People Problem And Teamwork Simulation

A well-developed mind, a passion to learn, and the ability to put knowledge to work are the new keys to the future.

It’s funny how I thought I saw myself among the people problems discussed – self conscious, tactless, martyr, procrastinator and some other traits. Behavioral safety, maybe a part where mostly people wouldn’t see the relevance of our behavior and our safety. But I guess it’s safe to say that I think, I did see its relevance. You know, that feeling how sometimes you kept blaming yourself for behaving so off after messing or screwing some things up. Our behavior defines mostly who we are and personally speaking, seeing myself on those people problem made me think about the times that I ran into several problems and how did I behave before, on and after. Way back in high school, I end up having a fight with one of my classmates because of my tactlessness, Our behavior really affects our environment and all the people that surround us but I know that being an open-minded person and at the same time, sensitive on what others might feel (well-developed mind), being willing to change (a passion to learn), and learning from the things I did wrong (the ability to put knowledge to work) would make it better for me and for others as well.

I understand that the activity was all about how we respond when we encounter people with those kinds of behavior but during the sharing, selfish as it may seem, I end up reflecting on those people problems. Somehow, I find it related. After all, good things happen by starting to fix the loose threads within ourselves.

As for the game, an open mind as well and at the same time presence of mind (well-developed mind), a heart who aims of finishing the task with flying colors (a passion to learn), and to work on our group mates simultaneously – no words spoken, no signals delivered (the ability to put knowledge to work) would have made us all a successful player.

Meleria's Sonnet

It seemed to be a new life at the time, You caught my attention unconsciously; I was in need, and you helped willingly, A unique bond grew and was pure as lime; You are the lyrics of the string’s rhyme, My dream’s exact epitome, shockingly; A magical sense exist swiftly, I was reluctant ‘cause it’s like a crime; And when He heard me, confusions came too; 'Guess I wasn’t ready at the time yet; All is said and done, what else could I do? Pain crushed me, and it seemed too hard to beat, Blade tears me when thud rose from the piano, Mind of hate, soul of love, heart of regret. - M

Sadly Missed, Lovingly Remembered

There were two persons who came to my life whom I barely know but both touched my life unexpectedly, shared a great secret to me and had left me the moment I needed them most. The only difference they have was that the first person promised to come back while the other one didn't say a word. I've been waiting for the first person to come back for almost half a decade but she never showed up, the only thing she had left me was a small Science Dictionary. I've been searching for her in the internet. I was young then that's why I couldn't remember her exact appearance. I lost her phone number and all I have was the name of the town where she came from, if only I could go there by myself then I would have done it a long time ago. The second one was the person who taught me to be strong, the person who said that there were still good things he found despite of my shortcomings, the person I thought would never leave me, and the person who made me change the

Obey

Why do you do what you do? For whom do you offer the things that you do? What is your primary concern when you make decisions? Can you imagine yourself doing something you don’t understand but you do it anyway out of obedience? I, myself, don’t fully understand the concept of obedience. It has been a constant struggle for me. However, the Bible is strewn with stories that teach us how to be obedient. Like Joseph for example. Joseph knew that he will be judged by others when he decided to obey God, when he chose to be with Mary. Yet he followed what God had instructed him to do. Despite the uncertainties and the struggles he and his bride might face, he trusted and obeyed God. A year ago, I was asked why I wanted to be an engineer. My answer at that time may not be wrong but the conversation showed me a new perspective. I was told that while my answer was for the right reasons, still, I should be doing the things that I do for a greater purpose. And that is for God’s glory
