Here Comes the Brave

<.>

Ladies & Gentlemen,

After 226 days of hope, of faith and of life
After 226 nights of doubt, of restlessness and of pains
After 32 weeks of irrelevance and purposelessness
After 7 months of soul searching
After 7 months of eating my pride
After 30 weeks of not communicating with my family
After 71 days in a deserted island

After almost 300 internet hours spent
After close to 200.000 pesos in financial obligations incurred
After a little less than a million pesos in lost salary
After more than 2,000 job applications sent
After just 12 interviews attended
After 98 new blog entries posted
After more than 300 new friendster requests accepted
After 14 new passports stamped
After 3 gallons of tears shed

After injuring my spinal chord
After extracting another tooth
After spending Christmas, New Year & Lent in Iran
After losing my mobile phone
After selling my laptop
After sleeping over with strangers
After almost losing it all

After all the frustrations and depressions
After all the heartaches and pains
After all the trials and tribulations
After all the sufferings and madness

HERE COMES,

The end of the tunnel
The sunshine after the rain
The rainbow after the storm
The beginning of the end
The dawn of a new beginning

HERE COMES THE JOB.

HERE COMES ME.
HERE COMES THE BRAVE.
