A Very Special Mother’s Day May 10, 2009

The Battle of the East and West–PACMAN vs. HATTON May 4, 2009

Like in every rally strike of drivers for fare hike and gasoline price rollback, jeeps, buses, and some other vehicles seems to pull over; with some establishments which appears like almost deserted. And it’s like a unity for peace when crime rates, accidents and other incident reports decrease. The world seems to stop and these [...]

Swine Flu Outbreak April 28, 2009

The new flu strain is said to be a combination of pig, bird and human viruses that humans have no natural immunity to fight against it. But H1N1 virus rather than Swine Flu or Swine Influenza Virus (SIV) is the appropriate term for this newest virus formation as it can be transferred among humans rather [...]

YEAR-END POST

The countdown has already begun and the year 2008 is almost over, a few hours more and another year is yet to come. The countdown reminds me of how precious time is and so I learned how to treasure every moment in my life where every minute and every second together with my loved ones really counts.

I had fruitful days for this year…I guess, to have been exposed, as a newly graduate student from two different jobs in a row like having been previously employed in Telus and then currently employed in Mt. Carmel was already a nice moved for my career. Having been exposed in another field or industry made me realize a lot of things; that there are other job opportunities that I can grab which have great benefits as well. It made me realize my potentials and capabilities to do other things. It allowed me to meet other people though I was not that sociable like the others and those people I met have different talents and gifts that are unbelievable. The experience I had from the previous work I had was considered irreplaceable and I wish to go back if only I can turn back the time.

But then more than any of that, what was really good about this year which I do believe the most important thing for me was the relationship I had with my family remains intact and gets even much stronger as all those trials passed by. And of course thanks for the blessing of good health for me and for my family, which I believe one of the greatest wealth, we can receive from above.

Year 2008 was so much like a big drama for my life, unseen by the people just behind the scene of an unknown film…My world has gone through a lot of twists and turns and I had gone through a lot of changes. The challenges I faced with the work I had and the people I was with made me so much tough…probably even tougher enough to face another chapter or episode of my own journey for the next year to come. My world has turned upside down where the image of various emotions runs through my mind. There were joy, laughter, sorrow, and pain. There were sufferings and sacrifices and all of them were rooted from love and that is the love for one another and that makes the world goes round.

I started with nothing if without my family working behind me. Good thing I was able to start my Nursing career for this year. I knew it was never easy but that became a big challenge for me and I never loose hope for me just to get hired. My prayer was granted though it was not immediate. And so I believe that things happen for a reason and it happens unexpectedly. I thought I wouldn’t be able to make it…I strived hard just to make everything right. I really thanked God for I knew he was there beside me as I tried to walk through those great trials and challenges in the beginning of my nursing journey.

I laughed, I cried I talked and I walked with the people around me…I saw who is true and whose heart is faking…in the end, true friends remain and they are the one who really cares. I have seen different faces; I learned how to analyze those fake smiles and fake faces…those are the people I gave personality of doubt and they are the ones who taught me how to recognize them…

I was in silence for quite a long time and the silence I had brought me into a broken peace and serenity, which I never thought, would happen. I was also given the personality of doubt that led to a silent war. There were criticisms, judgments and I was pulled down… and still, I tried to place my feet on the ground. I was confused, and in the darkness I cried… still I tried to keep everything to myself. Thanks to my friends and family, my loved ones who really care. They always put a smile on my face. They gave me enough reason to continue and to go on, to fight and to live a life in a fullest. And most of all, thanks to God for always standing right beside me and I know He will never leave me as I walk through my life’s journey.

By the end of this year, I would always be the same person I used to be who loves to walk in silence, peace and serenity…whose heart belongs to God and to her family.
