I did not REGRET

“Experience is the best teacher”, an adage that reminds me that no man is ever created perfect by the supernatural. Yes! I did a lot of mistakes in the past but I did not regret to experience its consequences. For without those challenges, I won’t be able to become a stronger and tougher person.

If only I have the time machine with me, I would like to go back to my Grade II in Elementary. During that time, I started to acquire womanly characteristics from my girl friends around me. There, I started begun to carry out some of their ways of talking and reacting to different situations. I then started to get attracted with the same sex which I personally don’t know why. During that time, I had two choices whether to continue being a gay or to refrain from being such. But I chose to be happy I chose to be me and I chose the thing that will make me feel free. Although I am happy with my status right now, sometimes the regret on the decision I made keeps coming in my mind. Because of that decision, I had been to heartaches and the sad reality is I had experienced the ache of loving someone who doesn’t care for me. I t may sound funny but it’s true. But I know that the greatest love of all is just around me. Thanks to all my family and friends for their unending love and support.

“No two individuals are alike”. So, my decisions are certainly not the same with yours. I’m rare. And, in all rarity there is great value. Because of my great rare value, I do not have to imitate others. This is me, the real me.

An opinion on EARLY MARRIAGE

Everything has its perfect timing, a cliché maxim that reminds someone that he should not be on a rush on the things he does. Nowadays, many juvenile lads and lasses are getting married. So, what are my views on early marriage?

As part of the teenage society, I continuously and deliberately observe drastic changes in the society. One of these noticeable changes is the rising number of teenagers getting married. And this happens because of numerous reasons like family related problems, peer pressure, scholastic problems and a lot more. Teenage years should be spent for friends, fashion, fun and worldliness but what happens now? Teenagers are getting married in a young age. What happens to these teenagers? Of course, they will not be able to spend the entire duration of the teen years for school, family and friends but their attention will be focused on their married life. As proven by a number of studies, early marriages mostly result to divorce and annulment cases which result to a broken family. As a youth, I should say that this is not yet the right time for us to get married because this time is intended for us to go to school and gear ourselves for the betterment of our future. And thus, we should first weigh the pros and cons of whatever decision that we intend to make.

Time is Gold. So let us not waste the opportunities around us. Day by day, let us seize every opportunity that will come into our way. Let us live life with hope and faith that one day, we will be able to see a brighter future. And before we enter the kingdom of love and get married, we should first reach the pinnacles of our fields.

How do I see myself a couple of years from now

Each day unfurls surprises which are naturally unprecedented. A very catching line that reminds someone that life will forever remain as an enigma. Anyone in this world has his plans for the betterment of one’s future. So, how do I see myself a couple of years from now?

A number of years from now, I will be marching at the Atrium of Limketkai Mall and will receive the diploma for my degree and will be awarded with honors by Dr. Chito B. Salazar and the rest of the College Deans of COC- Phinma. At that fleeting yet momentous moment, I will see my whole family and friends in full force clapping their hands as I stride on the aisle. I will then congratulate my c- scholars for making it to the finish line. After graduation, I will have a tour to the different scenic panoramas of the Philippines namely: Boracay, Puerto Princesa’s Underground River and of course I should experience the thrill and excitement the thrill and excitement of the Zip Line ate my Hometown- Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon. Also, I will not miss the chance to roam around the flabbergasting Manila Ocean Park and the enormous SM Mall of Asia. After the time for friendship, fun and worldliness, I will prepare for my life-long job. I am really looking forward to teach in the tertiary level and become an effective and efficient instructor. Also, I will strive hard in order for me to become a part of the prominent ABS- CBN Company.

The choices you make today will determine your tomorrow. That’s why, as early as now, I am weighing the pros and cons of my decisions because I know that my future depends not on anybody but on me.
