Start a new journey

Just ran into an ex-colleague this afternoon while on my way back after shopping for some groceries. We were exchanging some words and asking about each other's well-being since it had been quite a while after I had left the job.

This ex-colleague was saying a good rest is essential before we take up a new journey (休息是为了走更远的路). I totally agree and in fact my personal experience speaks for it. I took up the last job (not on impulsion) but with some reservations which I thought I should not hold prejudices against some issues that I think it would be overcome given the time, communications, interactions with the people etc etc. But, I was proven wrong and should have remained on my first guts-feel impression. And a lot of time, the synergy is important, although by itself it is not the single sole determinating factor!

Anyway, it was an experience learnt and I have moved on from there......
