A Greater Reason

It's been a bit long since I posted in this personal blog of mine, a blog about my how I will grow in order to become richer and to fulfill my dreams. As of now, I can say that I'm already rich, I have great friends at work, friends from high school although I'm connected to most of them through text messaging and through facebook chat and status. Also with some of my college friends that also pursuing their chosen careers, where some were my co-workers.

"Co-worker" might sound like working in a construction site building a skyscraper doing physically tiring stuffs (you know what I mean). I can't just think of another word for co-worker, I can't call them office-mates because where not really in office supervising people but rather we're the one whose really in the field. If we were in a war, we're the privates, the front-liners who really has a big chance to be shot and killed. At work, we are the ones that literary in Filipino "nag-aalay  ng dugo at pawis" (sacrificing sweat and blood). Maybe I'm just exaggerating but I just want to emphasize that my work is really tiring as in you have to sweat and sometimes blood spills if there were some accidents, and I thank God that never happens to me.

Last Christmas, we were scheduled to worked from December 24 'til 29. When the Christmas day has come when everyone was with their families celebrating the most important day of the year, I was working doing what I've been doing for over a year. I'm in a graveyard shift, so I came to my Lola's house (Lola means grandmother) to celebrate Christmas there in the morning. I almost forgot how tired I am when I saw her, I think that is what is Christmas is all about, to make love with your relatives and friends to fill-up your weariness. Christmas is the time where I realized how big my family were, from aunties, uncles, cousins, cousins of my mother, brothers and sisters of my grandmother, and so on. At least they don't come in full blast cause I don't how could we all fit in Lola's house although it's fairly big but not big enough. LOL.

I experienced  this is from 8:00 in the morning, the time I arrived at Lola's house 'til 10:30 as I can remember. Why? Because like I said I almost forgot I was tired but just almost, the moment that I lie on bed, a soft and comfty bed, I'm just like a light turned-off, in a snap I was asleep. I just find myself awake I think it was three in the afternoon, I don't know but I still managed to wake-up at that time no matter what time I sleep or at most 10:30am. Maybe that was because of habit.

Then I ate obviously, anyway it's Christmas day and I have to fill-up my emptiness. I was a very skinny boy and many can't believe how large my appetite was, I can't believe it either. This might be some of  my greatest mysteries in life. Then some chit-chat with my relatives while eating. After that, I take a bath and make myself ready for another day of routine work in this very day of Christmas. But before that I sung in a video-oke, a machine where you can choose a song and sing whether the song like you or not. And I like the song, period. LOL.

Because of that frustration to sing, I've waited because there's a list of songs from my fellow frustrated singers before mine. That was also the reason I was left behind by the shuttle bus service. I just smiled and told myself  "'yan pakanta-kanta pa kasi"(tsk, I'm was left because of my frustration in singing).

That Christmas day was a very long day for me, there were so many things that happens during that day. It was a simple yet colorful day to me. Because of my work, I learned now how those parents feel when they are away with their children. My experience was nothing compared to the emotions they brought to longing for their love ones.

With that experienced I find a greater reason why I should persevere to achieve my dreams. My dreams to have enough time and money to share to other people. I have so many things that I want to share with this blog post but it's enough for now.

I just want you to know that the best lessons in life is from life experiences.

One more reason why I can't share more to this blog post is that I have to go school, not to study but to teach, I'm also a school teacher. That's another story, but for now, I really have to go.


Ooops, Happy New Year!!! ^^
