Those who watched the Anne Hathaway-starred flick know that its message is directed to workaholic females unintentionally blurring the lines between work and personal life.
I've realized that i am committing the same mistake...dangerously tittering over the edge...
In the movie, Andy, our heroine became so deeply absorbed in her new job that it caused her to split with her boyfriend and distanced herself from her friends. Work became her world, her security, work stress is her excuse for every thoughtless action or word towards others around her.
I am guilty...i've been inconsiderate to my husband...i've been insensitive to my parent's needs...
She almost became a Miranda-clone (the Devil), thankfully towards the end of the movie she realized that she doesn't want to be like her. That kind of life is not for her, Andy is not like Miranda. There are other things in her life that are more important.
Today, I have realized that I am slowly turning into a devil through two email messages from friends...thanks to Pamy and Grace...i have become aware...i'm enlightened
"The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank...these create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. "
"Pagpasensyahan mo sana kung madalas, ako'y masungit, dala na marahil ito ng katandaan.
Pagtanda mo, maiintindihan mo rin."
I vow to recover from my mistakes, I promise to find the will to turn away from work when I need to, I will declare that my time with family and friends are holy and should be respected.
