"As a Genav pilot, most of my work are charter flights and aerial survey across our country which I also enjoyed personally because I was able to discover beautiful places and different cultures of our natives," shared Glenn.
For Glenn, he had to make ends meet. Getting consumed by the situation did not stop him of finding ways to augment the loss of income. "I admit, I was sad about it. But I am blessed to have a supportive family and friends who encourage me to live my life the other way around," shared Glenn.
Luckily, opportunity opened itself when one of the owners of Mesa UP Town Katipunan, who happens to be Glenn's relative, informed him that they were in need of a delivery rider. Glenn did not think twice of accepting the opportunity.
In a time like this, one has to be street smart in order to survive. No inhibitions, no "arte arte". In Filipino terms "diskarte ang kelangan sa buhay, hindi arte."
"Our profession might be holding short right now due to pandemic, but we must never forget that we need to keep ourselves moving- not maybe flying high but living the other way we can until we are cleared for take off again. Be the bigger man."
Our snappy salute goes out to this young pilot! Indeed, what others may say about you does not matter, for as long as what you are doing is noble, it helps others, and it provides for your family, do it with pride and be proud of it.
At the end of the day, Glenn found a way to push forward. From delivering passengers and cargo to delivering food to hungry individuals, this young man is indeed an inspiration for us to always make progress and to not to be taken down by any challenge.
"I would like to express my earnest appreciation to my tito Wilfredo Canua Jr and Dr. Lysander Ragodon; owners of Mesa UP Town Katipunan branch for trusting me on this job. It is a pleasure at this point to express my gratitude wholeheartedly to my family; Where would I be without them? I am ever indebted to them always. And lastly, I’am extremely thankful to God for loving me unconditionally," shares Glenn.
