March 13, 2025 My eyes set on You

 Writing tonight because it was such a day to remember.

I have always been blessed to have one eye that sees at 20 vision despite having a lazy left eye. Today, I had the courage to visit a clinic for my eyes. The schedule did't work out in the morning and I felt frustrated. But the Lord is good. He has made every moment worthwhile as I was able to still have lunch, and meet my TL for our one on one session. In there I was able to be comforted that I can visit the clinic again in the afternoon as well as take leaves whenever I need it. Plus, I was able to be present in the huddle (which was but a timing for my appreciation email received from our Indian QA). I was also chosen as part of a new project. While I wasn't able to join the earthquake drill, my officemate friends were able to help on documentation which I somehow asked them to do.

Come the time I went to St Luke's, I was just expecting that the Doctor would give me the grade of my eyes and evenually take glasses as I was there for farsightedness consultation. Then there were tests to do. 

That I would need a day off so the procedures would be done. Also, I would need a companion as it will take about 4 hours to do all the tests, and 4-6 hours to be able to recover from the tints and solutions that will be put in my eyes. 

No one else knew today's errands but the Lord and a friend. I was glad to have been offered the help I needed. I am thankful. 

The dread filled me but the Lord has comforted me. That breather was just what I needed tonight to go on the tests. Still awaiting for the schedule but I shall sleep with gratitude that I could be able to surpass what my grandparents have experienced during the later years of their lives. I pray that this fear won't paralyze me but give me the courage to trust in the Lord.

To cap off some good learning today I shall write it here:

We are not just a person of each other but an individual for everyone. We must celebrate other person's part in our lives, as well as celebrate their portion with other people. Our love should not be a cage. Let us love and need others. Let them love and need others.
