In
a world filled with sweet scents and blue sky,
Lives
the gentle, uplifting butterfly,
Whose
metamorphosis has this truth to teach:
Our
aspirations are within our reach.
For
this fluttering flyer of soaring worth
Was
at one time a creature that crawled the earth
When
she climbed a plant and learned of the sky,
She
looked down at the earth and wondered why
Her
destiny was to live on the land.
Something
inside her did not understand.
“The
sky is my home”, every part of her felt
“How
could crawling be the lot I’ve been dealt?”
Keeping
those thoughts safe, where they could be found,
She
slowly descended back to the ground.
When
she found the right plant on which to rest,
She
brilliantly wove a cacoon for her nest.
Inside
the chrysalis, she went to sleep
Tucked
in with those thoughts that she wanted to keep
One
sunny day, the cacoon came unsealed
Magically,
a butterfly was revealed
Seeing
this miracle with my own eyes;
Of
caterpillars becoming butterflies,
Beings
real hope of the possibility
Of
the total transformation of me!
Like
the caterpillar that crawls the Earth,
We
are destined for a divine birth

May 16, 2011: I sang a nursery rhyme to my boss and I get employed.
Still remembered it was four months before I graduate,
when I was just thinking to have some part time job ,
so to ready myself a full time job after I complete my study.
Coincidentally, I passed by a recruiting notice on a wall when I was doing my shopping
it's written:
"Are you enthusiastic towards young kids? Did you have a pleasant voice with positive attitude?
You are the one we are looking for! Join us!"

"Are you enthusiastic towards young kids? Did you have a pleasant voice with positive attitude?
You are the one we are looking for! Join us!"
After I joined in, I was surprised to know that the working environment is like heaven,
and all the customers are those cute little angels ranging from 0-5 years old
while my job tasks are to sing songs, dance and play with them
the nature of the job is the awesome ever i can find, and it makes me feel as in I was born to be meant for this job
the colleagues were young, energetic and nice
I had awesome time working there.
time really flies,
as I always find myself working Over Time without realizing. But I did, enjoy doing it
Everything went so perfect, until the REALITY comes in.
Our lady boss is a business woman,she, represent everything in the company
whatever she feel is correct, it will be the company vision;
whatever she command, that will be the objectives of the company.
Every promise changes, whichever she thinks is right
Finally I chose to leave; than to struggle myself to stay in a heaven with nothing to believe in
After that, I kept looking for a similar job,
intended to find a similar working environment where I can be surrounded by super cute kids
Until I found a Child Enrichment Center which emphasis on Multiple Intelligence
It is a growing company with positive work strategies
I joined them in the starting of 2012.
In that company, everyone was nice and friendly;
there goes my my four months over there,
simple and peaceful working life.
Until the REALITY comes hit me again,
where you find everyone started to question you:
How was the pay over there? What are you actually working and what have you learned?
Did that really benefiting you in your future? what can you become?
I have no choice but to start thinking what I really want to achieve in my life.
Yes, I am doing what I like,
children are my love and teaching is my passion;
but living in my dream can as well benefiting me in reality?
At that time, I was quite confused and I have to admit that I've made my decision in rush.
I threw in my resignation and decided to go for a bank corporation.
Initially, I felt extremely bad for leaving the company without them having a chance to make me stay;
but everything has come to an end after I received their letter.
The letter claimed that I decided to go without having intention to serve for a full one month notice,
therefore, they have no choice but to fine me around RM400.
I understand that salary deduction is reasonable for not being able to serve for full month notice;
but when they're giving me this while expecting me to return to them in future, is that sound convincing? No.
The moment I received the letter I was pissed off. Very very pissed
Even after I slept I still had that in my dream and ended up woke up in a super bad mood.
I was told by this end to do like this; while the other end send me letter claim that I should not do thing this way.
It seem like what is being promised is not what it's turn out to be.

It seem like what is being promised is not what it's turn out to be.
Thinking from a good side. Without the letter I would not expect such cruelty.
Now that I'm relieved, to freely pursue my new goal without having to take care of anything else.
Despite all, the inspiration they gave was indeed a priceless one,
for, there is no shortcut in life until I really experience it by myself to decide what I really want.
Both the lessons learned had actually given me a real slap in my face.
That I should realize by now,
for what I thought it will be everything in my life is actually not what I am looking for.
It has also reminds me of the truth that: "Dream, cannot make money".
Now, I am giving myself a try to live in REALITY,
While seeing the world out there can afford giving me more than what I am searching in life
thus, there would be no necessity for me to risk my life just to live in my dream
for it can hardly guarantee me that they can secure the future that I wanted
A process of transformation from caterpillar into butterfly,
from a creature that used to crawl on the ground,
into a creature that can fly freely in the air.
For it is nothing more than a transition,
for you to go through the stages,
to know where you really belong.
No one is born perfect; as we can hardly find a newborn flying in the sky effortlessly
there is nothing wrong to crawl on ground, while you know you have the ability to fly
For it is just a matter of transition, that requires time and effort as well as patient.
I am now living quite fine in reality, despite missing the children a little
