It's all About Choice

      I've been thinking on what to write for today and remembered my reflections about CHOICE, which I've posted in my Facebook wall 2 months ago. I've attended one of the sessions of our spiritual rehabilitation in dorm and that was one of the topics being discussed. The pastor showed us few videos which we had to make a response and share it with the group. I wasn't given a chance to speak and express my ideas in that particular subject so I just wrote it as my shout-out and posted it. It was one of the pastor's message that had a great impact on me and ever since, I would always think and carefully decide before I make my choices.

My reflection goes like this..

     All our actions has its own consequences, we choose to do things out of our inner desire to have more of the best things in this world, but sometimes, by making those choices that we think are best for us, we don't realize that we are making a mistake and even losses our own LIFE for the sake of those things. We sometimes tend to be impulsive when we think of ways to get ahead of others. We even do things unintentionally without thinking where it might lead us and happened to realize it when its already too late. 

Here's a video clip of what we've discussed, THE BLACK HOLE..


      GREEDINESS is what makes us crave for more things but CONTENTMENT is what we need to enjoy life more. If we want to live fully in this world, it's our CHOICE! Every move we make,  there's always a CONSEQUENCE. I just hope and pray that we always choose to be in the right way! 

Happy midweek everyone..! :)

Nurses, pack your bags and leave Philippines!

Much worse, will even be the one to degrade, corrupt and exploit the noble profession which we all have patiently achieved through hard work, sweat, blood and tears!  If you are thinking and relying on the Philippine government to uplift our profession, well think again! Sadly, our own country who should have been looking after our welfare, raising our dignity as nurses, is also the one who can't even appreciate us. So why would you want to stay in a country who can't even give you the salary and benefits which you truly deserved. If you go to different countries, like here in UAE, Filipino nurses are being praised for being the ones who give the outmost, highest quality of care to patients and are the most preferred and demanded by almost all healthcare institutions. Employment conditions may vary from different institutions but salary/be...

Feeling of Lonelines

Image
There are times that even if everything in life seems doing great, you will still feel like your alone. That no one is there for you, that no matter how hard you try to convince yourself that you're okay, that you don't need anybody else cause you got yourself covered, you will still feel it deep inside, the pain and longing for someone and something you can't experience the same and have again. As Tom Wolfe puts it,  "the whole conviction of my life now rests upon the belief that loneliness, far from being a rare and curious phenomenon, peculiar to myself and to a few other solitary men, is the central and inevitable fact of human existence."  I recently got a two days off and decided to go to the mall to de-stress. My duty was just keep on getting toxic more and more and I needed to go out to declutter my mind. I chose to see a recently released movie, Everything everything, which is based from a novel from the same producer of "Me Before You". Maybe t...

It’s Been a Year

People come and go as what they always do. That's life, one of the awful parts of it. Though how much we want them to stay, they're not ours to keep and that they have to go their own way apart from ours. And for me, it's the saddest part of meeting people. Especially when we become so familiar of their presence in our lives, when we become so attached to them, when we have poured out all our hearts to them, that eventually they've already become part of us, occupying the big portion of our hearts . We've encountered them for a while but when they go, their presence leave a big empty hole in us that takes time to heal, and leave a scar forever.. It was   in the beginning of September, last year (2016) when I met a man. It's not everyday that I come across with a scenario like that. I was stressing with my job, and the only thing that mattered to me was earning and providing for my family, and saving for my future travel plans. He was introduced to me and despite...
