YOU WASTED YOUR DEGREE. SAYANG KA.
Words can stay with a mom for years.
Before you say, "Sayang ka"...
isipin mo muna na hindi mo alam ang buong kwento.
Yes, I could've continued building my career.
I could've stayed in the classroom, the office, or wherever my profession would've taken me.
But I also chose to be present for first steps, first words, school mornings, bedtime stories, and the little moments na hindi na mababalik.
I didn't stop chasing success. I just redefined it.
Success isn't always a promotion, a title, or a bigger paycheck.
Minsan, success is raising kind children.
Building a peaceful home.
Being there when they need you the most.
At minsan, mas masakit pa... kapwa nanay ang unang magsasabing, “Sayang ka.”
The truth is, every mom is making sacrifices-whether she's working, running a business, or staying at home.
Hindi tayo pare-pareho ng journey, pero pare-pareho nating mahal ang pamilya natin.
Salamat sa mga husbands na araw-araw nagsisikap para mabigyan ang pamilya ng choices. Lalo na sa hubby ko 🥹🥹
Some success stories never make it on a résumé.
Some are written in the hearts of the little people who get to call you NAY.
May we stop measuring a mother's worth by the career she has... and start appreciating the love, sacrifice, and faith behind the life she's building.
Minsan matuto rin tayong rumespeto. Yung isang daliring nakaturo sa iba, isipin mo kung ilan ang nakaturo pabalik sayo.
AIN'T "SAYANG", it's "WORTH IT" 🤪
