📢 HEAR ME OUT!
Isa sa mga 'filipino toxic traits' na kahit ngayon ay patuloy na isinasabuhay ng iba, ay ang gawing basehan ang “pag-unlad” “pag-angat" at "pag-asenso" ng iba sa pansariling kaunlaran. Nakakadismaya, dahil ang pinaka dahilan kung bakit ganito tayo mag-isip ay walang iba kundi dahil rin saating mga mahal sa buhay. Why?
I believe that the root cause of this problem does not related to any socio-economic crisis nor societal imbalances but rather because of how our parents and even closest relatives taught us in perceiving reality, practical? Yes, It is. However, the pressure they are putting into is way more heavy than striving harder to and confronting the obstacles of life, this implies that sometimes, our loved ones are the only people that hinders our success. Tama?
Hindi ibig sabihin na kaya naging successful yung anak ni Marites kasi mas masipag at nagsumikap sya kaysa sayo, hindi rin naman ibig sabihin na talunan ka dahil mas unang naging Engineer, Teacher, Doctor at Architect yung anak ni Telma. I don't know who needs to hear this sentiment but sometimes, striving harder will never be enough without emotional and mental support, kase alam naman natin sa sarili natin na kaya nating lumago at mag grow, pero pag may mga taong nagpapabigat sayo at minamadali kang umasenso, mas lalo tayong tinatamad! Ayaw nating inuutusan sa mga bagay na ginagawa na natin at the very place, right?
Let's stop the stigma of puting someone in a corner of boxing ring, life doesn't end in a four corner of room alone, sometimes our desires are not aligned with the path we are currently taking, so we have to step back and contemplate the things we ought to do. Not because you lose doesn't mean you're a loser, sometimes losing battles is tantamount of winning your own pace.
Cheer Up!
