GREATER THAN MILLIONAIRE

In my previous article, I said that I was a unique person, one of a kind, so gifted and so talented, and so to speak a millionaire. But the truth of the matter that is an understatement, because I even worth more than a million. This is the way we should think about ourselves. The potential to have all the things we wanted in life never stop. We are the goose that lays the golden eggs. The power to have all the wealth and riches, fame and glory lies in our hands, minds and hearts.

My family, friends, classmates, teachers, officemates and the people I acquainted with have one word about me and that is I am Intelligent. This praises of them sink in my heart believing that I was really an intelligent man. For a very long time I fooled myself because I let other people used me for their personal gains and interests. One of the lessons I learned in life that being an intelligent is not all you need, you should be wise and wiser enough to use your power and might for yourself and not for other people.

To illustrate this, I will share with you my previous work experiences. I work as pastor and missionary for more than 25 years during those years I started receiving transportation and food allowances and leave the rest of my needs to God while my missionary counterparts have all the luxuries and comforts in life.

Then I work as field coordinator under a certain Quezon City Councilor, but actually my job is to solemnize marriage in his "Free Mass Wedding Program" every Saturday. Since it is a local government unit, I just receiving small sum of money not even sufficient to compensate my personal and family needs. Relying on special wedding bookings I have if any to augment my monthly expenditures.

For more than seven years, I was so faithful in doing my work, I absent not even once but what I get instead, when I was not able to renew my license, my name was deleted from the payroll list. Do I deserve this fate? humanly speaking it is not. But in politics, corporate or business world, I deserve it because my presence is no longer needed. All I need to do is to accept the fact and leave.

From June 2010 up to this very moment, I was and I am jobless. Unlike other companies when your contract ended or when you are terminated you have some benefits that you can use to start over again. Till now I am timid to ask about it.

I will not resolve my present problem by selling my body parts or organs like other people did just to survive. Do you know that you can sell your plasma, the yellowish and protein packed liquid component of your blood for $200 and once approve you can do it on monthly basis under the so- called organ donation scheme.

My friends, be with me today as I soar high in the skies, dive the deepest seas, scale the highest mountains, and travel the endless roads that leads us to financial freedom. You and I worth more than a million and that goose that lays a golden eggs.
