What goes around comes around ~ TALIBAN

I always believe that God is always watching over us all and what ever good or bad deeds we've done we'll get back what we deserve. Its what they call KARMA.
We'll this goes way back when the new Dean comes to the Campus. I don't know how it happens or who's the catalyst but soon after the new Dean arrived , my name was blacklisted of all the things that i've never done. Well i was being framed of taking money from the University, I was being framed of doing my own work without checking with the Management. My career was in a microscope that what ever small things i did, everybody will know about it.What ever good things i've done , it will always be turned into negative things. I was so stressed up with the way people in the campus potrays me. I made me feel useles, unadequate , untrustworthy but most of all they make me feel small.
But i presevior and sometimes i parish for the clouds that runs over my head. I felt that the world is coming down on me , codeming me for the reason that didn't exist. Sometimes i felt discourage and just quitting my job and start a new . But then i ask myself ,if i give in , means that i am guilty as charged, and that i let them win. So...... i took a drastic action and start being quiet. ... shshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... I kept things to myself and concentrate on my job without taking extra task. I make sure that i furnished everything to my work without leaving anybody in the Campus to even closely condeming me. Then i work harder proving myself worthy of my job.
I became silent in a way being a none treat to anyone in the Campus ( I used to be a loud person in the Campus especially when it comes to giving my opinions and comments) and i guess it works. I guess in a blue collar job, we need to be a little laid back and you need to be a spectator , hehe let the people around you be in the play. My place is in the back seat and clapping my hands cheering up ...... although...... it burns me inside, because i knew i would and could do more.
My wise oldest sister use to tell me along time ago " In an every cloudy sky , there will be a silver lining" . So soon after that, things gets a little bit better and soon everybody realize that i am good in my work and that i am not a threat to anyone. I remember a while back, everytime i requested to buy something for my section and when the boss saw my name as the person requested , they will automatically cancel the request. So what i did was , i would ask my subordinate to sign it on behalf of me, i have gown so low to even ask my subordinate to do it for me, but i know that someday things will turn for the better.
So years gone by and i finally now, i have proven myself worthy and that my section is the most updated and most dynamic section in my department. It made me proud but most of all ,it put me back on my seat, but i couldn't have done it without the help from my other collegue. My motto to them is " If you want to start something, do it and do it whole heartedly but if you dont want to do it, then don't do it all"
So yesterday, after our meeting for the MSK, i was inside my room working and minding my own bussiness, then a 2 ladies comes to my room, talking to me. Now these women are the ones that was so close to the Dean a while back,feeding him information, telling him what to do and even to a point claimed that they are the bunch that would protect the Dean if anything would have happen to him. They were talking and grumbling of how unfair they were treated by everyone nowadays and that they are the new TALIBAN of the campus. Wow!!!! a taliban. That funny ... hehehe . because at least i never called myself names. They told me how unfair and how disgusted they are with the management and was chit chatting among themselves and sometimes makes this very loud noise and laugh as if they were so happy and enjoying themselves. I just give a big old smile to them and expressed how i felt thier sorrows for i was on thier shoes before, and that i do not have any comment on anything they said and........ walk off with a big smile on my face.
So you see, it always pays to be nice and that what goes around comes around and that what ever we do ... we get back double. So when we do good deeds then we get back double and vise versa. But i thank god that i kept my dignity and that i got family and friends that stand besides me tru thick and thin. But most of all i kept my feet close to the ground. Arent we all blessed.
