Passion

I found passion today.

No, not my passion, but passion in someone else. It’s my lecturer who is also my course’s supervisor in-charged of the student’s affairs and welfare.

It’s hard to explain, but despite knowing her for only a short period, it’s easy to see that she’s truly dedicated to her job.

What inspired me were her work rate, energy and efficiency. By being the programme supervisor, she’s inherently heaped with tones of administrative work; includes having to attend to the many whimpers and hitches of 300+ students of all personalities.

In addition are the teaching duties which she had put so much effort and time into.

What’s more impressive is her being a mother of 2 infants.

Writing about the amount of work she has to juggle everyday does not do justice to her, because clearly, I suck big time at describing things. But just wanna say that it’s amazing to see people with such enthusiasm and determination in carrying out their job.

Maybe it’s more than a job, it’s a passion that gives her the reason and will to go on.

Often, we’re so stressed and burned out because of the things that we have to do. Perhaps we need to stop and think about the reasons we’re doing them, and find the inner strength to carry on.
