Life Goals

"There isn't anything materialistic nor money or gold that can buy us eternal happiness or heaven", said my mother always. I know that probably money helps us move forward when it comes to our needs and peace of mind when it comes to food and bills. But at the end of the day I've met so many people that not even having millions of dollars, own companies, have houses and cars aren't happy. They still feel incomplete. The best quality that a human being can and should have is a humble heart and soul, that is the only way people will remember us once we're gone.

Yes I want to be financially successful but I also want to help society with what ever and everything I'm able to. Sometimes we don't see how just $1 can make a difference in others life, but it does. I may not have a complete sketch of what my future may look like, but I know that I want my family to be taken care of. If I have, I want them all to have as well. My goals is to 1. Be happy and 2. Stay humble. I always ask God to give me strength to never become a bad selfish person even when I get hurt or betrayed. I just don't want to be like the people who hurt me. I strongly believe that giving out, to me is more satisfying than receiving. Therefore that's my goal.

I don't want to be specific in what I want to give to people because once again I don't know what my future is holding on for me, it can be less or more than what I expect. But I do know that I want to help out, whether financially or even love and compassion wise. Love and compassion and even a little time that you share with others make huge difference in people's life. I've always said it "Give me love, honesty, loyalty, and time, and I will appreciate it for the rest of my life, because these are things that I value the most, they stay in our memories for a life time. I've seen many cases in kids, including with my own mother, that she'd buy me expensive clothes and presents just to repair that either she was hospitalize or just simply sick. And even though her health wasn't necessarily her fault I would rather have had her love, time and her just being a mother instead of buying me  stuff. My goal is to be a better person, a better sister, daughter, friend, future wife and mother, and a better me point blank. Be there when my people need an ear to hear them out. That's my goal, because it'll hurt me to hear that a close friend of mine killed him or her self because didn't have anyone to to cope with.

Dedicated To My Grandmother. 

Love and compassion
is what my elders taught me.

Now is that time
that I make them proud
of what they showed me.

so that they can know
and say it was all worth it.

My grandmother didn't have a lot
but the little that she had
she shared with all,

Everyone still remembers her
as a big hearten caring woman.

She always said
"where one eats 5 eat"

Growing up I didn't get it,
but now I see that she was right.

Being wise
is a gift, that much don't have.

There are lessons and values
that no school or education
will teach.

That's why I now seat
and value all the advice
that I once heard as a child.

Values and having a humble heart
is a difficult thing to find.

Because of the days we live
it has become harder and harder to find

But that's why
I have compromised

To be old at heart
And keep the memories
forever alive.

My job

Gratitude I feel about my current job is that I can see how excited kids get when they walk in and when they walk out. I work in a frozen yogurt place called "Pinkberry". I am currently a shift lead which is not a bad position but a lot of work. We are in charge of the money daily and also of the training of the rest of the team members (employees).

At Pinkberry even if I am going through a bad day I have to leave my problems at home because it's supposed to be a happy place. Yes sometimes its super hard and challenging. Some people get fired because after a while they get tired of being "cheesy" because it is a cheesy job. So cheesy that the 75% of employees are females.

I might not work here forever, but right now I got promoted withing 3 months of only working there because of my good work. People that have been working there for ever have not and I know they probably were a little upset but I think I deserve it for my effort and hard work. They are really flexible when it comes to school, but once you come a shift leader they go hard on you and gives 0 rest. As for now I will be good here. But of course this is not it for me.
