Well, one day I hope you'll just get together with your real sisters....and just be sisters. I wish the love between amongst you as sisters was liberated...as a dove set free. May such happiness sit quietly with the 3 of you 1 day all together as a trio.

Last week, I was slightly surprised another woman in the office, tossed a slightly negative comment at me. She suggested 1 of the woman, who reported to me, maybe afraid of me.

AFterwards it occurred to me that I may be abit distant to quite a number of women at work. Friendly but distant at times. It is possible that if I am put into a role of mentoring others or supervising others or just being the "older" sister, I tend to expect the person to become their very best. Which may not be fair. I don't know. I just get abit impatient with mature but directionless women now.

But truth be, that after working for several employers, I just found it easier not to get too close. And the woman who is supposedly afraid of me...well, it must be for reaseons I don't know or don't really exist. She no longer leaves our office area to go out for lunch others. Instead she sticks around in the same office space where I am at lunch. I seldom go out to lunch with anyone. Lots of guys where I work...and the gals have their own little groups. That's ok ..for lone rangers like me.

What I'm trying to say, is being the best learning self, even though it might feel abit lonely at times, is not the worse thing either. And having those few good friends that you can rely on..is fine...even if you don't see them often. Same problem I have now..except my closest friends are thousands of kms. away.
