I am really inspired and can relate with the random
thoughts in your blog. You're one of the reason why I put up my blog site,
jezolores.blogspot.com. Some of my posts were versions of the stories you
share. I honestly had a hard time choosing my favorite, because all posts has
it's wonderful highlights. The times when I said "I feel for you!", "I
wish I were on your shoe.", "I wanted to visit that country,
too.", "I hope I can be an inspiration to others." after reading
your blogs. Probably, the post that has great impact in me is "life talks
part one: on purpose" dated 12 November 2007. Same with your experience, 4
years ago, I'm now into "quarter life crisis". I'm new into our work
place and the people around me were older, wiser. Being with them gave me
realizations, that when you grow up, you became more focus on your life's
purpose and goals. When you question yourself if "is it still worth
it?", "is it the right time,right moment?", "is it time for
a change?", "should i go out of my comfort zone?". At 21, I felt
the need to make my own decision, being responsible on my actions, and the
willingness to take risks. Being aware on what's happening in the community,
politics, social issues, and the like. The things you ignore when you were
young eventually became an important part of your world. LIFE. I thank God for
life. This statement from your blog is so true...“remember, every single person
in the world has a different thumbprint. there are no two people alike, at all,
in the whole world! GoD has a reason for doing that! because each and every one
of us has our unique purpose in the world.” That post reminds me that
"Life is amazing, I am amazing, and GOD is the most amazing!" It's
real cool how he created our lives differently yet he made it connected to each
other. God's people may not have the same social status, but he ensures that
one will appreciate and became happy with the life that he gave. I remember a
life talk with my office mate as we passed by a highway. He said "Bakit
kaya ang tao hindi masatisfy sa buhay?" I answered "kasi kinocompare
natin ang life natin sa mas higher satin." He told me "oo
nga,nagrereklamo tayo dahil pagod tayo sa trabaho, pero di ba mas pagod yung
mga street vendor na maghapon nagtatrabaho, but compare their sweldo to us, mas
may karapatan sila magcomplain, pero di ba, tuloy ang buhay nila. He adds
"halimbawa, tayong mga engineer,kapag sinabi natin na sa worker na pangit
yang tiles na yan, palitan mo yan, tapos na yung work natin, may sweldo na
tayo, pero sila magsisimula palang magtrabaho." That talk really moved me,
and made me appreciate those people.
Though life is not perfect, God created us uniquely so we can bring joy,
become an inspiration, teach lesson, and leave mark to each others lives. :)
As for the blog giveaway, I'd love to receive a party at McDonald's. I will give it to the kids of Treehouse Daycare. Treehouse is a volunteer team that gathers children from Muntinlupa every Saturday in Muntinlupa Fire Station for a half day of study,play,eat,fun activities. Those innocent kids, those innocent smiles, they made my life more meaningful and fulfilling. ;) I'd also love to receive the salon day with Alex Carbonell for my aunt. She is with me in the city since 1st year college up to now. She use to provide for my studies and was beside me through ups and tough times in the university because my parents were residing in the province. My aunt is indeed an example of a hardworking person. At 60, she still works almost 24/7, for the welfare of the special children and person with disabilities under Department of Education and at the same time in order to help her pamangkins and apos in financial needs. I hope I can give her the makeover package, that way, I can make her glad in a simple way.
