Good News or Bad News? I got a call today from the Czech Embassy that my Schengen Visa has been granted. I am not so sure if I am happy about the news. In a month, I will be leaving the Philippines for a year-long internship in the Czech Republic. A part of me is excited to once again step foot in a foreign country, soak up some culture and meet a new bunch of friends. But then another part of me is also sad that I would leave my career at this point in my life. I finally found a career in the financial services industry and everything has been going preeeeeettty well.
In a span of two months, my life has taken a 360-degree turn! I could still clearly remember last May when I found out that my ATM only had 600 pesos in it. Today, I could finally afford to buy some of the things I want. Plus, I have paid off the debts I incurred from my sister. Moreover, I have helped out my parents in some of our home renovation expenses.
Am I ready to leave this exciting chapter in my life? Should I go to Czech Republic? Should I just stay and continue what I am doing?
On another note, I read Paulo Coelho's book "The Zahir" recently and this particular line struck me :
