The static and dynamics of it all

The earth is revolving, so are the planets and the whole wide world, but there you a constant. Let me stop being cryptic. It is just that this is just one of those perfectly imperfect days. You come down to the office, which by itself is becoming a mammoth task and then you see that there are so many changes happening around you, which of course does not include you at all . Person A is traveling, Person B would be leaving owing to “personal constraints” and Person C has decided to pursue other interests while yet another Person D has decided to come back for good (whose good his/her own or mine??). And there you are, as always, saying those very many byes or in a few cases “Hi, so how was the weather in England, Germany Switzerland etc etc”. It sometimes gives me these feelings of “deja ju”, have been there and done it so many times that it comes as second nature to me.
The world seems to be going past you making this whoosh sound and there you are, not part of any of that flux. You are always the static presence in every one of those treats, “Hey! Have a ball! ” exclamations, part of the so-called coveted gift choosing committee but there you go away from all the dynamics of change. I can see those raised eyebrows and the thin smile on each of your countenances pronouncing “This, my dear, is Life for you!”
