"Hello, Jack!"
My cousin called and said that she felt sad. I asked, "What happened?"
"A warning letter was given. However, it is good to remind me to work harder. I do admit that I have lost my focus in my job."
I did encourage her to continue working hard in her firm. Then she told me that she just wanna do something different. "I felt useless when I found myself not doing things which I desire." She said
After a long conversation, I could see that she wanna do something different in her life, rather than working in the same environment for long time.
Then she started to comment on my videos, "Jack, I do not really like your MV. Why is the whole video only about the model? I felt that the more I watch the video, the more I dislike the model."
In my mind, I was laughing. She might be feeling jealous of that beautiful model. Therefore, she spoke something nasty against her. Though my cousin's comment was not against my video work, I could see she dislike that model. Then I replied, "Hence, you find it unacceptable. Some people might be having the same comment as yours. However, I received good comments from most people as compared to the majority."
"Is it?" My cousin was surprised.
"Like you said, I wanna do something different. I wish to make a breakthrough in videography. No matter what people comment about my MV, I do not really bother. It is because I just wanna try something different. To you, it's a lame MV. For others, it is a wonderfully made MV. SONY Center in Kota Kinabalu saw this MV and they were amazed. That is why now I am engaged with them in one of their projects."
"SONY center?"
"Cousin, not all people will be satisfied with our work. For example, you and many people may like 'Avatar' the movie, not all people may like it. You get what I mean? When you are working in your firm, you wanna try something new. Do all people satisfy with your concept? Well, not all. However, it still goes the same. I just do what i need to do - doing something different. Then people will notice your existence. I believe this is what you wanna do in your firm, isn't it? To do something something."
Our God is a god who always does something different. That is why he touches so many lives and people are redeemed through Jesus Christ. Though it is only a way to salvation (i.e Jesus Christ), people encountered Jesus differently (different situations, different time). That is why we do not understand how the work of God does magnificently.
In conclusion, I believe we, as children of God, ought to do something different too.
Ecclesiastes 11:5
"As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things."
