All that jazz...
This week is one heck of a roller coaster ride. All the emotions from being depressed to being ecstatically elated, from being giddy giddy to being grumpy...name them and I think this week will present all that.
Sunday, after the victorious kasangga, I watched You are the One with 4 of my yfc buddies. Haha...that day was just undeniably happy. Just because. :)
Tuesday, I got to handle what I thought was a difficult, above average class patient. All throughout the day, when I assisted her, I concentrated on the fact she's not just my client but someone given by God for me to care for. Without pretensions or hypocrisy, I did think that by genuinely helping her I was glorifying and pleasing God.
At the end of the day she told me she was so thankful I was her nurse. She even told my clinical instructor that she appreciated all the things i did for her.
AND that just struck me with happiness.
I just felt s00000000000000 happy. Now I really know how it feels to help without bounds...to help and care not because an evaluation of performance was at stake but because one truly feels that God is present in the person he's/she's assisting.
Now I really love nursing.
Wednesday, though toxic, I served my patient with zeal. She similarly thanked me for being good to her. In addition to that, the patient whom I cared for the day before was actually looking for me!
Man! I was twice happy!
I actually slept soundly with a smile plastered on my face because I indeed helped with all honesty. I was on a high!
That night I prayed to God and thanked Him for leading me to what my heart really desired: service. I may not have gone into UP as I had planned but my experiences now are just mind blowing!
I'm just sooooo blessed, I want to throw a party because I was happy whole week long!

To Jebby...for being the person who witnessed me cry after being subjected to a traumatic talk with my CI, thank you. You were at the right place, at the right time. Thank you for simply listening.
To Cathy...for offering her shoulder to me when I threw a drama fit at Tokyo Tokyo inspite of our distance and little communication...thank you.
To Benjo for simply being there when I needed someone to talk to and bring me out of the temptation to doubt God's ways...thank you, thank you.

I just read How to find your one true love by Bo Sanchez. Never knew I had been at the wrong track all along.
Haha...kilig.
