earlier, when i was too excited to attend to my first class, i met 2 of my classmates who were non social work graduates. we just took similar paths when pursuing our post graduate courses. the younger one was rej, who graduated in uplb with a course in sociology, while the second one was jen, who also graduated in uplb, and is working in HSBC for 7 years now. after meeting them, and after chatting with them, i was relieved and inspired again to go back to HSBC at the same time pursue my dreams to become a social worker. in fact, i am almost giving up the idea of becoming a social worker. i am thinking of organizing a set of volunteers in a call center who's passion to serve are trapped in their intentions to still be able to help their families when it comes to financial matters. i know there's a lot of young people, with their burning ideals to serve the country, just decided to stay in a call center because of financial convenience and what they might just need is an opportunity for them to somehow try the world of public social service through volunteerism.
and i guess it is better, because you do it for free, and for the willingness to help and share :-)
now i am inspired again.
As what the prayer book that Kat gave me about paths and purpose would say, "Know the difference between paths and purpose. Even if your chosen path fails, never give up on your sacred purpose..."
For now, i'll be keeping that inspiration in my heart.
I love you Lord for continuing to make your presence felt here in my heart.
Amen.
