天越高,心越小

puzzled about this phrase, shouldnt our heart be more open (bigger) as we expand our horizon? what does the '小' here mean? 小 as in petty-ness, 小胸狭窄, or 小 as in emotionless? 天越高 definitely means the bigger our horizon is or understanding of the world is, does this phrase mean that they more knowledge we know the more we lost track of our initial goal of learning in this field and got carried away by other people's interpretation and theories that we have lost ourselves in the process? Or does it mean that the more we understand the world, the more we got emotionless and felt no pinch of the less fortunate, because one mountain is shorter than another? Or that the more we are aware about how big is the world, the more we are afraid to show off and we tend to be more cowardly and retreat back into our shells? Or simply means that the more we are aware of how big is the world, the more we are aware that we are rather small? hmm.... now i dont even know what 心 refers to.... -_-"....

Anyway, been addicted to 'Undercover Boss', I think it's really awesome to see that there are still out there in the world that are dedicated about their work, contented about their situation, and have not much moaning but stayed optimist and endured their living condition. Through them I'm more determined and convinced that the world is still rather beautiful, that people are still generally awesome.

They have reassured me that our dedication and love and passion in whatever we are doing will pay off one day, and that would be really wonderful, yes I'm still keen of working in the student care field especially those in the upper primary and lower secondary, where there are most cases of deviance and rebellion, and thus is precisely what we are for, to help and guide this kids, even if we let it be, we can at least prevent them from straying off too far.

I think it's really great for those bosses to step down for a week and be one with those in the entry level jobs of their companies, and experience what the company really needs, what the customers really need, who the company really needs. This way also the monetary distribution would be more fair in terms of dedication and hardwork, and will definitely boost the worker's morale.

However I do think that there is a need for those int he entry level job to have a little experience of the stresses and job scope for the higher position, about what they must manage, how to think ahead, how to deal with situations, this way they would feel more dedicated to work hard too after seeing how dedicated are their bosses.

天若有情天亦老, in utopia, there will be no emotion, no empathy, no connections, no boundaries, no life..... What a wonderful world it still is.....
