life's detour
Enjoy what life is giving you at the moment...
There isn't really no guarantee that our plans (no matter how hard we work to achieve it) will eventually materialize. There even no guarantee what we are gonna do in the next days and where life will lead us. We can only hope for the next step or the next plan fate will direct us...not that I believe that it's all about fate, we still need to do our part. But the thing is...life sometimes gives us an alternative and at times it comes in a surprise.
Eversince I want to be a marketing somebody (in the future). I started learning the basic of marketing in the food industry and I enjoyed it alot. I enjoyed working with the people in the company specifically the people in the department where I was a part for more than 1 year and a half (I even enjoyed the menial things I had to do). In the course of my stay in the company, I developed a bigger fascination with the field and with it comes a bigger hope that I can make it big eventually.
But then again, an opportunity (I would like to call it a such) for me to work abroad suddenly came. Actually, I was kinda hoping for it to come but not that sudden. I had to grab it for some practical reasons...the desicion-making part wasn't really that hard. I know that this is a risk but I told myself to take a calculated risk, anyway it won't hurt me much if I try. This is entirely different to me but I also felt the need to try it. I can always go back if it won't work the way I wanted it to be.
So for now, I'll be leaving my dream of becoming a marketing guru for a while (I hope to go back going after that dream after some time). I guess I just have to face whatever life is giving me at this point and wish that it'll turn to be ok if not really great.
To the Lowlas and to my other friends...I badly need your prayers for me to survive there, for me to overcome sadness, homesick and the fact that I won't be seing you guys for the next 10 months. I don't want you all to be sad because I am leaving...I want you to feel otherwise...our friendship is so strong that no amount of distance can ruin or destroy it...remember that!
Stay happy and never give up on your dreams friend...love you all :)
