In one replay episode of OFW Diaries, the show featured a former OFW who
worked in an Arab country for more than 10 years I think (too bad I forgot his name). He now owns a spa
business and a mall in Pampanga. Damn! I wonder how he did it. I was so
inspired by his story that I wanted to be like him. I wish that one day I will
own a company that will create jobs for many hardworking, persevering and
deserving Filipino people. This is my ultimate dream in life. At present, our
micro business has two employees from a poor family, young but honest and dedicated.
I wish to see their lives improved. But our business, nowadays, isn’t doing well.
Sometimes, we’re thinking it is such a waste of time. But the thought of
letting them go is a huge emotional struggle knowing that their measly income
is putting food in their table. I’m 28, three more years I’m out of the
calendar. I wonder if I still have enough time to fulfill my ultimate dream. Yesterday,
I visited POEA website and found out that EMSI has eleven Job Orders. It made
me so sad because despite the double digit numbers I didn’t hear any word from them. What’s wrong
with my resume!!! Don’t they know I don’t have any plans to be an immigrant or
hide once my contract ends. I just want a job that can make my pocket fat and from
there I will work hard until I see my dream come true. Now, I must admit I’m
emotionally weak, with no concrete direction. So, help me God. Give me the
wisdom and strength to discern the path that you have prepared for me long long
time ago.

Bitten by a Snake
I watch Survivor Philippines. Not a big fan but I catch it when no one is
sitting in the couch. I extremely enjoy how the castaways battle for one more day. Undiscovered
strengths become prominent. But there is one thing that I couldn’t comprehend- issues
about betrayal. I’m sure before one becomes a castaway he must have an idea how
this game is played by some. I just find it so odd that some still get surprise
when they fall in a pitfall and realize that they have been victimized by a culprit…or
should I say strategist and wiser?
Just maybe… because I have not tried a life in an island and battle for TUMATAGINTING NA TATLONG MILYONG PISO!!!

Reverse Psychology
This is a tweet from Bro. Mike Vinas. The first time I read it I fell in love with it instantly.
Let's be addicted to Hope (not the cigarette).Then I saw this in Google Images...
Sure, you have the right to smoke, burn your entire internal system. Just don’t pollute my lung even more. I don’t have much to buy Montelukast for the rest of my life. So expensive. But if money doesn't matter to you, yeah, keep smoking. Burn money. Kill yourself softly. Just don't regret later...

Joker, Is that you?
It’s just so irritating to hear stories about people who after willingly lending you his hand will one day show you a list of debts you never knew you owed. Just when you thought the business partnership is anchored in genuine friendship, be ready for a big surprise that might just change your faith in human’s real character. Suddenly, you become skeptical on what's behind the mask of every stranger you meet.

Helpless
In Animal
The three crying kittens outside are
disturbing. If only I can breastfeed. If only there’s an RH bill for animals. I’m
a PRO for sure.
Joyful Mystery
In Animal
My son, Mio, never fails to amaze me. He knows exactly when I’m preparing his meal behind a closed door. Watta smart dog! I’m a proud mama!!!
