The moment of happiness so simple
Got an email reply from Sha. Read it till the last and felt so very touched.
I miss her a lot, actually. Aside from Cj and Zie whom I still keep in contact with, I really miss this very good and much respected x-colleague of mine. Really.
She always thinks that I'm amazing with words. I think the petition that I wrote must have left a super lasting impression. But the truth is, she left an even more lasting impression on me. Being a mother of a child with ASD and a teenage daughter, a wife, the eldest daughter in her family and a teacher working with ASD children, she has managed all these roles so very well. And on top of all these, she's such a great person to work with and a very supportive colleague and friend. She has my utmostest respect.
When I'm at my most tired and fatigued point, her email made me long for something... that human touch. That warm, big embrace that says 'You are a special person, Jancy. Never forget that.'
That was her last line in the email. I am very, very touched. It's people like her that really made me wonder if I should never have left Pathlight...
I said I choose misery. And this is the kind of moment when you feel happiness so simple and intense that it absolutely defines this moment. When you feel touched by the words of another person and not hurt or disappointment.
