Be Careful What You Wish For

Hello dear friends. So for two days now, I haven't gotten any good sleep yet. And here's why. Well, it seems like the universe has been listening way too closely with our conversations lately and somehow misinterpreted one of my wishes. It was just that a couple of days ago, in one of our random conversations, I casually mentioned to my friend that I miss working in the hospital so I'm quite hesitant on taking her up with her offer to apply again in the academe. This was actually the first time that I  voiced out this sentiment of mine. Then the next day, after I got home, I checked my niece because she has been sick for a couple of days and I saw that rashes appeared all over her body. So I talked with my mom and calmly (which is the only way you should tell her, otherwise you'll have both of your hands full with a sick kid and a highly anxious grandmother) informed her that it's a possible case of dengue so we went to the hospital immediately. There we confirmed that it's positive and we had her admitted. When everything was settled, and I was left all alone to watch over my niece for the night, that's when realization struck and I remembered the words I mentioned earlier. It was kind of unsettling that something like this would happen right when I was in that crucial moment wherein I'm deciding about my future. It's like the universe is telling me "You've put this in the back burner for far too long and now it's time for you to decide." Being back in that place gave me a sudden rush of feeling. Like I felt alive and I'm back in familiar waters. I guess it's really true that wherever your heart is, it makes that place home to you. And I think I found my answer. So for now, if the universe is still listening, I hear you. I. Hear. You. So please - pretty, pretty please - just let my favorite gal get well now. :')

P.S. Dear readers, please do pray for her recovery too. I'm not asking for much, just please include her in your prayers/meditations/wishes (whatever else you call it). It would really mean so much to me. Thank you. :)
