Reddish Life in Halusky Land

Reddish Life in Halusky* Land

Once upon a time there was a decent girl called Sincap** living in Pierogi Land. She didn’t have proper job therefore she was really sad. The nature of her current job was inappriopriate to her personality and eagerness to help people. She couldn’t jump and breathe properly.

The days were passing  and Sincap started to wonder what can help her to find the proper way, path to follow in her reddish life.

While talking with her forest friends, she realized that she could attend some meetings and learn from others how to develop skills and be useful for others.

Then, one day while eating peanuts, Misza***, her good friend told her that there was a course perfect for her.

„It will help you develop your skills and find proper way to follow!” he claimed.

Sincap decided to attend these classes after deep research and reading. Shortly after, she met many others  who were not sure of what they would like to do in the future or wanted to learn more about the other aspects of the world.

Whole group had someone special who was taking care of them: Mrs Owl - wise and experienced teacher with a lot of knowledge.

Sincap was analysing her skills and abilities and asking herself what she would like to do, what she can offer to others.

Sincap was attending the classes, studying a lot and reflecting on her life priorities, while eating her favourite pierogi. Slowly, she started to realize her weaknessess and strengths.

Some issues were completely new for her so she was struggling with understanding them. On the other hand, plenty of information sounded and looked familiar and she really enjoyed reading and listening about them.

From time to time she was scared or confused because of lack of understanding some processes. She was sure of her ability to understand these information sooner or later, though.

Then, on one sunny day, she got a leaf with information that she has been invited for a meeting related to job she applied for. Jumping and screaming, she went to share these lovely news to her new friends.

What was her dissapointment when  Mr Racoon – hard working postman informed her that the meeting was cancelled and she has no job now.

Sincap sat down on the grass and started to wonder what to do.

Mrs Sowa taught her that every difficult situation should be threated not as problem but as an opportunity to use new skills and creativeness possessed during experiencing life.

Hef friends - goat and bear  advised her to look for something new, friends from the school also offered help.

After a long while she found a job in Haluskovy land - homeland of  other creatures - friends of pierogi land citizens. Sincap was already in homeland of Knedliki and the job was about helping other people with finding a job so she thought: Why not!

Friends of Sincap didn’t want to let her go to the other land which may be dangerous but they understood that it was a chance for her to learn and get new experience. She also knew their tribe tongue and hoped that this place may provide her an adventure, passion and development.

Indeed, she has started learnig and experiencing the process of helping other with finding a job: searching for candidates, dealing with administering databases, even teaching youngsters how to present themselves when they apply for a job.

Living in Halusky Land was not easy - her reddish fur was standing out of other sights, therefore she didn’t feel comfortable from time to time.

However, there were also other newcomers- different from halusky tribe therefore sincap found support in their small community:  some creatures even wanted to learn her pierogi dialect, therefore she was very happy to teach them.

Being foreign animal was not easy though. Official law was strict and confusing, sincap was having a mess in her head because of all those instructions, regulations and weird exceptions.

Days in Haluskowy Land were passing and sincap started to realize that she wants something more from life. Day by day she started to be aware of the fact that it is not what she was expecting coming here: while searching for a good candidate for job, she had to consider the company needs rather than a creature- candidate needs. She didn’t like it.

Still studying in Mrs Owl School, sincap was preparing her own idea of Peanut House plan: it took her a lot of time to clarify all ideas and predict if this place could bring positive benefit for her and potential creatures coming and enjoying frree time.

Spending plenty of time with writing and creating the background of this place, sincap became a hermit.

What hapened next?

Currently, Sincap is sitting on the grass, enjoying the sun and finishing her peanut house project, while eating halusky. What is in her mind? What will be the next step in her reddish life?

 

She is Still searching her place on the Earth…

However, she already has her biggest weapon in furry paws:  the idea of what she is good at and how she can use it in her professional  life. And that’s all about the awareness.
