I know what I want to do for now.
I want to move out of Makati, go to some province (not a far-flung province, just outside Zambales and Metro Manila), and try to live there, not for a vacation, but live there.
I want to teach. I want to teach in that province.
I want to explore other work, career or profession. In that province, I also want to try other jobs, as a tour guide maybe?
But how? How about my work right now? I’ve been on it for just a few months.
How about grad school? I’ll take the qualifying exams next weekend. And in most cases, I need my master’s degree to be able to teach in college.
Now, what? What do I do now?
When I was at the so-called crossroads of my life, I did what I thought I couldn't do. I left the things that made life easy and head on to what I really wanted.
ReplyDeleteThings could have been worse. But they didn't.
If you really need to, go on. Life is short, as they say. :)
Thank you, Retro Manila. I still don't know what to do. Or how to do what I think I want to do. (sigh)
ReplyDeleteBut thanks for your words of wisdom! :) They made me think, and resolve to gather the guts I need to leave my comfort zone.
