When I was young my dream job is to become a Lawyer. It started when my father involved in a case and since we don’t have money, my mother find it hard to get a good lawyer. The cased run for more than 10 years. I realized that if I become a lawyer, I can help poor people to get justice they aim for. That was then.. but later I realized that studying to become a lawyer needs more money and we don’t have enough resources. But until today, I am still dreaming to become a lawyer but everytime I watched something about lawyer na mga nabayaran o kaya wala ng dignidad, I realized that maybe it is not for me. May iba na kailangan nilang ipagtanggol ang client nila kahit alam nila na ito ang may mali, dapat nilang ipagtanggol kasi may pera. At kung ang maging kalaban mo pa ay maimpluwensya o kaya may pera, pwede ka pang ipatira. It’s a risky career.
But.. ever since I am young, I am already exposed to business. My lola had a small sari sari store. May mga pwesto din sa palengke ang mga lola at lolo ko. Don kami bumibili ng isda. I also grow up na meron kaming carinderia and beauty parlor. Meron pa kaming patahian non. Maybe subconsciously nasa akin na ang maging negosyante. My lola taught me how to manage business at paano kung hindi maloko sa business. Tinuruan din nya ako kung paano makisama. I am very thankful for her. She really help me become I am today.
There are times that I miss my Lola so much. She was the best person who showed me so much love.
