The problem with building dreams is that as I am writing and planning it down, someone is else is out there, actually doing it! What does one do with great dreams? When do I say, stop, it is not possible, or go on, everything’s possible if I want it to happen? There’s no one to encourage me and keep me to my dreams but there is also no one to pull me down back to earth.
Hay- I could go on and on with my excuses. Thing is, friends who know me well, know that I don’t accept excuses, I don’t make excuses and I sure as hell don’t want to live my life making excuses. Pffsh. As if I’m not busy and stressed enough. Hay never na, kaya ko ito.
I haven’t gotten around to making my new year’s resolutions. Yes, I still make them- I make resolutions all the time, new year or not. Since my new job last October, it has been a whirlwind of new things to learn, great new expectations and a great deal of responsibility. At times overwhelming but I always tell myself that everything happens for a reason- both the good and the bad. I just realized that most of the stress and anxiety I’ve had the past months was mostly due to putting off things and issues. Now I’ve learned that there truly is a time and place for everything- and everyone. I’ve learned not to say yes to everything and instead really pare it down to basics- I cannot please everyone and not be everything to everybody. At the same time, I learned that people are really selfish in nature- we are, after all, always looking out for ourselves but it takes a special grace to be able to transcend that, what with all our personal difficulties, to actually be selfless and help others.
So for now, here’s my new year’s wish for everyone:
1- Patience
2- The grace of selflessness
3- Hope
and dahil dapat may Ms.U na answer-
4- Love
