WhatsApp Pages - The Girl That Left!

Perfect beginning...
Where do I start? About a two months ago I joined a happy WhatsApp group. I shall not mention the name. However, its characteristics were your typical girly, warm, fun filled happy women giving tonnes of advice about every day topics and things up and about the city.

Left...
Today, a frequent happy member of theirs displayed a workshop class that she hoped to get clients for within The Hague, The Netherlands. This was not to their 'liking' or should I say, the admins list of 'prefered' items. Poor lady got told off. The admin of the group politely (not told as politely...) told her that, "This is a chat group. We do not encourage marketing oneself. Supposing all of us were to do the same, there will be no room for chating?"

The groups...
As much as I am still part of these women in this diverse chat groups of WhatsApp origins, I could not help but to wonder just how sometimes we join Whatsapp groups without caring to note the decorum in which they operate and if we do sometimes go about angering persons in various chat fora without giving much thought.

The Lesson...
Next time before joining all those social media chats and groups, I urge you to take a deep inward check as to what you are getting yourself into. Please don't be the girl that left.

Tickled by Time...

The humans of the Netherlands have no time. Do adhere to come on time always. Wherever you have to find yourself designate about two hours to get there. Anything may go wrong, the tram might stop, a storm might begin, plan ahead of time. When making office appointments arrive on time. You would rather be five minutes late and alert your boss or the individual you intend to meet then be five minutes early. Get the difference though, people and the transport system work differently, catch the train, bus or whatever you may hop on in good time. In case you are early to most office appointments you will be left entertaining yourself not to magazines or music but to no one. No one will ask, 'how are you may I help you' until the time you/they suggested to meet. Trust me they are not being rude, these lovely humans of the Netherlands, are practicing the art of time keeping. That goes for showing up at peoples homes for dinner. If the dinner begins at 6.30pm arr...

No One...

No one will make you happy, Only you can make 'you' happy What is it that you want poor soul? Where do yo want to go? What gives you happiness? You alone know You alone can pen it down You alone can wish in the reality you wish to see You alone have power to re-focus your tomorrow So do that thing that sparks joy Find it at all costs Do it now... Do it well...Do it forever Create your happy every day dear soul

Organized People...

Staying in the Netherlands will get you on to some fine habits. Lesson number one is being organized. Everything  and everyone walks in a straight line. The birds, trams, trains, people, bicycles, municipal council, shops, houses, you get it, the list goes on. So when you come here please mind your own business and walk in a straight line. Don't  forget to get your daily does of an essential paragraph that will save your day. Yours truly, Paragraph Lady- Trony
