My German boss left us yesterday. His two-year secondment just finished and now it is all gone. He was a really nice man, a good analyst and professional. A boss who appeared only when he needed you, but meanwhile he knew everything and realised if you had problems or you needed some help. He was really nice to everyone, he was always frank and just. He was the best boss i have ever seen or known.
A month ago i thought that i have plenty of time to talk with him and maybe even to work with him, but nothing like that happened. He hardly has been in Budapest. I realised only yesterday that for almost a year i didnt have any engagement with him. I just wanted to ask him if there was a particular reason for that, but i couldnt manage it.
Now i really understood that you need to grab the moment and take everything out of it. You shouldnt wait for the next appropriate moment, if there is a possibility you need to do it right then. There might not be an other opportunity at all.
I wept several times even in the office. I know it is part of life, people come and go. But always those leave whom you like the best. Why is it so?
I thought that i will have time. You feel ashamed when you didnt live the moments to the upmost level. Then why dont we just do things in this manner?
"Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments. Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole. Life is a succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed."
Coelho
