Better days to come

Now I got a nice title to start and have you ever wondered that this seemed to be irrelevant? Indeed it is December and few days from now we'll be feasting on the date that we have been waiting for, Christmas! It was said to be every BER months wherein people would feel so christmasy: people are becoming nice, generous, thoughtful, and other beautiful and unexpected events that would make us anticipate the holidays season even more. It was indeed promising that we have witnessed the historic political triumph of the first African-American President of US, but just few days earlier than his confirmation of the election results, we already have experienced a prologue of mishaps such as the global economic crisis that aches almost all countries in the globe, the political drama local and abroad, and many more in which one or the other affects our current situation. Are we really getting near to Armageddon?

It has been 2 months now since I left my job for the purpose of dealing more with my passion and aiming for career development. It was indeed hard but I came to think that I need to be fair with my company because I no longer feel the excitement of reporting to the office, thus make me become unproductive (definitely not me). So I decided to leave and as days pass by, as I needed more time for soul-searching, series of events as stated earlier puts me into such a depressing mood. Though I even have my family's support but it seemed that fate and dreams are tougher to merge and be realized. It was really depressing that sometimes I would just wish to have a magical genie and asks for big fortunes. I also even think that the world is unfair because of the news and as how I observe those corrupt government officials, insane celebrities, and just any other apathetic homosapiens getting an extravaganza in their lives! Why does it seemed to be very hard to be successful for most of us who even seemed to deserve more than them? Why can't we be all lucky? Currently, I feel bad because I'm like a bum and I never intended to be for a long time. Just after knowing my plans, I'm back on track scouting for my dream job and this time I am even more enthusiastic. My country needs more working and inspiring men.

Yes this is perhaps one of ways to express myself and release further my tension. I know there are more people who might even be more in trouble, as empty-pocketed like me. I may not need to go to Quiapo just to pray for a miracle, but I believe perhaps God is even reading this blog right now. One thing I have learned during my seminary formation (yup read my profile), nothing would go wrong as long as you are with Him. I am praying that amidst the scary statements of the economists, we can still see hope afterall we have probably know this by now that we just have to open our eyes wider. So don't be depressed and smile, opportunities will always be there but we just have to work harder this time. Soon all things will be running smoothly, don't ever lose hope. "Better days to come, better days to come" recite this as we watch news and let this words strengthen our efforts in order to achieve our goals.
