on my way to the seminar yesterday, a guy joshua called me.

without going into the details of the call, the following transpired between us:

"your scouts are really lucky to have you. you're a great role model." - him

"well, i hope so. they are really special to me, and i hope that with right guidance and direction, they'd be able to become the unique individuals i already know they are." - me

"serene, if anyone could do it, it'd be you." - him

man...i almost forgot how i felt about these boys. i just can't wait to see them again during tomorrow's big walk. i just hope they'd be a little more receptive towards me...but yeah, rome wasn't built in a day.

this month marks a year since i officially joined ycsog. it's been helluva ride, especially for the last six months.

my boys have become an integral part of my life...and that's purely because i know that i can help make their lives better. i want to teach them that nothing, absolutely nothing, is impossible. and i am the perfect example...if you read my previous blogs, you'd know what went on in the recent weeks. it's nothing short of a voyeur's dream.

just a couple of months ago, i never even thought i'd get here. now i have. and i'm pretty sure, with the right moves and attitude, i'd be where i want to be in 5 years, or maybe, less. i don't know. but by the time i realize that immediate goal, i may find it totally pointless then...haha.

i just realized last night, and right after penning down the above...that I AM, indeed...

INSPIRATION PERSONIFIED.

well, i could be.
