Just dropping a note to indicate my presence... =)
been busy the last month with meetings and reports and planning... would have blogged but just got kind of lazy.. don't think the people who read this would be interesting in knowing what exactly I've been up to these days... hahaha... it would have been too technical for some of you...
anyway... have been thinking a bit these days about inner strength and support.... I think every day in our lives, we come across people who really impress us, who exemplify themselves like the role model we have been looking for... and they're like role models because we see in them something that we would like to have but don't quite have yet.. interestingly enough, strength is a quality that usually stands out, be it strength physically, mentally, in terms of discipline etc
Perhaps it is because of this that sometimes we tend to forget that these role models of ours are as human as we are, that they have their fears and worries and down moments... so I think that if we really see them as role models, if they are the people we want to be like, then it would naturally mean so much to us to be able to help or "be useful" to these people...
And the best way to do so is to thank them, to show our appreciation to them for being that model in our lives, for having it in themselves to be who they are today.... So this is a tribute to all the role models out there... if they're playing that crucial role in our lives, let's find our way of playing our role in their lives....
Role modeling is a powerful thing; and so is appreciation... when there is both conscious appreciation and role modeling, only then can we build a culture of excellence and self-improvements...
