The Geese Story

At 1:50am in the morning, my eyes can hardly open anymore since I had an early wake this morning, but still my mind couldn't get off a story I have heard today.

How many of us at times felt alone being in this world? Be it in a relationship or a career path you took on.....

Let me share little of this great story I heard today.

The Geese

Geese are naturally migratory birds with the wintering change. The calls overhead from large groups of Geese flying in V-shaped formation signal the transitions into spring and autumn. In some areas, migration routes have changed due to changes in habitat and food sources.

Now, you may ask why in V-shape? why a specific shape?
It seems like even a bird is smarter than us!
It takes more strength for a goose to fly for such a long journey (the migration) and for long hours. Just like you, driving alone along the highway from one state to another. The journey always seems longer and harder to travel even it is just a 2 hours drive, doesn't it?
What if you have a partner to accompany you along the way? Does the ride seem more light, easy and faster?

One goose will take its fly first, leading the group of geese slowly two accompanying the one and be joined by others. The V-shape formation slowly be formed. The aerodynamic also take place in such formation allowing the geese to fly further and faster.

Wait! This is not yet the end!

Not every bird can stand the whole journey. Along the way, the first (leader) of the group, may slow down, and when that happens, the goose will slowly move to aside of the formation (to be in second or third place) while another one will take over its place to lead the group. If one of the bird is sick or injured, it will probably need to decent and rest, this moment a few of the geese will accompany the injured one to the ground and rest until it is well to fly again. They never leave their 'partner' behind. Go as one, leave as one. So even the one left behind will not have such a hard way to start migrating to afar.

Sometimes along in life when we feel down, it would always be nice to have someone by our side to lift us up, battle with us, going through the thick and thin.
We are never alone, it is us who make us feel alone.

Dear partners, let us stand hand in hand in this business and may we touch more hearts with our sincerity and integrity, pledge to help more others through their thick and thin, up and down times. Remember it is always easier when you have someone to walk along with you.

Ever wonder why a bride always have someone (like her father) to walk her down the aisle? ;)
The courage and strength motivates one to move on together, because you know, you are not alone.

I thank all my business partners and friends who had walked with me in this line. I got lost but I came back strong! More determine and sure of what I want.
Without you guys, I might not even be here today, smiling everyday, being happy over the choice and decision I made.

Friends, remember, no matter what, I am here with you. We will keep moving on, take it slow, don't rest, as long as we keep moving, keep up with the momentum, we will reach our destination, reaching our goals and achieving our dreams.
