I just want to bring out this issue since i know that there are some of us still and facing this kind of problems in their everyday lives. What do we really seek in our life..? Money..? Power? Authority? Life satisfaction..? I bet that there were alot of things that needs to be fulfilled by our needs and wants..
But what if you are in a situation whereby you have a good career path in your future, but as for a start.., you need to go from the below.. as the low salary as you may get.. but there will be a potential benefits when you stay on that particular organization (if you are a loyal employee).
When I went somewhere and meet new people.., they frequently have different point of views regarding the salary vs job satisfaction... Most of them will mention that salary will come across their mind at first hand despite the job scope they will face in the company. And even though the job is not what you really look for.., as long as the pay is high.., they will simply accept the job. But if they get the job they wanted and they got the salary they want, I just hope that they will always be grateful and also keep on improvising themselves in order to move from one level of income to a better level income person.
Well, I have a different point of view over here. I mean, to me if one particular job is not highly paid as for a start, as long as you really have passion of what want to do with your job, it would be a better choice after all. Not to say that I had an unestablished job, but the experience that I gained from various workplace really taught me of being independant and also respect of others. In the end of the day, professional status doesn't count much. We are just people. It's up to us on how we perceive things and treat it by using our own mindset or perception.
People usually said when you have more money, your tendency of spending will be even higher than your salary. That's the truth my friend. And even though I only earn small money for my job, at least I am being my very best of doing my job regardless of my role as a worker. And I'm starting to understand better the struggle and hardship of less fortunate people and also those who did struggle to get a better life for themselves or for their lovely family.
Alhamdulillah, day by day that I went thru with full of smile.., thanks to B~ for cheering me up all these days. These challenges and hardship in life are the most unforgettable things in my life till the day I close my eyes.
Islam had taught me of something.., whenever we have something extra in hand.., be it as in the form of money or food., we must remember that a little portion of what we are having are belong to them (anak2 yatim, fakir miskin, muallaf, etc.). When you give one to them, you'll get 10 as in return (in different ways). And I will always be grateful of what I have.
May we are blessed with the good things that we've done for the past 12 months. And don't forget to chase our permanent goal which is the hereafter life. Salam Maal Hijrah again..~
