

I did not  take either road i am making my own.

Goodbye’s and Hello’s

I spent the other night at the beach , the wind was blowing quite a bit bringing in some chills. But i was embraced by the warmth of the cooking grill in front of me. I was grilling  a good 5 kilos of chicken wings, 1 pound of scallops  and undetermined amount of sausages and  We even had lobster .I haven’t cooked for sometime but tonight i wear the chefs hat. tonight I was serving my staff. they deserve it as they have been an excellent team.

That night was a send off party  for one my staff .She will be leaving our hotel and joining the friendly sky by being a CC for Asiana Airlines.
Tears flowed as we all shared memories of the teamwork and camaraderie. But laughs also filled the air when we shared jokes.  The jokes went beyond the language barriers in the group , considering  we were 5 different nationalities yet we all laughed as hard as any one.

As they brought her to the airport for her flight.

I smiled away knowing she would be my 10th staff in my career  to have joined the Airline industry and looked forward to new chapter in their lives.

I have yet to meet them in any of my trips in the air. But who knows….i might bump up to 1st class for free. and be greeted by  "Hello Sir Garry"

Forkintheroad

There are time’s in one’s life you meet the fork in the road. Some forks tend to be parallel ie like should i buy a car or invest in this new mutual fund Sun Life has.

But then again you have forks  that shows you the the initial path but the destination is unknown as each path leads to somewhere beyond the present horizon ie Should I move to another country.

We will see as I make a decision

This would be the 5th country  I would be working in if i ever decide
