Powerplay

Powerplay seems to be a sub-plot in a working environment. Everyday is a new day where some nitty gritty detail sneaks a page and adds dimensions to this. Tread on a couple of sore toes? Nary a care... in the way The Sole survivor (in all sense), will bemoan that its all part of Treading to keep above the water. Because essentially, everyone wants to feel important, feel like they have a say in contributing to a decision. Its really a part of human nature, to feel not only validated, but also recognised. From what i hear, this Rub-shoulders thing is the office jargon for building rapport with anyone higher up. Gee, I thought it is what we do, pre-CNY at Chinatown.
Anyways, thats besides the point.


What i meant is that the Cooks and the broth situation is doable in school. Like a democratic tutorial group. Spoilt it? Never mind, cook it again. But equivocal rights would really be The Booty call for the State Of Anarchy. To put it crudely, this back-end trouble aint gonna work out. Thats why its interesting to draw this intricate play to a deck of cards. A couple too much of a Joker; remove them before the game starts. 4 kings in a intra-group usurping rotation, 4 stinging femmes vying to be the resident queen bee, the brawns and the Ace of brains, also included in this fray: some less prominent players, but nonetheless important in the context.



Exactly. It is with this eclectic mix of profiles that makes a deck of cards a game of utmost flexibility. Ain't that what they always say...that life is like a deck of cards?



Gag me some historical cliche. :)



My take home: Gentleness is a virtue that is SO underated. But its a virtue that He speaks much emphasis on. I always had an impression that Gentleness is essentially a kow-tow business. Its really not like that. I guess it being the multiple of Love, pushes it up to a higher order. Not easy & not many can develop this considerable latitude. But reality is such that the lamb finds itself, subsequently stewed into mutton chop. Where is the balance?
