Nap Time Rocks!

looking back before i leap

in the next couple of weeks my life is about to change. not to be too melodramatic about it, but it really is a big deal for me. i can’t explain the jitters or the butterflies in my stomach that this big change is giving me. but i am trying to be as nonchalant about it as much as possible, as if it were meant to happen anyway. you know, sooner or later.

it shouldn’t be so hard, leaving your comfort zone right? at least that’s what i tell myself and at least i’ve proven it before. i once stood at a bus stop along a major highway, with nothing more but my back pack and a lot of guts. i lived and breathed in a town that i didn’t know existed until my work took me there. and i conquered disappointing loves, and really stubborn ones too.

and that’s not all. i’ve had so many challenges and learnings, i’ve lost count; and i’ve collided with so many walls, at first i wasn’t sure if i would ever be put back together again. but here i am, living to tell an adventure of a lifetime.

thinking about everything i’ve gone through makes the challenge now so harmless. thinking about it makes me feel nostalgic and sentimental. but even more so, thinking about it reminds me that in every little thing, there’s always a bigger purpose.

i may have been as stubborn as a 2-year old learning to say “No” for the first time, but ever so persistently, He reminds me that there’s always a better way. that my way isn’t always the best one. i’ve tried to be profound and all that, but nothing beats the things you get for letting stupidity ruin parts of your life.

and this is the best part about being human. you live, you learn. you breathe, you learn, you cry, you learn. you love, you learn.

and oh yeah, before i forget, i want to thank the glamorous mommies: vannie, joanjoyce, and mommy ruby for the loads of awards! my brain is on temporary maintenance mode so i was only able to grab one of the badges. hehe. nevertheless, thank you so much
