A Year After

March 30, 2011

      Me and a friend in a text conversation:

My friend: Kamusta?

Me: Am I a failure?

My friend: me ganon? ano bang personal goals mo? It’s too early to judge whether you or your life is a failure.

        My friend is correct. It’s too early to judge myself for failing.  Choosing a career path different from what  I took in college is not failing. Not wearing the white uniform does not imply that I am a failure. Having no nursing license does not put me in the quagmire of losing.

       A year after I have graduated, I have my own job which I enjoy doing.I am earning not just financial compensation but most importantly, real life experiences from the corporate world. Not bad for a young professional.

     Though there is financial gain, I can say that money can not replace my passion for nursing, for paintings, for poems  and for proses.

     I envy those who wear the white uniform, seriously. Whenever there is a chance for me to hold a paint brush and dip it in a pail of paint, no second-thinking, I will grab it. This blog site is the materialization of my love for poetry and proses. 

     I will let the fire burn within me.  I will let that love grow. Step by step, I will be able to fix things that I need. I will be able to organize my life. I will be wearing the white uniform, I will be having my nursing license, I will be creating a new painting and this blogsite will stay updated as long as I continue to live. 

    I will love and continue loving. I will.
