Travel Lightly...

Whenever we travel, we often worry about whether it will take us a long time to arrive at our destination. Sometimes we get there early, Sometimes we get there on time and sometimes we often get there late. When we arrive late, we usually have a reason why it happened. More often that not, our excuse are just Lies made  for our own convenience.

There are a lot of things that i need to change in my self and some of them are commitment, consistency and Mind Setting. Commitment to the things that i had promised others and promised to myself. It means that i need to DO IT regardless of the circumstances. Consistency is to be able to do it on a regular basis or to practice being committed to a cause or a person. and of course, last but not the least is Mind Setting.

The meaning is pretty simple but doing it is not that easy. Mind Setting is something that is practiced everyday, like my ways on how to get some sleep every night. Sometimes i win against insomnia, sometimes i don't. Before i knew it, the battle of Sleep Vs No Sleep has become a regular thing and a RATIO appeared.

The ratio meaning that I won't get any sleep for 2-4 consecutive days and by that time, i have to do something to knock myself to sleep. Another thing that i want to practice is the act of GIVING. I'm not really a person who gives to charity and I haven't thought about being one, until a few days ago. Change is certainly the only thing that is constant in this world and if i will change, i will do so for the better.

Also, being part of a team makes things easier. The sharing of ideas and opinions can help solve a problem in  just a matter of minutes and there can be more than one solution to a problem. My team is also preparing for an all out attack (so to speak) and i know, given enough time we will be able to win and conquer our dreams, aspirations and the goals that we had set for ourselves.

Have a Great Week Everyone and till then...

See you next month =)

Heart Connect!

Sometimes, the best way to wrap up the day is a heart to heart talk with people who are important to you. I'm sure that there will come a time, when all of us would want to open up to people... whom we think are important in our lives.

Frankly, it helps a LOT in lifting up those heavy shoulders that we had been carrying throughout the day. We feel lighter, we begin to smile more and we tend to see things in a different view. Even if our worlds are more on the shades of gray, a single ray of light can make a difference. That light may come from someone close to you who will help you overcome your fears, doubts and worries that are etched in your heart, your mind and your very soul.

I can't help but imagine holding someone tightly as if never wanting to let them go. Just to be near them, to snuggle beside them and just keep them in your embrace. I hope that those sweet and cuddly moments will come to me when i need it the most. I know that everytime the world throws out the worst on me, somewhere out there is laughing his/her hearts out. If you think about all the hardships that people need to undergo just to "Live" their lives, you can write it as a story. It may have a happy ending, it may have a sad ending...but then again, it is a story that is one of a kind. A story on whom we are the main actors and actresses. A story of love, hate and sadness all wrapped up in a delicate silk ribbon which is the very foundation of our journey in this world.

Hmmm.... as long as the world keeps on turning and my heart keeps on beating, it will be a rough ride.
And before the finish line arrives, i pray with all my might...that my dreams, aspirations and story will make a mark on this world. A mark that will forever distinguish me, from the many faces that surrounds me.

A Legacy that is left by "Your's Truly". Someday it will happen...i will make it happen.

Until  next time....

Storm after Storm

Yes, it has been a very stormy month. The rainy season has spawned storms after storms and there are times when the wind is strong enough, to blow your umbrella away from  your hand. Frankly, i like rain...but not when it becomes too strong or too often for comfort.

Well, i will admit that i did get some sleep because of the cold weather and for that I am thankful. Sadly, there are people who's homes are submerged under water due to the heavy floods that had hit us for these past few days. Its like Mother Nature's ways of reminding us that sometimes, if things look bad...it can get worse. It definitely did and people are hoping that the rains will ease up a little before this week is over.

As for me, I am happy that things are slowly but surely falling into place. Life is unpredictable, like the weather and you'll never know the kind of people that you will meet along the way. I lost people who i thought were close to me (and whom i thought were my friends) But, the funny thing is more people took their place. It's like...hey we have mo sits here! Anyone care to have one? Before i knew it, all the sits were taken up and life moves on as usual.

It's true that when a door closes, a new one takes it's place.
Good things fall apart, so that better things can fall together.

Be Safe everyone and till next time....
