A Confession of A Lady Who's Hungry for Her Passion

I have a confession to make. And since I am posting this thing on this spot, maybe I am quite hoping that nobody from my office will read this. Hehe.

You see, if you are following my blogs, you'll notice that I'm fond of writing (whatever it is under the sun, and maybe we can include the moon). And I'm very much looking forward to make this craft a source of income. A passion shouldn't be confused with a hobby. You can make your passion a hobby, but you know it wont be enough. Your hunger for that passion will never be satisfied unless you fully pay attention on what you really desire. And that's me. always hungry to do what I really love to do.

So to make the long story short --- I'm planning to quit my job here in a broadcasting company, which I must also confess, made something out of me , a better version of me; and the first job that I have truly loved. But I know deep inside, I'm always haunted by my first true love -- WRITING.

I know sooner or later, I will bid goodbye to this place. And oh, it's not an easy thing to do. I love here, I love the people. I have friends that I can truly count on. And it hurts so bad to think that I will lose them sooner or later. That I will never get the chance to greet and see them everyday. But life's a journey with a purpose. And when I had already served my purpose in this company, eventually, I must go.

A year? A few months? A few weeks? I don't know how long or how soon, but I know I will be leaving for good. But geez, every time I remember how it feels good to have a 2-week Christmas Vacation with pay not to mention Holy Week and the perks I get from this company, I ask myself if it's worth the risk to let this job slip away my hands? But then God answered, 'You will eventually leave.'

You see, this desire here, it does not only come from me, I believe that God has placed this in my heart because I have a purpose to attain. And with God by my side, I don't have to worry, because everything is in His hand, and He knows pretty well what He is doing. That's why it's important to have a personal relationship with Him, because truly a life without God is like an unsharpened pencil -- it has no point.
