what are you passionate about?
Have you ever seriously asked yourself this question? And when you answered, did you think about what your answer really meant? If you could identify that thing you're passionate about, then are you doing something about it? If yes, then good but are you making people's live better because of it? If no, then why not if that's what you're really passionate about? If you don't have an answer to this question, then doesn't it feel so bad to have gone through life and still be unsure about what makes you alive?
What am I passionate about?
I have no easy answer to this question. I've actually had to stop and really think about my answer. But at this point, what I believe I'm most passionate about are new horizons. the future. Not just the future in general, but making changes to make the future better not just for myself. I hope to create changes to make things better for the Filipino people. But I am scared because I don't think that I have the capacity to make any great changes. I am scared because there's a part of me that wants so bad to be selfish and just think about improving myself and making myself more interesting. But then I go back home and see all the poverty and the disarray and I feel for the Filipino. I feel for the poor Juan who just wants to be a domestic helper so that his family could eat. I feel for the poor Juana who works so hard and yet realizes that all her hardearned money gets wasted by her ungrateful family. I feel for the poor Juan who wants so badly to do well in school but could never understand his lessons because the teacher doesn't have time to teach him. I feel for the Juans and Juanas and I can not see myself turning my back. I don't know what I'm going to do. At this point, these are all just words. But there is the future to look to - a future i hope to actively participate in.
