Death is inevitable. I've seen many of it. In the form of the elderly, children, and innocent infants. There were times when they aggressively fight for that one life, but that one life just ends. There were times when they simply give up and just sign DNR, but that one soul keeps on holding on. There are some who get hold of the opportunity to have anticipatory grieving. But for some, it comes to them instantly like a thief in the night. No matter how or when it comes, it doesn't depend on how aggressive or faint-hearted they are, because whatever choice they make, whatever interventions we do, it's all up to Him.
And today, on November 1st, I've seen another one.
I realized that I was not able to blog for a YEAR. Now looking back at those 12 months, here are some few updates..
After that last post about the famous ONDOY, I've been busy with trainings concerning my Profession. I did volunteer a bit for Red Cross to help the Ondoy victims. I've been a bum for 3 more months then I got accepted as a nurse trainee. I did work hard and after few months, I eventually became a staff nurse. Until now, I'm still working there.
Ever since I started working, I felt like I've been sluggish. I still manage to hang out with my family and friends but I spend most of my time sleeping and taking rest at home, which is not who I am. I've been close to temptations and married to stress. Life, as it is, became more complicated. You ask if I'm happy with the job? I can't give you the definite answer. But if you ask if I hate it? I'd say no.
Family life had been different. My dad and brother came home from abroad for good. It feels good that we are almost complete here at home, but I guess the many years of being apart affects the reationship. But we are, generally happy.
Love? I still have them, those guys who you can call 'suitors', but .. yes, BUTS. And I've had this 'something-that-maybe-doesn't-mean-anything' with someone. It ended just before it started. No regrets, somehow glad it happened.
Each day has a blessing. The day itself is. Those 12 months were. But looking back, I know and feel that something's lacking.
The past 12 months had been diverse. Life outside the academe, as I've said, is way more complicated. But that's just the way it is, we have to live with it. Be thankful for each day, for another year. Live life, love life.
This is the first time, in my 20 years of existence, that a flood like this happened in our area. Good thing that our street was not affected.
The effect of typhoon Ondoy is really devastating, we all know it. Photos and videos are disturbing, it's really extremely upsetting.
As of now, I am still worried because I still didn't receive a message from my best friend and close friends from Marikina and Malabon. My relatives from Greenpark, Cainta are okay and they stayed here in our home for a while. We also have a relative somewhere in Cainta and still no news from them.
:(
While today, I received my board rating from PRC. And I was happy about the result. But after the happiness, the painful truth about this calamity took me over.
