THE TURNING POINT OF MY LIFE but STILL SO BLESSED!

XYZA?! xyza is pregnant?! the xyza who was labeled "HOPE AMONG THE SIBLINGS" by his parents?, the one who didnt gave tuition fee-headache to her father during college because she was a scholar?yep! she got pregnant alright!

These were just the common things I hear in the neighborhood in those days, i reminisce the time when i got pregant at an early age...i was 19 way back then (i just turned 21 by the way :)) when i got pregnat i was in my third year in college taking Bachelor in Elementary Education speciallizing in SpEd (special education). Among my sisters, i was the one labeled "hope of the family" because they say i was born with a halo over my head, in other words compared to my sisters im the one who does most good deeds, the one with the most talents and skills and the one who academically performs better, im not saying that my sisters are dumb, the heck, we were all born smart only that im the one who was focused on everything so-to-say. i was used to hearing the good praises from my parents, relatives and neighbors for my achievements and accomplishments most especially in school. i was the silent type, so no one could ever imagine that in just a snap, their so-called "angel" got pregnant. just imagine the shock my family had; my friends, classmates and the gossip-thirsty neighbors were all so shocked,, the time when the news exploded it was like a movie in slow motion,, like everything stopped for a moment; as i close my eyes right now i can remember the gossiping, the mocking eyes, the shocked expressions on their faces,,it was absurd though the truth still remains that i was pregnant.
There are past events in our life that we dont ever want to remember and this is just one of the "major events" that shall i say marked a big stain in my history. For 9 months i was flooded and bombarded with sufferings but i embraced it all with no regrets, though some of my friends whom i tought were true left me hanging, but still im so blessed for a few never left and even helped picked up the broken pieces of me and helped me to be whole again. and i thanked GOD for making these few people a part of my infamous life. :)
on the 29th day of march 2008, i gave birth to a healthy baby boy whom i named GODWIN MATHEW, (Godwin means " a gift from God" , and Mathew means "a friend of God") and since then my life was never the same again, i have an angel who makes my day complete, who makes me smile even when im tired, who makes me shout "i dont have any regrets!!!"....

so for those people with similar case as mine,, DONT LOOSE HOPE..GOD HAS HIS OWN PLAN FOR YOU, A MUCH BETTER ONE. HE DOESNT DO THINGS FOR NO REASON, TAKE IT FROM ME :)

  1. Our trials will make us stronger people. The heck with people who will judge us, if we fall no one can pick us up but ourselves. You are one brave girl.;-)
