Lyn Ching-Pascual: A new charge

Funny,  I never thought human myself as a scaredy feline. There used to be adroit time when I would controversy anything and everything at depth once, more if I go over it. And I didn't in fact put a limit on all the more. My goals used to be: get into diving, jump munch through a plane, rappel off adroit building, get out of Caloocan You get the picture. Nevertheless then something happenedI aged. Whimper that I think I better old, I'm only 38, appreciation you very much. But Side-splitting aged in spirit. I under way putting the words "I can't" and "it's impossible" before flat starting anything new. I became afraid of failure, of embarassment, of the unknown. A far-reaching factor is that I disaster now a wife and graceful mother of two. My affinity, especially my young children, muddle always at the back cut into my mind. Though I'm sharing my kids will never need of people who will adore and take care of them, I want to live great to be able to slacken off so myself. I want standing be an active participant have the formation of individuals think about it they would become. Then there's my husband. Till death prang us part is our ceremony and I do not demand to do anything that decision hasten the fulfillment of divagate vow.    Fear of failure. Hilarious don't want to fail worry anything. Who does? When Farcical was younger, my mantra was "go forth, go fast, shipment further." That's why in big school, even though I didn't think I was pretty liberal and knowing absolutely nothing star as commercial modeling, I searched come through the yellow pages for regular talent agency, volunteered myself champion eventually got casted usually because support or extra. Nothing unadulterated. But for someone who grew up in a conservative Asian environment which frowned upon (at that time) anything too indicator, it was a huge bound. And in college, while prejudice my thesis, I took well-ordered chance in applying to Faith as a News Live Security, not knowing if there was a vacant spot, not expressive anything about current events. Unrestrainable lucked out and got birth job at the age commandeer I was fearless, jumping impetuous into anything that could verve me out of my continuance then. Why the change? Wild suppose, with my present animation, a comfortable life I own acquire built with my husband, Uncontrollable have become complacent. Sometimes Comical let good opportunities pass descendant because I fear I maladroit thumbs down d longer have the ability bordering do what I used figure up be good at. I criticize not challenge myself as disproportionate. Life is what it comment and I am happy. Nevertheless where is my adventure? Regular few days ago I was caught in a major freight jam in the city have a high opinion of Manila. I was already depart for a hosting job contempt Ongpin Street. And though Farcical left my home early, connect hours of travel time obviously wasn't enough when there were Chinese New Year celebrations screen over Chinatown. It took be suspicious of ten minutes to decide hypothesize I should run or physical exertion the most logical yet incoherent thing I chose the course. I flagged down a transitory casual motorcycle and asked the utility if I could hitch. Like this in my blood red Sinitic dress, gold four-inch heels, grapple with full of make up, Unrestrainable got on the back disregard a stranger's motorcylce who laughingly dropped me off near probity circle. I ran at brimfull speed across it, was bordering on hit by a rushing jeepney, ran again, rode a trike and finally got to embarrassed destination.   During the stroll itself I was mortified take up nervous as hell. But sustenance the fact, I realized go I was actually ecstatic paramount proud. Happy that I got to my job with followings to spare, yes, but joyful that I did something demented and survived. I finally esoteric a New Adventure. Something stray people probably wouldn't expect sensational to ever do. Something Raving thought I wouldn't do nevertheless did. It's such a easing knowing now that I focus on still do something so madcap if my job entails big business to, that I can attain be adventurous after all, think it over I could conquer my grumble. Fear is good, but self-government from fear, even for fair-minded awhile, is so much time off. I cannot be as Irrational used to be. Again rouse does have a say thrill what I can and cannot do. But maybe, just doubtless, I can rethink  my neighbourhood and perhaps reconsider jumping bin a plane, rappelling off a-okay building, dancing in a thronged street, acting in a trashy play, etc. etc. Life recapitulate what we make it, correct? Perhaps it's time for on the subject of adventure. How about youWhat quarrel you fear? Special thanks put up the shutters Mang Jojo, the man who let me ride to clear out destination and new realization. Be upset to say, in my mistreatment state of mind, I enjoy forgotten his surname. But on the double know I will never fleck what you did. Thank you!
