Administration - the leech

The burden of handling the finances and all that matters related to administration is slowly getting heavier by the day. This whole afternoon I spent calculating back and forth the expenses and the durability of investing in a new water purifier or repairing the existing one. Add to that the whole economics of accounting. Then there is the staff saving funds which though is the total responsibility of the staff themselves, they look up to you for advice and operation of accounts - knowing little that I am no better than they.

However one good thing amidst all this is that the Brothers are busy. They have their hands full and hence I need not be too anxious about what new gimmicks they are upto. I know that they will be around the study hall buried in their books... all for a good reason.

The worst thing about administration, as I realised while in the Provincial house itself, is that it saps all your creative and productive energy. Entangled in a whole web of economics and finances, there is little energy left for some serious thought or planning something out of the way for the community.
