A Sudden News
First and foremost I'd like to express my apologies if this article wouldn't be written in consistent English, it's just I'm more comfortable sharing my thoughts this way.
I'm just a having my normal morning routine, just a plain black coffee while reading some articles here on read as I was also on my duty sa tindahan namin. Hindi pa rin kasi pwede si nanay na mapagod masyado since bagong opera ang mga mata n'ya. Maraming restrictions and such kaya naman ako muna ang nandito sa tindahan. I'm having my normal morning bilang isang tindera ng biglang pumunta dito sa tindahan ang kapitbahay namin na si Ate Pitchi. She rushly shared this "chika" of her na kakasagap lang daw nya, well actually this weren't the tipikal na chika ng mga marites na tungkol sa buhay ng ibang tao. We were saddened by the news that she brough to us, she said that there's this rumor going on early this morning that one of our neighbhor past away aready. I'm not that close to that person but I still feel sad for her family that she left in this world.
This sad news hugely affects my mood, yung pakiramdam na deep inside of you there's this sadness na hindi mo maintindihan kung bakit mo nararamdaman in the first place. I know that we cannot change the fact that we humans exist to live and die in this world. We were given a chance by our Almighty God to live to the fullest of the life that we desired but this life that He gave us must live on the right path to be able to succeed in achieving the right to enter His Kingdom on the eternal life.
This got me thinking, do I live in a way that God wants me to be? Am I on the right path? There are so many that if's happening on my mind right now. Hindi ko alam kung hanggang kailan ako dito sa mundo as well as those na malapit sa puso ko. Ang daming flashbacks na nangyayari ngayon sa aking utak, yung guilt, regrets and even the disappoinments that I experience this past few years ay muli ulit kumakatok sa akin. Al of these cannot be retrace to set it all rights, the only thing that I have now is the present were offer various of choices on different paths, sana lang nasa tama ang mga desisyon ko.
Indeed we only live once, and that one opportunity was given to us to take failures as well as use these failures to grow and be a man of value.
