labour

I sunk into the melancholy mood when I see my co-workers are struggling to work hard everywhere...near and far..

So many of us have fallen sick for the last couple of weeks..

And we were still at work even though we were supposed to rest..

because of accountability we couldn't let go a moment to check out mailbox (fear that we might miss an important e-mail)

because of blinded power and pride we couldn't let go a moment of being right (fear that we would be condemned if we admitted our mistakes)

what have enslaved us - high pay? power? authority? social status?

there are things larger in life...and no yardstick can measure...
