- After a career highpoint in my TV show Midnight DJ, I found myself out of work for a very, very long time.
- I had small TV projects but not enough to pay bills.
- I got depressed.
- Marriage and having a kid was fun, but there are high and low points. I hated the low points.
- A few more months passed without work..I got into debt.
- Went into small scale business, (Siomai, Water refilling, Tuna, Garments, etc) but was not as successful as I wanted it to be.
- Got even more depressed.
- Said to myself that I did not want to be "artista anymore".
- Then the Cardio Boys asked me to join them again for a TV show in TFC. The pay was small, but atleast it was regular gig. So I took it despite my inner conflicts.
- OK. so I still enjoyed being on the camera. Slowly, no more "I don't want this industry anymore" drama. But still I needed more work to raise my family.
- Started to plan for career using social media to promote myself. Saved up for a mac, to do videos, apps, music etc..
- Got angry with God because I did not get my mac due to unforeseen circumstances. Really, Really, Really angry!!
- After many weeks being angry. One day I got tired of being angry and decided to give-in to the voice in my heart saying "Don't be angry, It will happen, I miss you!"
- Started to do my "list" again. ( My daily ritual where I write things I want to ask GOD for.)
- 24 hours into my list. I got a text message that TV5 wants me for a Daily TV show.
- Conflict of schedules with my other (TFC) show. Also, my partner in crime (Oyo) was thinking of declining the TV5 show due to schedules problems, we both got offered to be tandem for the show, Possibility of getting cast not looking good anymore.
- Was supposed to get angry again. But instead, decided to REST and SPEAK favor to my life.
- Somehow without lifting a finger or manipulating anything, everything fell into place and I found myself in the Presscon, workshop and next week, the pictorial and pilot taping of the show.
- Now, I have the cash to buy an entry level mac, but I'll save up for a better specs one. maybe in a few more weeks.
- Not only do I want to buy a mac, but I am also looking for a car.. Pajero, Hilux or something thats big and diesel.
- My life and career is turning around for the better! Despite being angry, being an ass and bitter against God In my low times, he never left me and I still felt his love despite the curses I hurled. I am loss for words on how grateful I am of his love. Grabe.. sobrang Grabe!!!
JESUS IS AMAZING
