..something to think about…
Thursday, May 17th, 2007For a long time, it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last, it dawned on me that this was my life. This perspective made me realize there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. — Alfred Souza (shared by Hazel Garcia)

Life can be so unfairt: cooking a meal takes an hour but eating it takes 10 minutes or less; constructing a building takes at least 6 months but blowing it up can take 30 seconds; earning at least 10000php could take 30 days, but paying the cashier at least 8000php worth for a mobile phone takes a second. However it is amazing that a second smack on the cheek can make your day; a 5-second glimpse of your love can make your week; a 10-second hug can take a year pain away and a simple prayer can make all things possible.

It is not easy to be far from home, to be far from people you love and care about. However, logic and maturity tell you that being far from these people (a) strengthen you to become a better and strong individual; (b) discerns your heart well and see how mature and stable your emotions for them; and (c) how stable their emotions and hearts are for you when your paths cross again ….

Life’s worst poverty is not in riches but in spirit…
….and the greatest wealth is not in money but in friends who stand by us no matter what…
….no matter what.. at times translated to impossible….

Trying to be positive about life —
…..Silence doesn’t always mean yes, it may also mean no but it’s better left unsaid.
…..Anger doesn’t always mean hatred, it could just be a means of coping up.
…..Laughter doesn’t always mean happiness, sometimes it is just a mask.
…..Tears don’t always mean sorrow, it may also be an outlet of joy.
…..Staying away doesn’t always mean it’s the end, it may also mean the best beginning.
……And life, though it’s so complex and full of mysteries, one could see it as something that is always beautiful..
