Hows Work?

The standard question these days. Meet anyone you know, and thats the first question that people ask you. Not, "How are you?, but "Hows work?" Its like you have become secondary to the work you are doing. Everywhere you look, all people want to be able to do is to compare their experiences with yours. "Hows your company? Oh yeah. in mine we do this. " Or "My company is awesome, they do this, and that and the other, do you guys also do this?"

Its like a competition. A big ego battle. Isn't it all about the experience too? Your experience? What's the point in the experience, when all you do is sit at your desk and mix with the people you already know. Get out, make new friends, explore the area. The "work" is not all about the company, it also includes the people (thats the real "company"), the places, the real world experiences.

So, hows work?

New Times (2)

To answer my own question - Yes it does matter. Its just a question of choosing.

The past is just dust, in sands that were blown by the wind of the journey, and lost to eternity.

The now is something different. Something with new surroundings, and new companions.
New stories. New ways of telling them.

That is what this is all about.

New Times

New city. New places. New faces. New times.
Something stay the same. Sometimes the shackles hold on tight. Sometimes they wont let go.

Old faces. Old people. New characters. New behaviour. Character influences.
One always said that people are known by the company they keep. Who would have guessed, people change based on location and the company around them?

Move across the continent, and boom, a new person emerges.

Stories. Untold, slowly get told. Things unsaid, are spoken. Some things meant to be said, remain unsaid.

New city. New places. New faces. New times.
Does it really matter?
