Trip
I am going to a two-day trip starting today and tomorrow in King city, Ontario. I got invited to join CVG 5 year stratigic planning:)I have never been in such big scale meeting before..I think it is a great experience, kind of remind me of the presidential messages and plans in Iran that was mostly was 5 years based;)..the funny thing is I am the youngest person there and every one else is about my dad's age!!it's funny it took a while to become friends with the president of this group. He is a quite person but at the same time he is active and reinforces his visions ofcourse with taking others input in also. Its exactly the story of the fox and Le Petit Prince in our case. He never talked to me, he would just look at me and listen but never a word, but I always greeted him and all but never he would respond. I got to the conclusion that he didn't like me for some reason that I didn't know. Although I was lucky to have the rest of the group that were very friendly with me and Steve who is sooooooo helpful and nice. Now to my suprise in the last gathering of CVG, he joined a small group of us who were talking and suddenly asked me, if I am going to go to the offsite meeting with them!!!!I was shocked and suprized, because he talked to me directly!! I knew of the meeting but I thought may be I shouldn't go, but he personally asking was astonishing!!!the guy who never talked back to me!!anyways I said, I haven't got the email and Steve jumped in and said that he will forward it to me:)..it was a very interesting situation..I think he is the only guy in my life that I have as in that book puts the expression:"ahli kardam"!!
