My strife, my calling.

Ever heard that saying, "I am going to pay my 'haters' bills today? Well I try to live by that saying. There are a lot of haters that will prevent you from becoming what your true calling is. They may tell you that you are not good enough, or maybe that you are not smart enough. Reality is that we all have talents. Sometimes we have to fall flat to find them, but trust me, they are there. I have found in my life that I have worked tons of dead end jobs and was not sure what I was meant to do with my life. I have questioned my purpose a million times. I have come to learn that questioning gives arise to future ideas and that can then arise to future moves. So with today passing as I sit at the job that I constantly question, I will just think positive thoughts and pay my haters bill today.

Hazel, should you read this, you are strong and so forth with what you strive to be, a lawyer. Test and test until your hand falls off. Lisa, pray hard to find what you want to do once you have both of your girls settled, you are still young and have tons of time to take out with them and take the time to think things through. Aries, do not worry about cruises and times away, we will love you even more once you return. Do not worry that you have to deal with low morale and inequality standards, as you are there to pass time. Once you retire you can do anything your heart desires. And for myself, I am going to keep pushing. I am going to apply for Grad school and I will succeed. I will no longer be in the IT industry where I feel overwhelmed and under appreciated. Today marks a change for all of us.

Love,
C

Thanks Christle for such encouraging words. There are times when I just want to give up but I keep thinking of my family and friends, the support they gave me. And with a new friend like you cheering me on, I keep on going. Although the circumstances may not be perfect sometimes, I still work hard. Thank you so much. :)

Hazel, I know how you feel. When I feel like my job/purpose sucks, Christle is always there to appreciate me and encourage me to press on. Family is the only reason to move on. I could care less where I work now as long as I have those I love near by.

Christle, mahalkita forever...

Awe thanks Hazel and Mahal,
You are both very special people in my life. I thank God for all of the angels that are put in my path and you both are most definitely in my path for a reason. Hazel, it will be ok, we are all here for you and your goals, vent to us... You working hard is going to take care of you for the rest of your life. Keep it up! And Aries, you are all about your family, I thank God that we are together and you told me to stay. It went from talking, to meeting, to date, to trip to see you, to stay! Wow so fast so perfect.

Thanks Christle for haveing faith in me and all of your family. All though we have never spoke or met I know you are a great person. Soon we will see eachother and I know we will have fun together. You probably will laugh at me and Aries and are inside jokes from when we were younger. Im sorry that you guys will not be able to move here sooner than you thought, but no worries maybe we can come out there to see you. I cant wait to meet you guys, and my nephew, oh my gosh Graeson and ALexia will have so much fun already. Alexia has been talking about him. As for my life quest I dont know, but right now all i know is that I want to raise my kids with love, joy, and a wonderful childhood like i had, to become great people that i know they will be, thanks Christle....
Love, Lisa mahal kita Aries , Christle, and Graeson
