#1 My Mission In Life

"The most important thing about goals is having one." – Geoffry F. Abert

Mission? Is that really the topic?

I often hear that word to everybody else's mouth. Whenever I hear that word, I just don't pay attention to it and maybe because I have that restricted outlook in life. I am just taking things so easily. But when I was still young, wild and free or shall I say in the middle of knowing more deeper of myself, when someone ask me what is really my mission in life, I just answer so simple and that is to graduate. As I am getting older I realized that I should not just take my missions in life for granted. I should think deeply to know my real mission in life.

Leaving the portals of my Alma Mater is such a sad memories I've ever had. I have been in that school for four years, shared laughters, tears, success, and memories with everybody. Since I have to enter a new chapter in my life, I have to let go of everything and start a new life to other school with new people to be friends with. Now, I am a Freshman College Student Majoring in AB Filipino. To be honest, I didn't planned to take this course. It just accidentally happened. Oh well, I don't wanna talk about how it goes like this but one thing I want to prove to people saying AB Filipino is such a worse course to take. FYI, It is not. I admit, I once thought its a incompetent course but when classes started it changes my mind. Though it is really awkward to say to other people that you are taking AB Filipino.

Upon reading the Parable of The Eagle, I realized that you should learn to spread your wings and learn to fly to be able to reach your goals in life. You need to be independent in order for you to think and have your own goals.
As the story goes like in the Parable of the Eagle, the farmer knew that the eagle is really an eagle but then he wanted to change the eagle to a chicken. When the Naturalist saw the eagle, he insist that it is an eagle not a chicken and it should be taught to fly and not taught to be like a chicken. They tested the eagle for three times and fortunately at third time the eagle learn to fly and did not come back.
I can compare myself to the eagle and the Naturalist to God. If it is not with the help of the naturalist to let the eagle realized that he/she is an eagle, he/she could have been tamed as a chicken not as an eagle.
I am just a simple thinker person. I am only 16 years young and is not that really aware of our society. I have just simple missions in life as of now, but I believe in the near future it will be change and more enhance.

Thinking of my future, I want to shift to a course that I'll definitely going to love and enjoy. I was thinking that what I am taking right now is not the right track to my future. I feel like I should have been taking BS Psychology right now rather than AB Filipino. Not saying that AB Filipino is not a good course to take but I just can't see myself taking a Filipino course. That's my first goal. To achieve that I should strive hard and get a good grades. I am doing this for my parents who really raised me as a good person and is really doing everything to let me finish my studies. If I have already finished my studies, I'd like to pay back all the hardships that my parent went through just to let me study.
Be a successful person. That is my second mission in life. I want to be a successful person not only mentally but also spiritually and physically. Developed more my faith in God.I want to developed myself's faith holistically. I am a follower of God, He is the reason why I surpassed all the trials I have encountered in my whole life.
I want to be everybody's best friend or sister. I love hanging out with people I love. I want to have many friends whom I can lean on to and I also want to be a friend that you can lean on too.
Lastly, I want that everything will happen. I want all my wish and dreams will come true. I always wish to get a chance to travel the whole world, so I hope that will really happen. And I believe that if I have that courage and eagerness, I know it will happen and I can make it... because... Today my Life Begins.
