Love lots, Ate Dan! 🥰
My dilemma is different. I believe that there's more opportunity out there, away from home but I couldn't leave my parents who are both senior citizens. Pa is 78yr old and Ma's turning 69 this month. I feel that there's so little time before they're gone for good. And I have to make the most while they're still here. Teary-eyed while writing this because I couldn't imagine a life without them. 🥺
Sometimes, I overthink if this decision to not move out of Cebu will be my life's greatest regret in the future. And it's a different kind of sacrifice, when you have dreams and you know you can be bigger but you decide to be where you are. But every time I go home and see how my presence fills Ma with joy as if she just won a million. It's priceless.
My goal is to be happy and at peace regardless of what the world says. I can proudly say I'm right where I should be. Let's continue spreading this vibe that it's okay to be who we want to be even if the world around us tells us otherwise. ❤️
When are you coming to Cebu? I'm not in Facebook na hehe 😘🥰
@patsitivity!!!!! Awwweee, thank you for always cheering me on! ❤️
Thanks for sharing this part of you here, Pat. I didn't know about this part of you and I feel privileged that you get to share this with us here. You know what, I've been all around for 13 years. Most travels locally and abroad, I was on my own. While I would say those experiences were life-changing to me, nothing compares to the joy I feel whenever I get to share those experiences with loved ones. For me, the most difficult part was going home. 😞 I stay far away for months or years then everytime I went home, I could see my brother and sister growing up. When I left, my brother was still in Grade 2 then suddenly he's now in High School, all grown up. I wasn't even there in their birthdays or graduations. I would notice my parents' getting older and older everytime I go homeー their hair turning gray. For me, that's the most painful part; knowing how much time has passed and how many precious moments you were not able to experience with them. Maong karun, bumabawi kaayo ko nila sa 13 years nga wala gyud mi naka spend time together, atleast naa pa sila tanan diri naa pakoy chance mubawi. ❤️
I affirm your decision, Pat! You are doing very well and I am very proud of you! ❤️
