Trusting your instincts

Hello little angel,

How are you? It's been a while I have written you. I travelled to Niagara this spring break. It was a nice trip. Also I had my first traffic citation here at US for overspending :P.

I was thinking about what to write today. Thought I will tell you about gut feelings. If you are a thinker, you will always think about situations or persons beforehand. Generally we think through every possibilities beforehand and make a perception of our own. Today I want to discuss with you if it is okay to perceive beforehand.

I think there is no binary answer to this question. As you grow old and think more, your perception gets better. I do agree that most of time our assumptions proves to be correct. I think that's a blessing and tragedy at same point. There's another perspective to this that I have realised lately. When one thinks deeply and makes a perception of the situation beforehand, they unconsciously starts to act upon that. And the fun part is they often don't even realise. I think that's where problem begins. Now if you are a thinker, you can not stop thinking. But what you can control is your actions. You should always act on the present situation. I believe that will also help you stopping recursive thinking. Also, if you find yourself having a quirky feeling about some person, it's always better to confront the people and let them know what bothers you. Holding anger for no reason hurts ourselves more than anybody. It's important to make sense of these feelings. It is very natural to feel this way and that is what makes us human. Also it is important to inspect them closely. Is it something about them that bothers you subconsciously or is it some truth that you can not admit? While inspecting, be fair to the person and yourself as well.

Lots of hugs.

Yours always,
Dad

My One year Job - Part II

Hi Darling, It has been quite a time I wrote you. Not that I was super busy, but it's more of I was not feeling good lately. I should have written you more. It makes me happy. I was telling you about my life during my job in the last letter. Somehow I have not finished it. Today my colleagues went for a plant visit, the whole team. They have video called me from there. It brings me in tears. I only have worked there for one year. Who would have done that for an ex-employee? I always believed that it takes nothing to be kind and show affection to everyone around you. The world is already a hard place to sustain. Showing a kind gesture would take nothing from you but can give a smile to peoples around you. Isn't that what we live for? I have realised that it's way easier to make someone smile than making yourself. I see people now stress on making themselves happy. Honestly I find no justification behind that. If you make yourself happy, it's only you. But if you make som...

Life choices

Dear Little Angel, I hope this finds you well during this Thanksgiving week. I apologize for not writing sooner. Firstly, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for being such an important part of my life and for always listening to my thoughts, no matter how trivial they may seem. Conversing with you is a true joy. How have you been? As for me, I've been facing some challenges with work and academics lately, but I'm doing my best to navigate through them. Exciting news – I've booked a ticket home for a month in December. It's been quite a while since I last visited, and I'm thrilled at the prospect of returning. This trip will be my first since relocating, and I've grown and learned so much during this time. I've shared most of these experiences with you, but today, I'd like to reveal a part of my journey that I've kept to myself until now. Back in April 2022, after a particularly difficult phase, I began to settle into my job. I was slowly findin...
