STOP STARING AT ME

"Sometimes people are stupid to look at their destiny and stay on their place. Yeah, it's good to wait for things to happen but I think it would still be great to step forward towards that dream rather than staying at the window STARING AT it."-aziel corporal-

After posing for some pictures, I browsed the photos and chose this as the best. I was so happy about the outcome that I even posted this on my twitter account. Yesterday, I decided to post it on my facebook account (ladyazielc). I was thinking of a special caption and ended up talking about staring at your destiny

Like this picture, I am a girl who keeps staring at my dreams on my window pane. I'm just merely looking or sometimes glancing on them but my heart is never really determined that I need to do something. I used to work as a call center agent, for 2 years and a half in the BPO industry, and enjoyed it. On my first year, my mother kept on urging me to go back to school. I told her that I'm still saving for my studies but the truth is I'm enjoying work that I don't want to go back to school anymore. On the contrary, my heart longed for school but work dragged me -- dreams forgotten. How I wanted a different future but I didn't do anything. A lot of excuses were made, simply because I did not want to get near them.

By fate, I was awakened from the habit of staring. Last 2010, a pastor shared about running after your dreams and it was not yet too late to do so. That moment was like a fast truck - a total impact. 


Yeah, that was me before. Stupid for staying in the window pane for along time. I did enjoy the view, but never reached it. Near yet so far. I have waited too much and thought about the right timing to fight for my dreams. I didn't know then that dreams will never step on you; instead you should be the one stepping towards them

Now, I am conscious that going through the journey is still the best. I have never felt much alive now that I'm doing something. 


It feels better...




...than sitting and watching my dreams from a distance.
