I'd like to see it written in the stars


As the sun begins to rise and I feel more refreshed, something my Dad said yesterday, keeps pondering in my mind.

He had said something about finding one's need, about finding one's purpose in life which then, generated numerous questions in my head and made me think, deeply.

It's like this; Just close your eyes and your mouth, and what to you need?

As a student, the need is to ace as many subjects as possible, to live up to your parents expectations which in turn, will glorify God. As a father, the need is to be the head of the household, the one to hold the family together, be a role model to your children and provide tender loving care. As a mother, it is to honour your husband, provide food on the table, and be a peacekeeper around the house.

Well, that is how it is in my home, at least.

I'm in the midst of finding my purpose in life; my 'calling', so to speak. But somehow I don't have a clear sight of it all - blurry and not persistent. Passions of mine keep changing in time. I have a passion for singing, challenging my voice to reach my satisfaction. Photography; I love capturing moments in my life, meaningful or not. Writing; cause' I believe that life is too short to let it slip through my fingers, for one's mind may not be able to hold all the precious moments that we've been through.

Yes, these are the many few passions I hold deep in my heart. Passions which I hope my future career would be in - Music, Photography and Writing.

So, in order to find what God has planned for me, I believe I have to do my part, as well. I'll pray - I'll pray I find your light, that will guide me through this winding road in my life.
