that big leap

how can you actually know what's on the other side, when you don't pick up the courage to stand up and crossover to that side? surely there will be fear (lots of it), doubts, anxiety, but you must always think of what it might actually be when it's positively the other way around.

making big decisions is awful. why? because everything doesn't really depend on what you decide. it's a mixture of you, and the whole universe around you. what you can really bring with you is not the talents or the gifts or the monies, but the courage to face adversities in your midst. because you'll never really know unless you get there and actually live the being, the time, the essence. maybe you've exhausted all the pro's and con's... maybe you've verified the authenticity of it... maybe you talked to some people to confirm it... in the end, it's still up to you to make the decision and stay firm. you should never give up, you should never expect it to be perfect, for in that comes disappointments.

live life as it comes your way. hope for the best, expect for the worst. and you don't really have to worry, because you're never alone. He will always be with you, you just got to have faith that He will not want bad things for you. hurt happens for a reason, it strengthens your dignity and makes you appreciate life better. remember your friends who are always there for you, who will stand beside you through it all. they may not always say the right words to comfort you... you may not always hear what you want to hear from them... but in the end, they've always loved you.

i'm picking up my courage to take the big leap. i don't know anything about the other side, but i'm gonna find out. and if it's not as good as i thought it would be, i can always go back to my dear family who loves me and will never abandon me. i can always start again... that's the challenge of living. thank you dadi rock for being so supportive... thank you for encouraging me to become the best that i can be. love ya dadi nino! :)

have faith in yourself and in God! He knows what's best for you and He will never ever put you in a situation where you wouldn't be able to grow. ;)

I must say though, the "outside world" might shock you and will make you realize that the "inside" is a haven especially for moms... (assume na ako na yun yung big leap hihihi)

yeah, that's certainly true. it really scares me to step up and take bigger responsibility, by myself, in a whole new different place, without my family in it :( it's so sad that i have to leave them behind especially my kids waaaaaahhh! di pa nga alam sabihin ni bunso ung mami, iiwan ko na sya! huhuhu!

tenchu po for the encouragement :)
