Good and Bad.



My columnist friend lost her passport when she was in a business trip in Dubai.

It's a bad thing to lose a passport when you travel.

It's a good thing you can stay behind for a few more days for sight-seeing with all expenses paid by your company.

It's a bad thing to report passport loss and dealing with all those procedures getting back a temporary passport before you can leave for home in a country where does not speak your language.

It's a good thing you lose a passport in a country like Dubai because your passport will not be used by anyone in illegal ways. When they've found your passport they send it to police station.

Life is very much like the flip side of a coin and it would do us well to remember there's always 2 sides to every story just as there are 2 sides to every coin.
