A S A P

I use this term so often when replying emails related to my work, especially these days.... I will have many things to handle in October... it will be a helluva month.... and after that too... coz then we have to prepare to close down the office....

Come to think of it... as soon as possible is a very ambiguous term

First it may mean that I will prioritize whatever they are asking for and I will get back to them within no time

But it can also mean, that -whatever they are asking for- will not be possible in the near future and they will just have to wait and wait and wait coz I have assured them that I will get back to them whenever the answer is there.... so if I haven't replied, means the answer is not there yet.... and they should not bother me with another email.... isn't it?

C'est la vie

Life-is not as easy-as what they wrote-in the books
We-can-read-as many-books on interpersonal skills-as we want
But-life-and-people-are-unpredictable
They-may-not-react-as-what is written-there in the books

Mais-c'est la vie

We-learn-little by little-from our-experiences
Hoping-that-today-we will be-a teeny weeny bit wiser-than yesterday

C'est la vie

We-hope-that we can see-the future
But-it-is-so-impossible
We-may-have-our doubts-about-what tomorrow may bring
But-we-just-have-to go on with life

And-life-most of the times-does not give you-many choices
Sometimes-there's only one-choice
Just take it-or leave it

C'est la vie
