have you thought about what would have happened had you taught at Adamson? Had you missed the day's bus and the priest caught up with you and told you of his plan for you to teach at Adamson High School?
Would you have preferred not going to canada? would you have preferred marrying somebody else then?
I have asked myself the same question again and again....and though I loved my wife and my kids, I do am very interested in imagining what my lif ewould have been had this happened or that happened. and the guilt about the missus and kids, well, I wouldnt have known it if my life went the other way, and they wouldnt have known it either, in fact the kids most probably wouldnt be here in the first place.
One thing I like thinking about is....if I stayed at work in Manila, there is a strong possibility that I would be a department head of the company now, which isnt that big, but it would have been more than enough for finances. And the apple of my eye that time would have been, hopefully, my wife. and that really excites me because that woman is the most beautiful woman, and shapely woman I have ever seen. And she wasnt high pride...I wonder where she is now. O great, she is sad, some querida of some congressman who just wants her body, hehe let me be the Knight in shining armour, after all these years hehe.....FROM Longwaybye..

Like you, I never regretted marrying my wife. And yes, I could not have married her if I went to see our Spiritual Director after graduation and he told me there is a job reserved for me in the high school department. Because, who would not like to work in Manila? If you are a provinciano, like I was, I would have jumped at the chance to be teaching in Adamson U. It is right in the heart of the city where the sounds and lights dazzle people. Besides Adamson is beside St. Teresa and Sta. Isabel, the home of beautiful women in that part of san Marcelino St. But I had a little misunderstanding with the Father so I did not go and see him. Nahihiya ako. So I went straight home to Pangasinan and continued where I left as an Asinganian. But in the end, I married a beautiful and classy lady ( she is still beautiful up to now, you can check her photos ). She is one of those many women endowed with ageless beauty and after 4 decades, she had already adjusted to my quirks and whims and vice versa. She's a St. Louis University (SLU ) Baguio graduate and I believe she could blow some of those Colegialas from St. Teresas out of the water!---#
