Journey of Tomorrow 101


Hey, How you doing?

Are you struggling right now? Do you feel like you’re being torn apart from within? The crazy idea that this would be my last day? Or trying to block all the inside voices just to have peace… Then please hear me out.

Let me tell you that all of which your experiencing are just as painful as I had, could be better or worse but whatever it may be you’re in the right path. I know I’m probably telling this just to keep the positivity alive but I’m being 100% honest.

I haven’t known anything about you but if we do meet please I’ll be interested to know you, but also let me introduce myself. I’m just the guy who’ll always be that someone to somebody. Someone who bullied her, or who broke this and that, or some guy who spilled over something to someone and ruined the party for everyone or the classic me… “I’m sorry, I’m late again”.

I have experienced over and over that I have an issue being late whether it’s naturally my habit or just coincidentally meant to be late. I thought my life sucks so bad until one day, I lost my job… been trying to find a new one ever since. On top of that I haven’t finish my advanced studies for a certain certificate, so I cannot definitely take that test. And don’t get me started on the financial & relationship issues…

Yet all this seems a really bad luck! I hated when I had to change my routine due to being jobless. Although I discovered new hobbies. I hated how I have a lot of spare time that I don’t even know how to use it all. But I did returned to exercising, eating much healthier and having the best sleeps. I just hated how I love where I am, that I might get too comfortable to leave the safe space I created. But I have to think practical at these trying moments.

I now know how addicting it is to be in a vacation and just thinking of having fun for a while. But there are so many things I wanted, that I think I have to go back to reality to move forward again. Even if it’s just a single step.

First thing I did was to change my CV so that I can find a better job. Looking down at the previous experiences I had, I was utterly surprised how much I’ve actually accomplished. Moving from 4 different job for 5 years, actually explains that I was fast forwarding. Because before my 5th year of working ended, I was a manager for those 2 years.

See there was still good things even as if you thought everything was your fault for being late… Well in fact it was all a great perfect timing. Fate has it that you’ll never see it coming until you look back and realized how much you’ve accomplished. But I do urge you to make the best out of any situation(s). Whenever there’s that moment when you feel like failing or falling into a dimensions you thought you shouldn’t be to begin with.

Well take a deep breath there’s tomorrow and the sun will shine again. No matter what we do we get another chance every day don’t ever forget that. Don’t waste it, let me tell you that resting is not wasting. It’s a matter of healing mentally and spiritually the way I see it. No one can even physically work 24/7 straight believe me I tried playing games on a computer I lasted for 2 ½ days then slept like a panda whose had undergone hibernation.

Please don’t lose hope, if you do then remember this letter I wrote. I know we’ll all get through this, despite the discouraging moment of pandemic. Given all the facts everyone is suffering, I’d still encourage you to look beyond this. I’d be happy if against all odd you still made a leap of faith. Because you know I did, I lost all hope externally but I was stronger on the inside that none knew.

That’s the strength I want to share with you. Once you build your own character from within no one can take that from you, not even you family, friends, or even Facebook and Instagram! Yeah I said it Mark Zuckerberg, you may be rich and all but one day we too can be there and I’m not just gonna dream about it anymore! See how I simply turned that into something positive it’s that simple. If you move towards an attitude of regret and hatred that’s what you’ll get. But if your mindset tells you differently and to wake up every day as an outcome of celebration then do so!

With your power from yourself you’ll always find a different way to turn things around. But a piece of advice do try and select people that you know you can trust because sometime in the future they’ll always be there for you.

I have told you that losing was ok, as long as you know how you’re able to learn from this, and get back on your feet. So let me also share that I have actually made it into my final interview with some job I really did like. Oh the job was perfect for my studies and get this, great people and benefits as far as the interviews went. But I think I’ll cut you off first from here because I’m still waiting for the results. But regardless of the outcome I’ll see you on the other side. The side where whatever happens just think its all part of HIS plan.

Hope this reminder helps you and please do stay safe!

From your friendly colored friend,

BLUE
