Compliments


Have you ever heard a compliment about you? Have someone told you how he believes in you and how he sees your capabilities and tells you, “I know you can do more”? oh well.. gusto ko lang i-share na a while ago, after our meeting, I received a compliment… Ate K, my group coordinator told me something I’ve been dying to hear for a long time… (yes, I used ‘dying’ cos I waited for this news for so long and now… I got it!) She told me that…



“Siguro nagtataka ka na bakit yung mga ka-batch mo, may mga service na sila… tapos ikaw, wala. Hmm… kasi  I reserved you for something bigger. Hindi ko/kami kasi nakikita na para ka doon sa existing groups na ‘yon kasi nakikita kita na para ka sa mas mataas na level… so, you’re for C.Y.A – it’s for young adults. It’s more mature… so nakikita kong mas mature ka… kaya nireserve kita para doon.”


It wasn’t exactly what she said but it was sort of like that…

Sa totoo lang, ang tagal kong hinintay ‘to. matagal ko rin pinagdadasal na mabigyan ako ng service kasi gusto ko i-extend ang aking paglilingkod. Gusto kong mag excel, gusto kong mapayaman pa yung nalalaman ko at gusto ko rin na mapalalim pa yung pananampalataya ko. Gusto ko rin na patunayan sa iba na may mga bagay akong kayang gawin…

Natanong ko rin naman sa sarili ko na… “Hindi ba sapat yung mga naipakita ko?” o “Ano pa ba ang kulang sa ‘kin?” “Hindi kaya dahil sa hindi ako lively or ma-boka, kaya hindi ako pinipili?”

But I was wrong… ‘cos they’re preparing me for something more… something bigger… something new and challenging! And I love challenges. So, I’m going to embrace that challenge and be ready for more mature roles and activities.


It’s an early Christmas gift! J
