Hi!

Normally people are gentle in most of the time. But there are some people who suddenly stir your otherwise boring life. They may seem aggressive and sometimes even a little dangerous, but they also end up teaching you valuable lessons.

One such person I met while working in my store. He was a middle‑aged customer who had a problem with a product. He spoke so hastily that I couldn’t understand what he was trying to say. I became a bit nervous, so I called my manager and stepped aside. The manager handled the situation in a very professional way. He spoke calmly, resolved the issue and managed the customer with ease. I learned that such situations can be handled if we maintain our calm and composure.

In public life, we have to deal with all kinds of people. Some are gentle, some are shy and some are very aggressive. We rarely have problems with gentle or shy people, but aggressive people can shake your confidence and make you feel nervous. With confidence, knowledge and good communication skills, even these people can be handled safely.

Sometimes I wish I had a genie. He or she could handle my problems and I could live a peaceful and healthy life. I don’t wish for millions; I simply want a calm and happy existence. Maybe my weakness is the reason behind this wish for having a genie. I need to overcome that weakness. There are no such things as genies. They exist only in our imagination. But what if they were real? Could they could fulfill our wishes and give us a better life? It's difficult to say because nothing comes free in this world. If such a thing have existed in real life, there would surely be consequences beyond our ability to handle. So perhaps it’s good that such things are not found in real life.

With love from Erica.
