On finding the light…

I am reading a book on Lee Kwan Yew’s crucial years. His point of view of an educator is that one must have the aptitude to teach, coax, even cajole if necessary, and to give oneself. It is a talent that should be shared and not just to be treated like any other job. Can’t be compared to any factory worker, can’t be looked at as a big compensation package. We put heart on this vocation. It makes me think on how I want to really pursue this study. But the fat that someone will get hurt with leaving the country to pursue y dream. It gets me really confused on what priorities to take. But I made a promise to myself and I don’t intend to break it because I want to follow my dream. I hope I can find a compromise on this where I can serve both and be happy. The 2 choices are repelling ideas if we base on consequence, it targets different audiences, but they have the same intention. Doing such decision is mind boggling. Why didn’t the Philippines create such an opportunity and be a country with values and discipline. So studies and work can be found here. No more sad goodbyes at the airport because people have to find a good work outside the country. I hope this nation find the light and be disciplined, equipped and be able to stand proudly.
