Yesterday, my Brother and I had a conversation about his  “future” job. He asked my opinion on what job best suits him. As her elder brother, I said “It’s up to you. Go for something you are passionate about. Go for something that will make you happy”.My brother answered back “Maybe I will just wait for a perfect job for me.”

His reply really hit me. I wonder how many people around the world thinks like him, believing that a perfect job is worth waiting. How many of them believe that a great opportunity will come for them, not the other way around.

Again, I answered back “You should not be waiting for a perfect job. Instead, you should be searching for it. You will never know that it’s the perfect job for you, unless you already got it.”

I don’t know if my brother was enlightened with these words. I am hoping so.

Maybe some will argue that they became successful because a great chance knocks by their door while they were waiting for it. Well, I say, they must be lucky. Very, very lucky. But life is not only about luck. Not everyone is fortunate like them.

I am not saying that we should not wait for a perfect job because I believe that a perfect job will come to us on its perfect time. Sometimes, it will just knock on your door while you are not expecting it. But it seldom does. My point is, instead of waiting for a perfect job to come for you, then why not go out and search for what’s best for you. Maybe the great job is waiting for you.

Remember, life is too short and time is gold. Don’t waste your life and time for waiting. Instead, use them to explore.

oh yeah i know it sounds too childish (not so new!)

well here’s the story behind this post,

I’m sure you know this movie. Believe it or not it was my first time to watch this movie last Saturday and it wasn’t even intentional. I didn’t even know the title of the movie until late that evening. But I believe that everything happens for a reason.

I felt a bit off and I was emotionally tired. I was impatient (again!) See, I am praying and believing God for things to happen in my life but I wasn’t seeing any result. I told God so many things in a not-so-good tone. One of the things I asked God was, “Now what?!”

Now while my cousin is watching TV

There was a talking pig. Great, I thought. A barn with a bunch of talking animals. I didn’t really care about the movie, I was in fact busy making my to-do list for that day(i mean for the next day). The TV was just making sounds of what seem like people conversing, but didn’t quite understand what they were talking about. I wasn’t really watching. Then something caught my attention. Something Charlotte, the spider said – “good things come to those who wait.”

I immediately stopped what I was doing and thought about what Charlotte said. God spoke to me through a spider! I realized that I could have just watched any other show that night and ask my cousin to watch Twilight or Bolt instead , but I guess God said “Charlotte’s Web”. So “Charlotte’s Web” it was. And of all the lines delivered by those talking animals, that line which Charlotte uttered was the only sentence that I heard clearly.

and then before i went to bed and sleep i look at the cover of this film and I noticed these words

“HELP IS COMING FROM ABOVE”

God does speak to us in ways unimaginable. I’m in awe.

Have a great day
