comfort zone

I don't know if it's just me, but I always find myself creating psuedo-comfort zones.
Maybe, it's my way of being sane, of keeping up in this crazy-world, and reminding myself that no matter what, i will not be forsaken and everythings's going to be ok.

It's a blessing, that in the two places I've been, I was able to meet good people who I could call as friends. People who I never even met when I was back home. Some already left before I even came to globe, and some worked for the other operator. Funny because at this point, some things just don't matter anymore -- age, generation gaps, work groups.. the only thing that matter is that all of us know that we are doing great sacrifices for our own reasons. And each other's company becomes a good reminder that all of these are in passing, and in the end, we will all be back home.

It's surprising, and at a point, amazing, how we all could adapt to each other's differences. And somehow, I came to realize that at the end of the day, what matters most is how much you shared with each other. Maybe it's true, that when you receive so much blessings, nothing is more wonderful that to share it with others. Because I've witnessed it with my own eyes. I am amazed everytime I see these people extend a hand for someone else's. And as I've always said, nothing is more rewarding than paying forward the goodness.

It's more than a month, and I know, like everything else, my time in Rio will have to be enough. But for this limited time, I knew I learned a lot. I was able to grow more, appreciate life more, live one day at a time, increase my faith and learned to savor every moment of each passing day.

I will not get tired of thanking heavens for the wonderful blessings. Life might be complicated at times, but it is beautiful.
