Working from home, I was able to save time, money and energy from traveling. Though our house is not always conducive to a work-from-home setting, I'm still thankful that I still have a job. I just need to adapt.
This year, I became less interested of things. Dala na din siguro na laging nasa bahay lang. While some are tempted in buying a lot online, I only bought books, skin care products, and home essentials. No clothes, cosmetics, nor gadgets. Anyway, that's not the point of this blog.
Before turning into this age, I took a big leap in my career and started working with P&A Grant Thornton. I’ve always wanted to work in an auditing firm, but I was rejected twice after graduation in 2014. Maybe because I don't have a license, nor was active to any org during college, nor did well on interviews, nor have a meaningful experience yet that time, I don’t know. So I set aside that desire and worked with private companies. Seven years later, I got an offer. It took me seven years to finally get in here. But it made me realize that sometimes, delays and detours are fortunate. The waiting and preparing process was very worthwhile. It was a wonderful journey working with Masaito Homes and DMCI Homes- which are the organizations that shaped me to a professional I am today. My new beginning also made me realize na bata pa ako (medyo, hahaha) and it’s never too late to start over. But what I really wanted to share in this blog are the sentiments and realizations of a woman that just turned 27:
1. That a fulfilled dream is the starting point of a new, bigger, bolder dream.
2. That God makes everything beautiful in its time. Kaya kung hindi pa beautiful, hindi pa time.
3. That we should embrace negativities because our greatest lessons come out of pain, every problem is purpose-driven, and all breakouts eventually lead to breakthroughs.
4. That tears are prayers too.
5. That's it's okay to outgrow people as you age and retain the real ones.
6. That we should always do what makes us happy, but don't hurt people.
No lengthy blog as these points are pretty much self explanatory. Ngayong 27 na ako, gusto ko na lang maging masaya. Broad goal, yes, but I have big God.
Thank you everyone,
