Being inspired is not only a matter of having someone to idolize through his material achievements. Sure, it could be part of it but as you dig deeper, there may be more that meets your eye.
We’ve been to Dr. Arnold T. Pasia’s house yesterday. He’s a Cardiologist and a few years back, he was the one who inspired me to have the same sub-specialization in the future.
At first glance, seeing his house would really make you think, “His job must have made him really rich to be able to have a house built like this.”
But as we explored on how the house was built, what inspired the promising doctor to build it, and even the story behind the architectural design, you’d realize that nothing on the surface could match to how inspiring this house has been both for the family and for those who had the privilege to know its history.
“My inspiration in building this house? I can say that it’s really my FAMILY. I wanted them to have a very comfortable life,” he said in our interview. And all the while he was talking, his wife was beside him, supplying some information that he missed.
The architecture for the house is his brother, whom he paid for to go to college. It was his way of paying back all the time, money and support his brother had given him all throughout and as you look around the house while listening to Dr. Pasia talking about its history, you could also imagine the laughter and love revolving around the place while it was under construction.
True that you needed to have something to be able to do another thing. Dr. Pasia made us believe that somehow, all you really needed is love, and gratitude. :D
