ann in Japan - life is short, let's live our lives to the fullest

thanks to mama for waking up in the middle of the night to talk with me.
to be precise, to listen to my worries.

this time it is not that I do not understand the culture but because I know it so well but I cannot do it.
a grown up (regardless of their race and culture) or Japanese people usually try their best to create peaceful working environment. the Japanese believe that we have to be working together in the future so there is no need to fight over little issues.
but working with one colleague (he is years older than me, probably he is a senior?) I tend to initiate a fight whenever I work with him.

I try to think why why! why I so obey and respect others but him.it is so obvious and I feel so sorry for him too.

thanks God everyone understands why I act so. if they not Japanese they would do the same but since they are grown up, they'd rather not be so straightforward.

today I hope I don't have to work with him so I can be peaceful at work. but if I have to work with him I hope I will be calm and not being short tempered.or staying thing humiliating.
(yesterday I did say a few things in front of others and him, regarding some flaws....so humiliating!!!!)

I will be careful with words and actions today.
