It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years. I have fond memories of seeing which photos were popular and had hoped to share them with you. It was surprising to see how many views my pictures had accumulated. While deleting them, I noticed that many restaurants and bakeries no longer exist, with some marked as unknown on the map. Most of my photos were from the pandemic period, a time when I could fully express myself and write about the food I enjoyed. Let's take a trip down memory lane with Carmina th...
Two days ago I was talking to my friend and she had mentioned to me she woke up having a dream.
In her dream she was a successful lawyer and when she woke up she felt her current job had no challenge to push her forward in looking into her work daily.
Do you think it is too late to go back to college when you’re in the half of a century?
Does anyone you know have place themselves to school at an old age?
My friend felt she wanted to go back to school even if she had counted how many years it would take when she would graduate.
Sometimes in our life we choose a major that we’re unsure what type we wanted and only went based on who we’re dating during our college years.
We never consider or look ahead to see what we’re actually good at when we’re young.
Or who knows we had parents who had meddle in our own career choices saying you’re not good at that field.
Either way we reach a turning point in our career where there is no challenge and direction to go forward.
We put ourselves to think further to see whether the thought of becoming a lawyer would have been a better choice if they had decided upon it years ago.
Or is it just a phase in our life where we’re just not happy at our current employment.
My friend whom I have spoken on the phone is not the only one feeling this way. I’ve come across a lot of my friends they felt they made the wrong choices by working in a company or career they fell for during that time.
When you’re older it is hard to decide whether to stay at you’re current job because you begin to think when you start to retire will you be able to have the savings and earnings till the years to come.
You tend to withdraw from what you want from yourself and confuse whether if you’ve made a wrong decision.
I have friends who have told me that Carmina you’re wasting your time from all the English you know you can be using it somewhere else where you can have an income from it.
I guess I never consider myself lucky to have English my first language and Tagalog became my second.
