At middle age, some already feel old. Some feel they’re like a half cup of coffee: it’s neither full or empty. When you have kept enough reserves and maintain good health, who really cares? The key is where to find good and cheap coffee. But if you’re still trying to find your own means, you have to accept that many things are really beyond our control like the forever rising cost of living and medical insurance premiums. It’s very hard to swallow but we have no choice but to take it! ☹
I’m a senior work horse(老马). I work 18 hours-day, 7 days a week non-stop (马不停蹄) for the last 35 years. I have no social life. Just work and sleep. Recently, I slipped (马有失蹄) and one part came loose and caused many broken parts and excessive damages. I hope it’s not my fault because a team looks after my well-being full-time. They clean my body and check my health every night per SOP (不马虎) when I sleep. If my Boss and driver (马夫) blames me for this slip up and wants to retire me, I hope to attend the career conversion program to join the hotel of F&B industry. Or sell me to Malaysia (马国)for the strengthening ringgits (马币) instead of sending me to the slaughter house.
When you’re young and well-known, everyone
thinks you are skilled, talented and can always offer something valuable.
People often look up to you, want to be seen with you and to be engaged with
you. Jobs and good things would come looking for you! It’s lucky to be young
and enjoying life.
