“Everything happens for a reason”

August 17th, 2006 by beth0428

I was so hesitant to attend that team building.  Unang-una, we were advised few days before the scheduled date.  Syempre may mga prior engagements na kami at ang iba sa amin, especially sa broadcast team, may work ng Saturday.  Pangalawa, naisip ko wala namang mangyayari dun.  Baka plastic-an lang ang all. Pagkatapos, back to reality na naman.  But I was wrong.. the team building was fun and I learned a lot of things.  Pero syempre may ilang primadona(tama ba spelling ko?) talaga, ganun na talaga siguro siya..sila?

Nakakatuwa kasi maraming nangyari dati.  Magulo.. nakakasama ng loob at nag lead pa sa hindi pagpapansinan ng matagal-tagal ding panahon.  Masaya talaga ako kasi may dahilan pala yung team building na yun.  Palagi nga naming sinasabi ni Grace, "Everything happens for a reason."  Isang DATING ka-close ko from different department ang lumapit  sa akin.  Syempre nagulat ako.. kasi dati lumalabas sya ng cr pag nandun ako e.  Kahit nga sa pantry, pag pumasok na ako lalabas na.  Pero that night, binati nya ako.  My initial reaction was.. niyakap ko sya.  Ang saya ko nun.  Ang tagal din kasing parang hindi kami magkakilala.  I even felt guilty that time kasi narealize ko na mas mataas pa pala ang pride ko kesa sa pride nya.  Nawala lahat ng sama ng loob ko sa kanya.. at sinabi kong "tama na ha".. meaning stop na namin ang pagde-dead mahan.  Haaay… inisip ko pa yun over the weekend and napapa-smile ako.  Alam ko, she was sincere kasi kung pakitang tao lang yun, she could have done that in front of everybody.  Ininvite ko na sya dito sa friendster nung first working day pagkatapos ng team building. I deleted her kasi sa list ko.  We even exchange messages.  Sarap ng pakiramdam.  HIndi na namin kailangang iwasan ang isa’t-isa.  Diba, everything happens for a reason?
