Faraway

Hello there! yes ang tagal ko di nakapagsulat ng entry dito sa blog ko na wala naman talagang masyadong sense ang content pero right now i really wanna pursue my dream of writing some articles worth reading for...naks, english yun ha!

Right now it's almost end of the year and a lot of things happened. OO marami, grumadweyt po ako ng kolehiyo and naigapang ko ang aking pag aaral ng may sugat sa tuhod pero dumating naman ako sa finish line hehehehe. 3 weeks after the graduation I decided to leave my nest and searched for a greener pasture...naks tunog imba ulit ako hehe. napadpad ako dito sa Quezon City, a place that's good enough for a person who belongs to the working class.Nag apply ako sa isang callcenter company at sa habag ng Dios, na hire naman ako...yahoo! naging tech suppport ako dun...callcenter agent din pero ibang breed...nanghuhula lang ako pero parang ganun na rin un hahaha...

Last week marked my 5th month sa company ko and all is running smoothly. Maganda ang takbo ng career ko ng di ko inaasahan...as usual ganun naman talaga nangyayari lagi sa akin. Ang nature ng trabaho ko eh ung isa sa pinaka ayaw ng karamihan...ung duguan ng ilong sa pakikipag usap sa mga customer na di mu maintindihan at laging sinisita ng accent mo at panay tanong kung taga-india ka.Masaya, nakakabanas,nakaka-stress,nakaka-depress,nakakatakot,nakakatamad, halo-halo.Dahil di ko maipaliwanag sabihin nlng natin na ang nararamadaman ko pag badtrip ako eh maikukumpara sa balut na binasag at inapakan.Nakakasuka ang hitsura pero masarap ang lasa...ah basta magulo hahaha.

Nabansagan na din akong isang 'colboy'.OO yun ang jargon nila sa mga tulad namin...gising sa gabi para maghanapbuhay...puyat, pero maganda naman ang kita kumpara sa isang normal na trabahong pag umaga.Ayaw ko pa naman dati sa ganitong trabaho pero na realize ko wala naman pala masama lalo na at marangal ang trabaho mo.

Madaming nakakatawang bagay na nangyari sakin nung first few weeks ko sa work pero until here nalang muna me mag write ha? Kinda puyat pa kasi eh...Im sounding like a conio na tuloy hehe next post ko mas exciting na at nakakatawapa ang ihahain ko sa inyo...promise!

Who's Better???

People went silent. I can feel her feeling.Contentment and faith.

I am not a very good Christian. I don't go to church on Sundays. I don't even know how to pray the novena but one thing that makes me feel worthy as a Christian, I never stopped thanking and praising God even at my smallest victory and grace he had blessed me.

Last week I decided to go home and celebrate St. Vincent's feast with my family. I was riding a jeep which is a famous commuting vehicle in my place. Many passengers are there too including two old women, between the ages of 50 to 60. They were in front of me busy doing there little chats about anything under the sun. They would talk about the house they have, the lot their house was built...the place they were born into...the country's economy....everything that passes by their minds.

I just don't mind what they are talking until a young lad went aboard. they greeted the guy and the young man did the same. They went on with their talks until they bounced on the more controversial thing...religion.

The other woman which I will be naming as Melly, said " I am not a very good Christian, I don't go to church every Sunday, but I can tell by myself that I am a good person, and being good is just what it takes to go to heaven. Other religions like I%^&&C, claims they have the way to heaven, but I say, you're the only one who can save yourself. The lines really struck me. It's like, is she talking for me? The other woman nodded in agree.

They guy beside, who just went aboard grinned. As if criticizing what's she just said. A grin of disbelief. The woman noticed this expression and she came to ask...Are you one of them? The guys answered her, "Yes"

The woman said, I don't mean to disgrace your church's name. I am just telling everyone who can hear me my thoughts. It's up to you if you believe it or not. I have nothing against your church.

The guy answered her and stating the verse where their church's name was LITERALLY stated. He explained that they were the chosen one because the Bible announced their church's name. Then all the passengers laugh. I also laughed not for discrimination, but for the argue itself. It's pretty interesting.

The old woman told him, " Young man, I am and old woman. I went through difficult times of life but here I am. My faith made me stand here firmly believing that God is with me always. I don't spread the good news because I think there are people intended to do that. My only duty is to keep myself good at all times. Yes I am a sinner, but I know how to say sorry, to forgive others and my self. I have faith in God which I acquired by not going to church. I learned to have faith all by myself".

People went silent. I can feel her feeling.Contentment and faith.

I smiled at her and said. "I have learned so much". She laughed. I smiled.

Let's try to think of it, Who's better? Someone who went church and praise God which is just a part of playing good in everyone's eyes or someone who seldom goes to the temple of God but everyday keeps Jesus in his heart?
