...a dazzling place I never knew…
It’s been three months since I landed a new job. Everything’s happening so fast! And If I may say, everything’s completely changed! From my waking hour to my night time sleep plus all that’s happening in between. Imagine doing the same thing for five years and one snap you are brought back to zero. Surely it entailed big adjustments in my daily life.
I tell yah, it’s not all WOW with smiles. During my first couple of weeks, I always catch myself in frustration and sometimes I just have to let the tears come. I felt so naive. I remember walking along Ayala Ave saying, God I can’t take another day of this! Long walks and riding six vehicles a day, oh come on you got to be kidding me, right!? Then thunder roared and lightning flashed and came a loud voice saying, NO Karen I am very serious about this! But of course that didn’t happen -- just my creative thinking hahaha!
With every passing day, I’ve learned to cope up. I normally laugh those off now. If I didn’t go out of my comfort zone, I will never know what is like out there. I will be stuck where I’ve always been wondering about the “what ifs”.
Yes, I still miss the life I left but I am embracing what I have and I am glad where I am now.
