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.

Yup. If you consider what you are doing right now as worthless may only mean that you are failure. But if you continue struggling for your goals then you haven’t failed.

As long as there is life, there is hope. Never forget that.
