Did you know that Attila the Hun died of Nose Bleed?
Anyways, I am currently reading two History books. My super fave!=) I make sure that I can read a chapter or two every day. I feel like feeding my brain cells with interesting anecdotes po kasi. I am somehow in need of variation. (Puro Chemistry at Events na lang ang laman ng utak ko e. =))
I am now at the 4th century. I met the Four Great Fathers of the Latin Church (namely Jerome, Ambrose, Augustine and Gregory the Great) already. On my next read: Manichaeism.
I was also having a little chat with my (lawyer) dad. (And as usual, nose bleed na naman ang lolah ninyo. Hehehe!=)) My (pretty) mom and I ended up talking na lang about my most fave topic. Events management, that is. =)
Actually, my folks and some of my friends dislike the idea that I am so fascinated with this career. I was offered a Mall Manager position three weeks ago kasi. And gee, the pay was so tempting! With car plan, insurance and lots of perks! And last sem, several friends even recommended me to be their School Director, Marketing Head, Chief Editor, etc. Now, that's the ultimate dream for many people. Tanga na nga lang daw ang tatanggi duon. Therefore, ladies and gentlemen, "tanga" ako. Hehehe! C'mon, that's a comic gold. =)
As for me, nothing beats the excitement of events. It's just so thrilling!!! After all, it's for and all about people. And I love human beings, hehehe! =) Kiddin' aside, I was never tempted with money. I would still cheerfully serve to as many people as possible kahit walang bayad. But, of course, it would be (more than) naive for me to say that I don't need it. It's just that I was not raised to love money. According to the book that I read last time, "everything is passing, nothing is secure."
I also believe in equality and that there's plenty for everyone. In fact, I believe in the virtue there is in generosity. Whenever I commute nga po, which is my way of life, my (one-way) transpo cost should be only P8.50, right? There are amiable drivers who still give me a "Student Discount" pa nga e. But I give them P10 instead. My fave line to whoever renders me with a great service is to "please keep the change." Alam po ninyo, whenever my bill arrives and the service is remarkable, my tip is automatically set at 10%. VAT inclusive pa ha?=) Sana po I can convince you more with the blessings of being a cheerful giver now. After all, my dealings are all from God. =)
As long as my family, friends and I are havin' healthy and happy lives, I believe that I have all that I need. Note: I seldom do follow ups on my clients' inquiries. I believe that He chooses the clients for me. And that my surplus is for all His goodness.
My money in the bank may be worthless in few more years; the insurance may even be out of business when I need 'em most. But there's only thing that remains forever, and that is the love of God. =)
And yes, my faith would be more than my personal history;
it'd be my personal legend. =)
