Pia: so what’s your dream in life?
Me: I just want a simple family. Hindi sobrang yaman, hindi rin mahirap, like you know sobrang simple lang, hindi lalaki ung mga anak ko na materialistic. Basta, I just want a simple and happy family.
So today I’ve realized...
Failures wouldnt hinder me in achieving a simple family.
Line of 8 wouldnt hinder me in achieving a simple family.
Hindi porket may mga taong mas magagaling sakin, it would hinder me.
Sa totoo lang, hindi ko naman gustong maging famous na architect, I just want to earn right, mapag aral ung mga anak ko sa magagandang schools, maibigay lahat ng pangangailangan nila, and have a husband na sobrang responsible and all. I cried when I realized all of this, because for the past months, I have been depressed about my plates (yes depressed in a sense na halos gusto ko ng mawala na kang sa mundo). But then Ive realized, all of my struggles vs my simple dream, hindi pala dapat ako mastress sa mga maliliit na bagay.
Sobrang thankful talaga ako na tinanong yun sakin ni Pia because it made me think deeper. Walang masama maging ordinary, walang masamang bumagsak sa prelims, walang masama kung hindi ka satisfied sa plates mo right now, walang masama kung andaming magagaling kaysa sayo. What matters most is, YOU and Your long term goals in life. So if you want a simple family in the future, then savor your life and learn so much from it para mas maging better person ka, and a better parent to your children.
So to me, I admire you for having a simple dreams, and I love you. You can do it, no matter what happens!
