The Coursing of Tides

Everything has a purpose. We cannot always have all the things we want. There are some things that are not meant to be. Some things will not be granted to us no matter how hard we work for it. I always believe in destiny and our capacity to veer that destiny. Being denied of the most desired interim HR manager job opportunity can frustrating. However, not getting the things we want does not make us less of a human being. Instead, this will help us grow and will remind us of the wisdom taught by the experience. All we need to do is to appreciate and have a level headed mind set to get on with our lives. We are the solicitor of our own universe. The things that are happening around us will not completely control us, we always have our will of choice to balance the symmetry of life's destiny. The world is ours, and we are of the world.

Drive Trips

I am really liking the speed right now. I used to be afraid of crossing the streets. When I was just a kid, i had an accident with a passing truck on the road. Perhaps that left me the trauma that had haunted me for many years. As I grew up, i began to enjoy travelling and visiting natural getaways. This has brought me a lot of time on the road. Unconsciously, these trips ultimately became my healing therapy. I learned to enjoy a road sport of skate boarding and it has helped me regain the confidence that I had once had and lost on the road. I learned how to drive and i enjoyed it as well. Now, i can say that I am completely healed from that road accident. I am now beginning to dream of driving great distance. Speed drive on Los Angeles driveway gates and central highways. I never thought that adrenaline rush is such a an exhilaration.

Turning of Tides

Calamities would always have two sides of the story. It is a very absurd idea to believe that every calamity is a punishment for some political and religious dispute. I'd rather say that is a cause and effect situation. With the recent flood that had happened in Manila last week, i think that nature took its toll this time. Flood is not a result of a bill being pass in congress or a religious dogma against reproductive health. Instead, it is a natural calamity that can cause massive destruction which does  not spare even expensive Scottsdale lighting. Flood is a result of heavy rain without any appropriate water irrigation or stuck waterways. The country has witnessed the wrath of flood especially in the city. Many gave the most peculiar and twisted reasons of how the flood occurred, which shows how how imaginative Filipinos could be. It has taken its course and many families are now suffering. Perhaps most of them are wondering if it could have been different if they took seriously the pledge for taking care of the environment.

Paying the Crosses

Sometimes in life we don't actually get to have a choice. As much as we cannot choose our parents, we cannot choose our religion upon baptism. It is one of the many things that needs to be decided by our parents. It pretty much makes up about them being not able in choosing baby gender of a child. If religion is something that i could choose then perhaps i wouldn't sign myself up for any religion unless i would be mature enough to decide which religion to follow or if I would really be following one. This practice is the earliest form of influencing and controlling a society. Religion and spiritual or philosophical beliefs can be so grand that it can be overwhelming at times. Of course I still appreciated and thanked my parents for making a choice about what they think is going to be best for me. Perhaps what i needed to do right now is to carry on to be able to find a path where I can be my own religion.

Most Industrious

Home is a comforting idea. When the day is over we usually cannot wait to be home and lazily lay on the couch as a personal reward for a long day's work. I just admire rich people who takes work as their breathing air. The vigor and the industriousness is very inspiring. How I wish that I could have that passion to work not just for money. However with the way on how the society works today, work is imperative to survive. It seems that from the simplest job of washing the cars to being professional fertility doctors, money has generally become the main motivation. The old age principles of vocation and volunteerism have long gone. We are a world of workers. Some began working with the idealism of their personal passion. But as time change, life has become tough. The tough becomes tougher and we need to earn to sustain for our daily living. The society has dictated the system of workers.

Stepping Up

It is important not to lose our dreams. As a woman do we really have to give up on our dreams when the time comes that we will bear a child? Some people just give up easily on dreams. As much as i would agree that a mother's life is not hers upon rearing a child, i also believe that a stable conviction of believing in ones personal dream is necessary to be able to have a healthy attitude. Having a healthy attitude is very much needed for a constructive perspective of the self. A self who has a constructive perspective is more likely capable of providing a solid parental conviction. This the reason why it is not necessary to give and forget the self when the call of motherhood comes. Yes, life changes and all that we can trust in surviving these changes is a fulfilled self. A self ready to conquer any dreams for the sake of her child. You can actually fix your shortcomings in life just like how credit repair program can fix you credits.  

The Moving Job

It would be really great to see the world. For me making money out of traveling and writing is the most ideal job in the world, especially if you love to travel and write. The good thing about turning these interests into a sustaining job is that you don't get bored about it. There is no pressure because travel and writing is like coffee and cream. It perfectly goes well together. There are many job options in in being a travel writer. You can make books, provide content writing, or earn from making travel blogs. I can't even imagine it as a job. It is simply perfect. To me being a travel writer is not a job, instead it a lifestyle. What more could you get from that? Living on travel trailer and chase the sunsets with a pen and paper. I hope I could be travel writer someday and I hope I can share these dreams with all the people that I love.
