...what comes next

Looking at my niece one morning, playing outside under the bright sun, I envied her for she doesn't have to care that much about what's going on around us. And at that very moment, I hoped that I could remain as a child forever. But I can't turn back time. Instead I'll be facing the future with my head up high. But the real and big question is, WHAT COMES NEXT?

As a child, I really wanted to become a teacher. I don't know why but when someone asks me what do I want to be when I grow up I would immediately answered, "a teacher". But I guess, no one can really predict what the future holds. And now instead of being a teacher, I ended up being a NURSE. 

After graduating in college, I decided to look for a job that would train me to become an efficient and competetive member of a health team. I got lucky and had a chance to work and experience what it is to be truly a nurse. But as they say, life may sometimes be unfair and that not all of us will be given a blessing at the same time. At this moment, while I am writing this, and I have to admit, I am just simply an ordinary college graduate.

WHAT COMES NEXT? This question again kept on bugging me and I thought, what really comes next for me? 

"Right now, I can say, I really want to be a nurse. For four long years, I am trained to become one so deep in my heart I know I can be one. I was called to be in this profession, so I'll be ready to conquer the world with a trust to myself that I can be an amazing nurse someday. I also want to be an instrument of God's healing hands as I take care of God's people with my own bare hands. Wherever life may take me, I just only have one wish, that I'll someday be remembered not just a simple girl but a caring nurse that had been a part and in my own little way had touched their lives."

I know change is inevitable and that things can go differently even if we had planned it perfectly. The road is still long and that we may encounter a lot of turns as we take on our journey. But one thing is for sure and that no one can take that away from me. I AM A NURSE AND I WANT TO BECOME ONE! SOON I WISH.

...and that's what next for me! xoxo
