“What” and “If” are two words as non-threatening as words can be. But put them together side-by-side and they have the power to haunt you for the rest of your life: What if? What if? What if? I don’t know how your story ended but if what you felt then was true love, then it’s never too late. If it was true then, why wouldn’t it be true now? You need only the courage to follow your heart. I don’t know what a love like Juliet’s feels like - love to leave loved ones for, love to cross oceans for but I’d like to believe if I ever were to feel it, that I will have the courage to seize it. And, Claire, if you didn’t, I hope one day that you will.

There are times that I can’t help but wonder about my job and all the things that goes along with it. I always find myself doubting everything and I keep on thinking if am I too old for this? or if am I too young for that?
It’s really exhausting, but at the same time I feel so blessed that I get to live the best of both worlds. That phrase may sound cliche, but it’s somewhat true since I’m already experiencing things that most of the people around my age won’t experience at least before they reach the age 35, and yet I’m only 21 years old.
I’ve just started enjoying my adulthood when all these huge responsibilities and obligations came crashing down like an avalanche (which, FYI, can also be perceived as blessings). So even saying “I wasn’t prepared” is a complete understatement. I guess that’s the hardest part of it all. Because it’s not that I wasn’t ready, but it’s the fact that I wasn’t given enough time to accept that I will never get to pursue some of the dreams and plans that I have for myself. But being under this circumstances for almost six months now, I’ve finally accepted that whatever I’m doing right now will be the center of my life for a very long time, and I guess I can live with that. Especially now that I have finally found joy and peace of mind in this career path I have unconsciously taken.
However, there are times that I still struggle between my age or maturity level and what my job requires me to do. Because eventhough I’m still young and I have all the right to act like a normal 21 year old, my job already requires me to act or be like someone way ahead of my age.
But someday I will be better than today…
