Soft ...... not weak

Hi friends,

It has been a while since my last writing in this blog. I haven't stop writing but I believe some of my writings are too personal to share so, I just wrote it in my special writing book. Anyway, here I am again.

I have been a jobless soul for five months now. How does it feel? Hhmnn...... sometimes it feels very nice (no jokes .... it's true), sometimes it is depressing, sometimes .... stressful and sometime it is an unexplained feeling. It is just a mix feeling.

Anyway, one of my concern friend refers me to an organisation for a post and they called me for an interview. It was very nice to have the feelings of being wanted again. I went for the interview and everything ran smoothly.

So, what's the problem? Actually, there was no problem at all. It's just that what I add into the description of myself to make sure that people will not judge me just from my physical appearance. I told the interviewer that I'm naturally a soft person. I may look soft, I am a soft spoken person, sometimes I giggle when I'm anxious but I'm NOT a WEAK person. And she said  " I can't judge you only by your physical appearance in 30 minutes. I will still need to do an assessment based on your performance." Hhmn....... I like her already.

YES! You can't penalised a person just because she is a soft person. Just because she is physically soft, doesn't mean that she can't handle the position. Look at the resume, look at the achievement, give her a test or something before coming to a statement that YOU ARE TOO SOFT FOR THE POSITION. Anyway, I'm not applying to be a soldier or a policeman .

What I'm trying to say is ....please DO NOT perceive softness as a weakness. People can look physically soft but yet they are mentally and spiritually strong and vice versa.  As a woman, I'll be very proud if a person perceive me a soft woman because that is just natural but never ever perceive softness as a weakness because it can be demoralising.

Goodnight my friends
