Moving on is not about forgetting the past, but about embracing the present and shaping the future. It's a journey of letting go, a process that requires both courage and compassion.
Moving on means learning from our experiences, identifying our strengths and weaknesses, and embracing the opportunities that lie ahead. It didn't happen in a snap of a finger, It was step by step process, little by little.
I sorounded myself with positive energy, wala naman akong mapapala sa mga tao na ang tingin sa akin bobo, Tanga, mayabang, at wala mararating sa buhay. Im trying to become a better version of myself. I don't want to be hated for what I was before.
Weeks Later*
I decided to resign. I gave my resignation letter to my boss and packed my things. Nang makauwi ako, nagulat si Mich na meron akong dala na gamit. "OMG! nagresign ka?" Tumango ako. "Yes, kanina lang... I gave my resignation letter and I just left, ayaw naman sakin ng boss ko, ayaw din sakin ng mga ka workmates ko, edi babye!"
Sobrang saya sa pakiramdam na makaalis sa isang toxic na lugar. "Akala ko talaga doon kana mamamatay, tanggap ka lang kasi ng tanggap ng trabaho, di ka naman nagrereklamo, thank you at naka alis kana!" Natawa ako sa sinabi niya. "Ano nang gagawin mo ngayong nagresign kana?" tanong ni Anthony habang sa kusina naghuhugas ng pinagkainan namin.
"hmmm magtatake ako ng board exam para sa architecture and I will raise my own child" nanlaki ang mata nila sa sinabi ko, I'm 5 weeks pregnant. Nag pacheck up ako sa doctor dahil isang buwan na akong hindi dinadatnan at tuwing umaga naduduwal ako.
"You're pregnant?" tumango ako bilang sagot, "Ipapaalam ko sana ito kay Lance no'ng araw na maghiwalay kami kaso naunahan niya ako, wala siyang dapat ikabahala sa bata dahil kaya ko naman siyang buhayin at palakihin na walang ama..." Niyakap ako ni Mitch.
Kaya ko itong buhayin, oo may karapatan siya bilang ama pero ayokong maging parte siya ng magiging buhay ng anak ko.
