On Life's Vast Ocean We Sail

Ever noticed bubbles on fast moving stream or candle flickering in strong winds! That’s how our life has become amidst this fast paced world.
Standing still watching ships sailing in high tide jogs my memory on how a little girl used to make paper boats and fake waves to test its survival. Fancying those thrills life happened and the boat became ‘she’ herself. Inside the boat there are people restful doing their piece of work. One pumps dreams, the other drives them. They fall, they strive, they fight and stand, yet the boat stays firmly dedicated betwixt all roughs and tumbles.

Sounds of back stream hitting the shaft and ship whistles fading in the blue like dims of ice cream and school bells in the ears… How can she not miss her dockyard? She is sailing from ports to harbors but that’s not the destination – the place she’s come from. The flashbacks wind-up at her on how she got assembled with grains of love, struggles and mettle. Ships were made with hands back then; away from disruptions rousing the loss of personal touch now.

As they rightly say- A smooth sea never made skillful sailors! The ship doesn’t wait to go in water, yet it waits for the stream to trigger its float. And we wait for challenges to set off our competencies.

To reach my ultimate port I will sail, I will sail on in this middle passage, through winds and darkness. I will do my best to keep my boat steady and my sails full.

BREXIT AND ITS IMPACT ON HR IN ORGANIZATIONS

Brexit - The British Exit. June 23, 2016, referendum whereby the Brits voted to exit the European Union (EU). EU is a 28 member states, holding policies for easy movement of people, goods, services, and capital within the internal and multinational markets; for taking up trade and diverse ways for entitlement. This has led to sovereign issues as some EU leaders claim that aiding the refugees entering from other states is becoming a moral and national issue for their safety and security. The second most important factor amongst all rose as the difference between the lives of southern Europeans and Germans who enjoy 4.2% unemployment. While Europe as a whole is considered to have a stagnated economy, United Kingdom (UK) intended the proposal. So now when the UK has voted 51.9% for their withdrawal from the EU, let’s understand how hefty its upshots can be on the Human resources (HR) in organizations. Employment Laws: Neither the employer will change nor employees,...
