May 24

My friend consider her work’s demand of traveling a lot an opportunity to appreciate everything about life. The stress and tiredness are always compensated with the joy of seeing different places, meeting new people, establishing ties and experiencing new cultures. It’s true that it is putting your life at risk when you travel a lot. But what else is new about it? Everyday of your life gets you also in taking risks anyway. Early this year, she got promoted in her existing employment in a Branding company. She’s not the typical office girl anymore. With her new job position, she get to travel a lot, dealing with new clients and visiting their existing clients to cater to their needs. 0ne time, her five year old nephew asked her if he could join in her trips because he wanted to ride on an airplane. Aside from informing that she can not attend to his needs if he’ll go with her because she’ll be very busy, she gave him an alibi that kids under 7 years of age are not allowed to travel with out their parents. But he told her his mom is very busy nowadays. With his desire to ride on planes, he innocently asked her if he can hide in my luggage so that we will not be questioned at the airport. I wanted to laugh but I didn’t want him to feel bad. So she told him to ask his mom, when she’ll not be busy, so that they can go with my friend in her next trip. He gladly said yes and went straight to convince his mom.
