good portent on a maundy thursday

IF you want to build a ship, don't herd people together to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.

good portent on a maundy thursday

March 21, 2008

after some hasty planning i finally found the time to meet a friend at her office in RCBC Plaza (yep, apparently they had a lot of deliverables for this day too). as expected, there wasn’t much traffic so i got there rather quickly.

we proceeded from her spacious work area to the roomy office pantry (about 10 times the size of ours), which had a good panoramic view of some parts of makati. after brewing some coffee we settled on a corner table. during a brief lull, we looked up and saw this remarkable view.

it looks like your regular late-afternoon urban skyscape, except for the rainbow that arched across the sky.

from our vantage point the view looked like a nicely framed, postcard-perfect backdrop as we discussed a few things about our respective work and common friends. i guess it’s such a rare occurrence to see a rainbow these days that we couldn’t help but stop talking every once in a while to admire the view.

maybe it’s a bit ironic that this celestial spectacle should appear on a Maunday Thursday, of all days. it would’ve seemed more appropriate had it appeared on a day like Easter Sunday — you know, to signal things like hope, renewal, resurrection, etc. or something like that — but all things considered, that’s just mere quibbling. i’ll take and appreciate what i can get.

and if this portent is a signal that something good lies ahead, i think i’ll take that as a good sign.

a closer view…

Share and Enjoy:

Ang ganda nung rainbow!!! Last Halloween, nagpunta din ako sa RCBC, and grabe, super inggit ako sa workplace and pantry nila. And the office I went to has a very large TV and lot of cushion and beanbags around…wish…wish…wish…

TPS i drooled over their workplace the whole time i was there: well-planned modular layout and each workstation has only two people in it! other highlights: the big windows, the spectacular view, proximity of good restaurants, comfy sleeping room! *sigh*

zarine, i wish we could all work there
