RED2018 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Farewell Letter by a Retiree Hanggang sa Muli...Sa gitna ng mahahalagang bagay na maaari kong malisan ay dapat kong harapin at naising tupdin ang hindi lamang karampat na diwa kong punong-puno ng pagpapahalagang higit at matamang pagpapatuloy sa ibang gawi, at sa piling ng tiyak na mas marubdub na galak… Ang nilalaman ng aking puso na hindi kayang ilapat sa bawat titik at pinakamalilim na salita na maaaring mamutawi mula sa aking bibig, na impit na narinig at naunawaan ng mga taong mahalaga sa akin, ay lirip ng higit na kahalagahan. Batid kong marami pang pagsubok ang darating, mga pagtutunggaling maaari ko pang pagtagumpayan, at mga kaibigang makakaututang dila’t mukha - kasing dami ng tamis na malalasap ng kahit sinuman sa patuloy na paghanap ng payak at wagas na kaligayahan. Ang mga pangyayaring wangis man natin o hindi ay patuloy kong yayakapin sa mga susunod pang panahon at sa bawat araw, kalakip ang pagnanasang puspusin nawa ako ng tagumpay at matatag na kalusugan. Hindi kailanman ako nagnilay-nilay sa mga kabiguan at pagkakamaling maaari kong magisnan, o kalabitin at anyayahan ng mga kabagabagan. Sa aking pagtanto sa pag-inog ng buhay, nais kong isipin na mas maraming bituin sa gitna ng maigsing silim ng gabi. Wala nang hihigit pa sa wagas at tunay na pagpapatuloy sa panibagong daigdig tangan at akap ang tango ng mga mahal sa buhay. Nawa’y patuloy na pumulandit ang langisngis ng kaligayahan, tagumpay, at katarungan sa aking mga susunod at natatanging paglalakbay, matapos ang dalisay at kahali-halinang kapirasong lupalop ng nakaraang yugto at kamalayan.Sa gitna ng mga huling yugto…, inaasahan ko ang kapiling sa mga sugapang pagdatal ng muling pagtatagpo…Ang lamlam ng pamamaalam ay tabon sa galak na maidudulot ng mga muling pagkikita. Natitiyak kong sadyang mas maangas ang pagsibol ng bukang liwayway kaysa sa banta ng takipsilim… 1 Quote Link to comment
