Another Story of Beginnings and Endings

We each have our own journeys in our lives. Some beginnings and endings are unavoidable or, let’s say that it’s the way of life. Remember starting your first day at preschool to graduating elementary school? Then you will start another level of education again.    Maybe, I am not alone when I say that I used to be scared when starting new in my life alone. I can still remember when I was accepted to be an apprentice in a manufacturing company a few months after I finished college. It is the first time when I am all by myself. When I started, I always cry at night, and I always woke up feeling down like something is missing. Still, I guess that was me being homesick and new to the environment as well as being with new people I am not familiar with. It makes me smile, looking back on those moments.     Another Story of Beginnings and Endings    One of the great things about being away alone is meeting various kinds of people. I am naturally a shy person ...

Some Things About Me

When you feel happy, some words suddenly pop out of your mind, and if possible, you would want to write them down. It’s like that for me, especially when I am down or feeling lonely. There are so many words that fill my head to the point that I almost thought I am a poet when obviously, I’m not. Well, basically, when I have this rush of emotions, I want to say something or share it.

It has been forever since I am thinking of writing something online


Some Things About Me

Since I am not an outgoing person, I do not have that much circle of friends like others. Also, I remember my father always told me back when I was a child to not be friends with the other kids because he thought they are not a good influence. So, that's why I believe I grew up choosing who to be friends with, and when I do, I get so attached to them. Though most times, I do not care much if they do not want to be with me because I do not have any control for anyone's feelings. That is the cycle for me. I have been a quiet and shy type unless when I am with those who I am comfortable with.

I am not someone who opens up to what I am thinking about or what I want to do, not until I became an adult. Knowing new people at work who have more experiences in life than me, and them sharing their point of view on things that I am concerned about. It is when I learned to confide to other people and ask for their pieces of advice that helps. Since we also have the same perspective on certain things, I think it made it easier for me to act on them. These are just some things about me that I would like to share. Maybe out there, there are also someone like me? 

Why I Started Writing a Blog

It has been forever since I am thinking of writing something online, and I just recently had the guts to do so. I know I am not a doer, and I think I am not someone who is a very initiative on things, well, sometimes. But, when I learned that the constant thing in life is change, suddenly, I realized that I am not really striving for things that make me more fulfilled in the long run. I was so focused on what is good at the moment, which is also fine but recently I want something that is ‘better’ and not just limit it in ‘good’.

That is why I started writing a blog, sharing my thoughts and some of my personal experiences, hoping that it might connect to others. That you are not the only one who feels like that or encountered things that made you frustrated or felt less about you. There is more to living a life, and there is more to growing up as a person. Maybe you made mistakes all over and over again, maybe you failed and failed again. It is okay. Perhaps you were hurt and is hurting again. It is okay to feel the pain, cry, and feel bad about it. However, that does not mean that there will come a time you will learn how to not make mistakes and take responsibility for it. That does not mean that after failing again and again you cannot win; this time you have more strategy and technique that can lead your triumph. While you are feeling the pain and with your swollen eyes, you will heal again over time. Maybe it will take longer, but you will feel happy, and you will love yourself again. In the end, it will be all worth it even if right now, you don’t feel like it.
