It’s already late, and I have to go to work early tomorrow, but I still want to write something down to capture my feelings lately.
My heart has been in turmoil these days, with work, relationships, family… This year is the first time I’m celebrating Tet away from home, away from my family. I’ve been working throughout the winter break, almost 12 hours a day. Every day after work, I’m exhausted.
It’s strange, isn’t it? Usually, when people are so busy and tired, they don’t have the energy to think about anything else.
But I keep thinking, and thinking….
My current job makes me realize that I’m lacking in so many ways. I’m much slower than my peers. While everyone has gradually become accustomed to the work pace, I’m still hazy, forgetting this and that.
My friends comforted me, saying that everyone is like that at first, even worse than me. To be honest, I’ve realized that this job is not suitable for me. But I will try my best to finish this winter break. It’s my responsibility, and I have to fulfill it.
The most wonderful thing I have gained during this time is my colleagues. They have helped me a lot, even though I have caused them a lot of trouble. They are willing to help with the work I haven’t finished yet, without mentioning their contributions.
On busy days with overtime, we all gather together to help each other finish so we can go home together.
No one is left behind.
That is also the moment I remember the most. We can’t always reach out to help others, but there are times when each person offering a hand is enough. The most precious thing is still the sincerity.
No need to add flowers to the brocade, just provide coal on a snowy day.
不必錦上添花，只需雪中送炭。
That’s enough.
