Today was so busy it's hard to reflect back on it and really think what it is I wanted to write about, sorry. So busy being busy, that's the story of my life, seriously.
Next week I have the launch press conference for Klean Athlete, the Cebu 10's rugby tournament with Lady Mavericks and the 60th birthday party for Cecilia, the founder of the Voice of the Free.
Cecilia, now that's a game changer; a role model. She's my #goalwoman.
I'm most excited about Cecilia's 60th birthday party because I know I'll hear more about who this fabulous woman is. She's amazing, I already know that, but I want to hear more. I know they made a Filipino movie out of her life, that's pretty crazy, but I've yet to search it out to watch it. I know it was playing in one of the local theatres here a while back but I wasn't able to see it.
When I think of how Cecilia dedicated her life to rescuing human trafficking survivors, it really makes me question if I'm really doing as much as I can with myself. Am I really reaching my full potential and giving back all that I've been blessed with and worked hard for. Am I honestly and fully paying it forward?!
Things that make you go hmmm...
I get praised a lot for what I'm doing, the Lil' Sistas Project, but I don't think I'm really doing much. There's so much more I want to do but I just don't know how. I'm trying but it's hard. And I'm sure there's so much more I could be doing but I haven't yet discovered what this "more" really is.
I was asked the other day why I'm doing what I'm doing and my answer was simple, "because it makes life meaningful". Of course my answer is much more complicated than that because I have many reasons why I'm doing it but that was it in a nut shell. Why wouldn't I help if I can?! Exactly.
One day I hope to be turning 60 and having a space filled with people all speaking beautiful things about me and how I impacted their life. Until then though, I'm working with humble beginnings and a passion to further my purpose in this life.
