It's a new season, it's a new day

I'll never forget a great story I've heard once from a wise man. It was a story about a beautiful bird flying so swiftly in the sky until it gets tired. The bird goes to its nest to take a rest and relax because it is too tired and stressed out. The bird noticed that some of its feathers are falling down and because of the feathers, the nest makes the bird comfortable. Then the bird started plucking its feathers one by one and it made the bird more comfortable and then a lot more comfortable. Then the bird gets hungry, and when it started to spread its wings, it can no longer fly.

All right. Why did I say this story? Because I felt like that beautiful bird sitting pretty in its nest, comfortable and too much comfortable. I worked for nine months (only) and then felt too tired and too stressed out so I've resigned. I want comfort and there I did everything I could do to make my life more enjoyable and lived my happy go lucky days. I finished a lot of Koreanovelas, read pretty good books, attended great events like watching plays and concerts, travel until my feet are too tired to walk, etc. etc. Those I can say were my happy go lucky days! Yes, I love it! I love love love it!! But I was reminded by this story not to seek too much comfort. Yes, it is okay to seek for comfort but too much of it? Ahhhhh, that's gonna be bad my dear. Bad for my brains and definitely bad for my career.

It is our human nature to get tired and there are days that we wanna stop from work, just spend a week to a province or any place where we could have our solitude, just read inspiring books, etc. etc. Then after that, we don't feel tired anymore, we are no longer restful. We wanna be challenged, we wanna be stretched a bit and we wanna work again!

Breathe. Relax. Calm down. My happy go lucky days are now hitting its end. I'm back to reality. I'm back to work. I'm back to busy life. I'm back with my busy schedule. No more watching too much of Koreanovela, no more puyatan days, no more chatting for no agenda. Purely corporate again! Yes I'll be missing my happy go lucky days but I'd reather choose the new, uncertain and the challenging work because that's where real life is. That's where happiness is. That's where fulfillment is.

I don't wanna be like the beautiful bird, sits pretty relaxing on its comfortable nest and then one day realized that it can no longer fly and instead of going to longer distances, it lost its power to fly and soar high.

After all these things. I am recharged, full batt and ready to soar high to great places that God wants me to reach. I am so much excited. It's a little more challenging but Yes, I take the challenge coz I know that my God is with me. Sabi nga sa mga Koreanovelas na pinanood ko, fighting! fighting! (I wish you could hear their accent, hehehe)

Now, I welcome myself in this new season, this new day.
