A craftsman lifts a rock off the ground. A rock that he has cautiously chiseled to separate it from its surrounding earth. There he was, balancing the weight of the heavy rock with his sore arms, stumbling to his workshop in a nearby cave.
He lays the rock on the table. For a split second, he stood there motionlessly. Lifting his blister hands, he reached out to the rusty old tools that hanged by the wall. It was as if so magically, the tools seem to obey his every stroke and every brush.
Bit by bit, the dirt loosen up to dust. In a corner, a glimpse of red shimmered.
He got excited. He quicken his strokes, tactfully picking up the different odd tools.
Is that a ruby in there?
No one knows. But this glimpse of red was hope that the rock could be a precious gem. But what really lies beneath can only be determined after further examination. A fraud ruby is nothing but a piece of rock.

That's life. It unfolds bit by bit. We learn more about ourselves each day. New phases in life uncover more of us. But what truly lies inside will never be known. Till that time, we have to persevere.
Life's getting exciting at BAT. For now.. I'm still very happy. Seems like HR was truly a blessing in disguise. But shall see.. Maybe 2 months later, maybe 2 years, 20 years later i'll reflect back to see if its truly a blessing in disguise.
Everything is so uncertain now. I shall just enjoy my love for work now. =)
PS: internet's down.. Tapping my neighbour's so won't be live often. And i sleep at 1030pm everyday because i need wake up at 520. Good Luck to me for the next 9 weeks.
