Into the Future


There is no such thing as a time machine. But, if given the chance to travel through time, I would want to go to the future. I have always imagined how the world would look like during that time. It keeps me excited but at the same time, I feel a bit of fear.


When it comes to predicting the future, I become idealistic. Of course, everyone of us wants to have an ideal life. But I came to know that we can't really have this kind of life. Unless we work hard to achieve our goals, we can't have a life that we're dreaming of. Like me, I've always wanted to be a successful nurse someday. In orde to attain this, I try to focus in my studies so that I will have no regrets for not reaching my goal.


In life, there are always the ones that we call, "blocks in our way." These are the things that we need to surpass and overcome for us to emerge as winners in our daily tasks. These blocks serve as our guide and make us stronger in facing what's ahead of us. And if ever we lose hope, there is always one person above who is ready to help us go through those challenges and that is God.


Each one of us has their own perception about the future. Some have already planned on what they will do while some just want to go with the flow. How will our future look like? Nobody knows. The answer lies within ourselves and on how we will build our future. As they say, "The future is in our hands."

The change is ME


The world is so huge. They say, it is very difficult to live there. And yes, in fact, I am on of its inhabitants. No matter how cruel life is, I will keep holding on because I believe I can do something to build a better world.

Crimes committed here and there are like bullets shooting every person it points at. The forbidden drugs just slowly kill the system of those abusers. Forest fires and illegal logging are degrading our natural resources. Pollution is not only destroying our environment, but also the lives of many people. Technology has also been a medium in human trafficking.

We are the first ones affected by all of these hazards. And we should be aware that we are the ones who caused those, as well. What can we do to change this? Or rather, is there still anything we can do?

The answer is simple, but hard to put into action. As a concern citizen, I therefore can make a difference. I am going to start that change with myself. Just by simply putting the trash in the proper place is already a big help help in saving our environment. By having self- discipline, I can contribute in promoting peace in our country.
