Constant Change...

I have been bugged by my husband a couple of times to make a blog entry. You see, we both resigned to our work in the Philippines to seek better opportunities in Singapore. (Raises my hand) -- And yes.. more of a risk taker, I am.. I honestly urged my husband to consider working abroad for our family/future. Fortunately, after a long and careful consideration, he finally gave it a shot. I know it was harder on him since he is not that comfortable with changes on things that are crucial (work for that matter). He even hoped I would change my mind after some time but nope, I didn't.

The last few weeks in Manila went by so fast, arranged the things we will be leaving behind (house, payables, car, our Jessie the Jumping Dog... everything), meet ups with friends and catching up with the family. We were both sentimental before leaving but we tried so hard to be strong for the people we love. Only Mon saw me crying, as I don't want them to see that I am. I know we will be coming back but it really sucks thinking that you won't be so near your loved ones. Haaayyy.... Good thing there's ym, email and cellphone. We get to connect with them as often as we can. Another good thing is that we have very good friends over here to make us feel at home.

Now that I am thinking of it, it's not so bad to get out of one's comfort zone for there's a far better things ahead. There will be various changes that will happen to our lives and it's up to us how we deal with it. One great thing I learned on this journey that we took, is to be optimistic all the way. Resenting the change will just keep you from improving. Worse, it will make you more apprehensive and fearful. So, let's just MOVE FORWARD. ;)
