Did I mention how grateful that I am blessed with all the wonderful people in my life?

Just last week, I made a mistake in my work. And being the worst-case-scenario kinda person, I was freaking out, and was ranting to a couple of my best friends.

Good thing is, they all know me, so they sorta managed to calm me down. But I still couldn't help being hard on myself, because I am a bit of a perfectionist, and I don't forgive myself easily when I make a mistake.

And then... I told my story of the mistake that I did to one of my colleagues, who I am quite close with, and she offered to help me rectify my mistake even though it won't benefit her at all.

Though the issue is solved now, I still feel very touched when I think about this colleague of mine. I know making mistakes is also a learning process, but whenever someone, my colleagues, step up to help me with what I did wrongly, I just can't help but feel so blessed that despite having a lousy superior, I still have all the wonderful colleagues in my workplace. And all the encouragement and support that I got from them whenever I feel down because of the said lousy superior, that really cheer me up.

Really, sometimes I wonder what I did in my past life that makes my karma so good this lifetime, that I am blessed with wonderful people who love and care for me. NOT that I am complaining, of course.

Don't be so hard on yourself. We're all human, and sometimes we forget that we actually need other people. All you really have to do is ask someone for help.

Hey Laila, yea... I know, one of my best friends told me that too. But sometimes it's so hard to break out of your own mindset, and it seems that I have always been hard on myself since ages ago, so yea... But I'm lucky cos I have wonderful people in my life.

Thanks for your kind words :)
