A Birthday Refection...

Its exactly 6 days before my 25th birthday. I feel kinda weird because I'm quarter of a century! When I was still in my teens, I was always wondering what I will be when I reached 25. I always thought that I will be more mature, you know, I won't be as gigglish and as childish as I used to be. :)

I also wanted to get married by 25, and have kids by 26 or 27 (the same age my mom was when she had me). However, things don't usually go the way you think that it would happen.

At 25, I have two kids, and I am still not married. I will probably be getting married by next year :D I am still as gigglish and as childish as before, but I know that in my own, I have matured more than I can imagine. At 22, I had my first baby. At 24, I gave birth to Nicko. I have my own house now, (though we're just renting). I can pay my utility bills, can buy things for my kids without asking anyone for help. I am an employer now, because i have a yaya who takes care of my babies when I am at work. :D Though I still don't have my own car... I'm happy where I am now. I may not be the doctor that I have always imagined I will be, but I know given the right oppurtunity, I can still be the doctor that I have always dreamed of.

At 25, I have found the love of my life. I am settled and happy and contented. :D Sam will only be the man for me. :D I love him so much... and for the last 5 years, I have been falling in love more and more each day. :D

My life is not perfect. It's not smooth sailing. There were a lot of bumps and thumps, but luckily, with the help of God and the support of my loved ones, I have surpassed them with great dignity and confidence. I have learned to stand up for the decisions that I made even if it was because of stupidity. I have learned to cry and realize that crying is not a sign of weakness, but of strenght and selflessness. Also, it made me realize that crying is a a trademark of being human. It makes me intouch with my inner self. That's something that I have learned to master.

The experiences that I had were draining but fruitful. I have learned to realize that you really can't have it all. You really can't please people. You can't always have what you have. It made me realize that there really is a God, and that He's just there. It made me realize that life runs in circles. One minute your down, the next thing you know you're on top then down again.

I may sound weird, i know that. But hey! I have been crazy the past 25 years of my life. :D
