What I stand for?

              A lot of people especially the youth are trying to figure out what they really are as a person. Mainly because, this is the stage of their life that they question their identity according to Erik Erickson, a German psychologist who described life stage virtues into eight stages. Identity vs Role confusion is the fifth stage which among twelve to twenty years of age. I remember myself during that age as my worst years in my life and I believe that these confusions I had before affects what I am as a person today. This is nothing new for most of in the LGBT community because this is really what happen to us at this stage. What I had experienced affects the decision I make today and sometimes I will just assess first if it is really for my good or not. When I was 20 years old, I made a decision to myself that I will stand for what I feel and just live in peace with it- 'I'm gay' and should be proud of it I say to myself. I made a stand after long years of questioning my identity though I really dont know what gay really is. I dont want to write here how or what made me decide on this because there is a person involve which is very close to mine. Now, I believe that not all we stand for at certain time is always right and people like us, gays and lesbian, should always open our eyes, heart and mind on what really is good. We don't need to rush and pressure ourselves but I know someday, we can identify ourselves which on the right thing.

           Another thing, I believe that someday I will be successful nurse-entrepreneur here in the Philippines. According to recent news, the economy of the country is really boosting now. Thumb-up for our country and other Asian countries. I know that God is really doing something good for our country and we just have to be patient and persistent in doing our works good. I may not be an OFW that can give remittances to our country but I am not a lazy person who will try to wait for a government or anybody to support my needs. This is an attitude that I really hate and sad at the same time. Because some people spend their time rallying and protesting against our government and if you ask them if they have work, some of them would say that they don't have while some people keep on making babies but still they also does not have a decent job to support their family. I find them irresponsible and selfish people who doesn't care at all.

            Not only I dream to work in a hospital as a staff nurse but I am looking forward that I can be an employer too and also serving my fellow Filipinos who need a center or clinic that will give them a low-cost maternal and child check-ups and delivery. In God's grace, I know that I can achieve my dreams to make it possible. I believe that when you surrender your life to God, everything can happen smoothly. Trust and Patience are the two things that I need to practice in my life. Worrying will only get me to nowhere and believing that anything and everything is possible in him. Also, I need to be patient because there is really perfect timing for all of us.

              What I stand for in issues like politics, religion, culture, tradition and many other issues present are whats next for me to write. I end this on the note that what really matters in life is what we stand for and it does not matter what other people will say about you.
