@ the Crossroad of My Life
Dear friends,

I’m not in the mood to write a melancholic poem today. I just want to share my thoughts & feelings. It’s been a hectic period last month where I faced so many pressures & uncertainties at work that forced me to re-evaluate my career path and future. I feel that at the age of 30 I arrive at the crossroad of my career & life.

Being almost 5 years in textile industry has shaped me a lot, notably in marketing skills. I am basically an introvert guy but a marketing job forced me to develop an outgoing and intelligent character in order to generate new business. But Indonesian textile world is deteriorating slowly and with current situation and practically no help from the government to intervene, our products will eventually lose its competitiveness. This whole situation disheartened me and I just cannot see my future in this field. So I am now faced with 2 options: move to another company in the same field, or try out something totally new. The 1st option will guarantee my career path and also the salary range since I already have an avid experience in textiles, meanwhile the 2nd option will require a rigorous training and possibly a lower salary. I am excited to try out something new but the latter option must be carefully selected.

Next problem would be my personal life. To be honest, I am a lonely guy and need a friend. I need someone to accompany me until death do us part. In short, I need a wife! However as a Christian we are required to submit our thoughts to the will of God and make a decision according to His will and time. Therefore finding the perfect lady is not as easy as it seems to be. I do have an ideal type: she must be 3-7 years younger, cheerful yet thoughtful, optimistic yet understanding, submissive yet progressive. One thing I long for is a woman who could share the same passion and vision for life, that is to serve God in church and to be a good testimony to the people around us. So I began to look for such woman in the closest circle of my social life. However so far the possibility is grim and I am still in doubt over many things that the girl has. Meanwhile I just cannot wait any longer. I long to get married before I reach the age of 32.

So now is the time to carefully search God’s kingdom and see how He will lead me.
So if my name ever happens to cross your mind, please remember to pray for me.
And don’t hesitate to share your thoughts and feelings, too, so I can mention them in my prayers.

Warm regards,

    A dream job would be:
    DOING SOMETHING THAT WE LIKE OR INTEREST IN, AND YET PEOPLE PAY US TO DO IT.

    Unfortunately, only a few of us can have such luxuries.

    So pick your job carefully, this could be your last chance "to start all over again"

    Ttg istri? Wah no comment deh!
    Gue sih percaya dengan motto: "Menjemput Bola" daripada hanya sit around and do nothing.

    Goodluck yah Brad!
