Sharing random thoughts and events in my life that might inspire you

No, I wasn’t humming. It was a full-blown rendition of Carpenter’s “Top of the World” lol. Mind you, this was after several painful situations that happened to me in the past weeks. I don’t want to dwell on them. Because I just want to move on. So, even if you bug me with questions about it, no, I’ve decided it’s something I wanted to bury and consider a ghost of my past

Why am I singing at the top of my lungs at brunchtime in the sweltering heat of the summer on an empty stomach? Oh well, I just realized that God wouldn’t allow you to wallow in self-pity, and He would raise you if you need it. But only if you ask humbly for it.

I did. I was praying fervently for deliverance every single day and He heard my prayer. Last month, I received a great news I wasn’t really expecting. I finally achieved my dream of becoming a full-fledged teacher. I was accepted at Rare Job as an ESL tutor for Japanese students. The process was complicated but I was able to pass them with flying colors.

I know many of my readers had been my mentees at Starbucks, and that was the period in my life that I would cherish until death. Starbucks has taught me a lot and honed my teaching skills. Every class that I facilitated was something I’m proud to say was born out of hard work and dedication. I only impart precious experiences that I know helped my career because I wanted everyone I’m mentoring to be inspired and become successful as well.

This morning, I received another fantastic news that I’m still not at liberty to share. Today was also our company town hall, which happens every month, and I was just so happy to see my workmates virtually, whom I already consider my family. They might not know it, but I care for them a lot. Since we’re from various parts of the Philippines and the world, seeing them in person would be next to impossible for me. But working with them has been a source of joy for the past more than two years.

So those are the reasons I found myself singing my heart out today. I hope you also find time for it because it’s pure catharsis.

What songs do you belt out of nowhere? Let me know in the comments!
