"Well, being who you are is also about accepting what yourself really is"

By the way, I am just a simple woman, living in the simple world with a simple family. We are six (6) siblings in the family. Two boys and four girls, but sadly our brother and sister were already in another world. It is what we call heaven. I am the fourth child in the family. I'm 21 years old. A second year student in college. Taking the course, Bachelor of secondary education major in Physical Education.

Becoming a professional teacher is one of my dreams in life. Teaching is not my passion, it's my profession and goal to help students, adhering to the importance of the teaching profession. Encourage every child and push them to achieve their own dreams and become a better person.

By the grace of God, I have been given a chance to continue my study. I don't even know what tomorrow will bring and what circumstances I'll face. Yet, I will strive harder and cheer myself to fulfill this journey with limitless dreams.

When I was young, I loved dancing and singing to my favorite song as video-karaoke was on. From elementary to high school, being a dancer was my hobby. Back then, playing was my first impression for the day just as a kid. Until life removed all the innocence in me. My world and thoughts changed and I started dreaming like a mature woman.

I also loved playing guitar and traveling to other places. Taking pictures while watching the wonderful views and relaxing myself from stress. By now, I used to sing in our church but still my voice is adjusting to cope up with the hardest part of the songs.

If I we're choose, I would prefer to dance than to sing with my ungood voice quality. But then, singing from the heart to glorify the Lord is more important.

Love Yourself!

Did you experience feeling unloved? I've been there also. I easily get hurt when I feel that nobody cares and loves me. Until now it makes me feel that way either, still choosing and loving myself matters more to me. My mind reminds me to not care about what others may think about me. Even they say I'm selfish or unfair. But for me, choosing to love myself first is more important than anything else.

I'm a happy and joyful person. Smiling is the best way I used to escape and hide every pain I've been through. Not showing to others that I struggled a lot more than what they thought I had. Lying is my talent when someone is asking me if I am okay. I always tell them I'm fine and happy, but all lies shut the truth inside of me.

Many challenges arrived in my way towards my dreams. I was at the point of giving up and planning not continuing my studies. I struggled for financial support, but I am not blaming my family status. Despite all hardships, I am still grateful and blessed of what God gave to me. All I need to do is to be content with what I have to live this life happily and blissfully.

Though many tears may fall to test me from disappointments. By that I will become more bravier to handle it. As of now I want to make a new difference in my life. If I am that kind of lazy before, I will pursue harder and become more active to work hard and build my unlimited dreams.

No matter how tough the situation is, life goes on. Even if we fail again and again, our lives still goes on.
