Anxiety with my Dreams to be Reality

Since last week, after it was announced that four Filipino sewers were told that their contract will be terminated earlier, it gives me the feeling of uneasiness. I cannot take out from my head who might be next. With this global crisis going on, so many companies from different parts of the globe sent back home their Filipino employees back to the Philippines.

There are times that it gives me anxiety, as I am definitely enjoying the company where I am working right now. I might not be earning that BIG. But I can say I am earning more compared when I was still employed in the Philippines. Working abroad gave me independence. I learned more about myself. Characters that I never thought I have in me. I learned a lot from the people around me. Life definitely is not a bed of roses but it has so many things in store if you will just dream, pray, believe and persevere.

With more than 1 year of my stay here in Cambodia, I am not yet ready to give up this job. I love my job, I love the people I'm working with and I still have my dreams to pursue. There might be a crisis surrounding us, but this won't stop me to dream of having my own house, travel the whole southeastasia, good life for my family, and be ''someone'' someday.

I won't stop praying and working for my dreams to be reality.
