Something beautiful for God...

Wise Advice
from Mother Teresa

( because it was never between you and them )

---

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind,
people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful,
you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank,
people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building,
someone could destroy overnight.
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness,
they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today,
people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have,
and it may never be enough;
Give the best you've got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis
it is between you and God;
it was never between you and them anyway.

When friends lose their jobs...

Last few weeks have been tough...at work. Company laid off around 2000 employees. For the first time in my career I need to give a message to some of my team members that they need to go (its not really because of their bad performance). Luckily I don't need to send anybody same day. Thank God. 

When I went down to the war room to collect the letters for my team I could see Ram in the room talking to HR and completing his relieving formalities. Ram is my cab mate , Saturday morning table tennis partner at club , a father , a son , a husband..., a manager... He was there in the cab in the morning...I never expected that Ram will be in that unlucky list...Life is so unpredictable...I was thinking "what will he tell his wife once he reach home after loosing his job..." .I am glad he got another job close to his house within few weeks. God has better plans for all of us.

CEO's resume mistakes was another big news. CEOs resume has mentioned wrong qualifications...We got a mail on a Monday morning that Scott (CEO) left the company. Scott is also a father , a son , a husband...Everybody makes mistakes...Felt sorry about him...
