I saw my mother and father already getting weary at work. They are at their limits and no longer in a prime state. I assess myself everyday to redirect my focus back. This allows me to continue my work and in my mind I want to give back a life of complete comfort as they did to me. My parents gives me inspiration and fuels my dedication.

3 months ago, I have been through one of the greatest challenge of my life. It tested my faith, my character, and my entire being. My family was also affected with this challenge. It had me doubted and questioned myself. And until now, it still hurts. However, as I go through all the process, it gradually opened my mind and helped me understand almost all of the things. This event of my life also opened my eyes and strengthen my heart, my character, and above all - my faith.
Realizing how great God is even you are full of flaws is what keeps me going and filled my heart with so much hope. Understanding that no matter what happens, a family will always be a family inspired me the most. And the people who underestimated me add fuel to the fire of passion, perseverance, and willingness that they once try to kill.

Waking up every day knowing that my family believes in me is something that gives me hope and inspiration. It may be hard and difficult because of the situation that we are facing right now but their unending support is what gives me hope to keep on looking forward and believe that I can do it.

During these difficult times, I did not expect that I can still witness or experience beautiful acts from strangers. These type of people gives me hope and inspiration to pay forward the good things that they have shown towards me.

It's the art like painting and sketching, well I'm not really into it when I was in high school but I already knew in myself that I have the capability to make something but was not really just minding to make somethin at all. When I got into college that's when it all started. I began to make portraits and/or paint some landscapes to escape my boredom but I realized that I am slowly captivated by doing or making some pieces and also makes me feel happy when people appreciates it.

One thing that keep me going is my faith in God in order to survive anything. I aspire to get a degree of psychology to pursue my dreams and help my mom who’s affected by mental health problems. Also to payback all the sacrifices of my father and my stepmom who sustain my studies. Including every individuals who suffered from mental issues to provide an intervention.

# data[].attributes.body
My family gave me hope and inspiration when in times I feel unmotivated especially my father who taught me to be strong in facing everyday circumstances. He do his best to feed us and to support us financially even if he loses his job already but he never gave up. He always find ways for me not to stop schooling that's why he is my inspiration to do my best on my studies.

Something I came across recently that gave me hope or inspiration is my Mother who always believes in her children despite being away from us, to sustain our needs and wants. She never failed us to shower her love. The warm hugs and kisses that I missed, her lullaby, the food she makes, my mother makes me do my passion for me to show her that I am brave enough to stand on my own two feet. She gave me duties and responsibilities to take care of my siblings. Sometimes I get lost in my dark days, make many mistakes but she always forgave me and accepted me every time I'm not myself anymore. She's my first ever bestfriend, the one who I tell my secrets and my tantrums to, she always guides me and advises the things which are good for me or not. She always supports me even though I am not good enough but still, she is still there to give me her sweet smile and warm cheer for me. I missed her.

Genshin Impact. Although, I wasn't a big gamer myself. I love the game and the lessons is has since it is story based. There's a lot of friendships that I made online that I couldn't exchange for the world. It takes away the sad things sometimes and keeps me on my toes when needed. I'm glad I still like playing this after a few months, since I was known to get tired of things easily after playing for awhile.

Plus, my cats. They're adorable little dorks that I have to be responsible of.

Recently, i have seen the lolo who collects plastic bottles for his living. Back then whenever i saw some plastic bottles i collect it myself so that i can gave it to lolo. There was a time that he rest outside our house, then i saw him. At that day I gave him 100 pesos and tell him that "lo, you should buy rice for that money okay?" He said that "yes dae, salamat kaayu naa najud ko pampalit bugas salamat kaayu dae" that time i was touched knowing even in a small quantity, he is very thankful. After that we had a chika and she always tells me everytime we see each other, he always ask "graduate naka dae? Padayun jud dae ha lamposa jud na imong kurso para makatabang pakas uban". With that, whenever i saw lolo or other kids that do the same living. I myself got inspired to them, whenever I saw them, I always say in my mind that "paabota lang ko, tabangan ra nya tamo".

I came across this self-help book recently that talks about accepting that being uncertain is better than being certain, that everything is a choice and that whether you do something or not you are choosing either way, that its okay to fail and be in pain for that is all part of the process, and many more.  It inspired me to be in control or take charge of my life, to not be too hard on myself and to not be afraid to take greater risks.

"There are numberous ways in which God can make us lonely and lead us back to ourselves"

There was a time when I felt lost and felt like I was going nowhere. This made me realize that that's normal, and that you need a little bit of faith to get through the darkness.

What inspired me as of the moment is surpass the last school week! All of us are looking forward to the end of the school year because we are mentally, emotionally, physically, and academically tired. We all deserve a breather after all the pent up stresses but before all of those I want to pass the course so that my vacation would be peaceful and not worry about anything.

Prayer is the one thing that I always rely on because that's what my parents have always taught me and it's something I believe in. Nothing is in your hands and you have no idea about the future either. It's uncertain. But prayer to me is a hope that makes me believe that things will work out fine . You just need to hang in there and give it your best.😇💖

Recently, I had doubts about achieving my plans after college because of the "what ifs" that came to mind, and then the next day, while scrolling through my Facebook feed, I came across a post that said "whatever your dreams are, you can achieve them," which surprised me because yesterday I had been doubting myself, and it was like a gentle reminder to believe in myself.
