A Blessing this Holy Week


For the past few months, I had been experiencing some pain in my stomach. My initial conclusion is that i have an ulcer because there are times when i wasn't able to eat on time. The pain came and it stays for hours,  medicines used for hyper acidity and the likes has no effect...which left me with no other alternative but to consult a doctor.

The pain that hit me was not that strong, but it was constant. Like a toothache, you know that it will hurt until you do something about it. So i went to the doctor at around 10:30pm and since the lab is closed for the day, she asked me to go back tomorrow to do an ultrasound (of course, she gave me some meds).

Morning came and i found out that i had gallstones, the specialist took my results and told me "straight out" that i need a surgery. My mind understood what he said but my Internal "consciousness" was asking the questions "What the F...?"

Oh well, so like i said it was a blessing because i finally understood the real reason why the medicines for the stomach doesn't work (well duh..). So what do i Do? personally, even though this is the first time that i heard about my gallbladder, i feel that i can't part with it. Yes, surgery is not an option at this time and i am looking for other alternatives.

I do believe that even though some people say that the gallbladder is not an important organ, i know that it was placed there for a reason so for now it is going to stay. I will test some things first and if things go out of hand, then only THEN...will i part with it.

At least i know now the real reason behind the pain in my stomach, now i know what needs to be done to relieve the pain that I feel whenever i get a gallbladder attack.

Anyways, Happy Easter everyone and until next time...

The Irony of it All


February has come to an end, far too short compared to the other months in the calendar. However, as this month ends...another chapter in my life will close. I've never felt too sure about myself before, but now things are different. Why? Because I had changed a lot, i experienced a lot, I learned a LOT.

Finally i can see it, something that I had never seen before now appears before me crystal clear. I know that as long as i keep on getting better, as long as i continue to move forward and as long as i continue to change...then i will see things that i had never seen before. I will taste things that i only imagined and i will bask in the happiness and satisfaction that I so rightfully deserve.

My post for this month will be short, but then again...things are fine that way.

I wish that all of you, will find the things that you are looking for...
I pray that you will find happiness in everything that you see...
and may all your dreams and aspirations become your realities.

Till next time...

Breaking Walls and Moving Forward



February has been a very challenging month for me. I had experienced a lot through this past few days and it changed my perception and my beliefs about certain things. The funny thing is, i already know what those things are. The problem? I Just know them, I DON'T DO THEM.

Some People, see this world in Black and White. Other's have shades of Grays. Fortunately there are those who see them with all the colors of the rainbows. One of the things that i learned is that, you have to accept Criticism. There are times when you fail to see the things when you DO THEM. The people that notice them are those that surround us everyday.

Yeah, We often say that We don't give a damn on what other people are saying about us. However, it would be wise to filter some of those "Criticisms" because you can use it to improve yourself. Improve how? Change the things that you think is worth changing. Criticisms can be a good thing too, if you don't place it on your heart. Place it on your mind first and analyze it.

If you think that their words hold some value, you can change yourself for the better. If not, you can simply ignore them. Now, my resolve is set....and i will not take NO for an answer. I am going to take Inspired Action in order to accomplish the things that I need to accomplish.

Here are a few things that I need to look out for when I buy something for myself.

The "All of you Will LOVE Me" Shirt
"This Life is Awesome" Glasses
Nike Shoes "Just Do It"
Sure Deal Pen "You can close any deals with this Pen"
Irresistible Jeans "Yeah, You Just Can't Resist"

I guess if I complete this set, Life would be a Whole Lot Easier....Don't you Agree?

Be Safe Everyone and till next time....

Creating My DreamBoard


The New Year has long passed and this is my very first post for the year 2013. I am very thankful that i was able to experience a new beginning in my Life and I know that this year is going to be my Year. The valuable lessons that i had learned from the previous years and the things that I am currently learning now, will help me achieve my Goals in Life.

My Dreams and MY Selfish Dreams will come true without a doubt. I am sure that it will happen and there is nothing that can stop it from happening. This year, i want to visit Japan and have a feel on what it's like to be there.

Seriously, it is not easy to change the things that you had gotten used to. The routines that i had been doing in the past, I need to correct some of them to "align" myself with the Laws of the Universe. Well, to some it may sound vague...but to those who understand the meaning behind the "Laws of Attraction" and the other laws of the universe will be able to relate to the things that I am currently doing right now.

This Year, I will Practice the art of GIVING.
This is not something that I often do, and in truth it makes me feel excited (weird eh?). Nevertheless, if this will lead me to the path of happiness, to the path of greatness and to the path of success...then let it be so.

I Pray that all of you will find happiness and blessings as the days go by.

Till next time...

Walk for a Cause


This past few days has been spent on eating (since it was christmas) and walking with my team on different locations. It was fun and tiring at the same time, it has been a while since i walked for 4-5 hours straight and i was surprised to find my legs aching when i got back home.

Things seems to be looking great as the year ends and yes, It didn't end last Friday (yeah~ you know right? wenk wenk). So anyways, I am listing my new years resolution for the next year and I plan to go back to the basics of learning japanese. Yeah~ I think i forgot some of the characters for Hiragana and Katakana because this and that happened.

Fortunately, I made it a point to take 100% responsibility for my life and i plan on attracting happiness today, tomorrow and the whole year round. When things go bad as it usually does, I just tend to close my eyes for a few seconds and think of happy thoughts. That is all and i feel that things are working out the way it should be. The EFT is also helping me a lot and my sleeping cycle is getting better and better.

I do wish that the day will come when i can "automatically" sleep like i used to, but still i am thankful for what i have right now. Let me greet you all a belated Merry Christmas and Advance Happy New Year.

I wish that you will experience all the happiness this world has to offer.

Till next time....

A Post to Think Back


Well...where should i start? I had been sick for two weeks and i Finally found the reason why.
All these past symptoms all these past aches and probably my insomnia is all linked to this particular illness. It's not easy but I am bombarding myself with medicines everyday to combat this disease.

The good thing is that I now know what is really causing all these symptoms in my body. Also, it will take a long time to permanently cure it, however it's all good. As long as I keep taking the meds, i know that I'll get better eventually.

My problem now is my appetite. I seem to have lost it...I eat whenever my stomach aches. Even if it does, the sense of being "hungry" was lost to me. It's probably because of the medicine or it's probably because of my state of mind. Still chomping down at food without enjoying it is a little hmmm...WEIRD?

I love to eat, i eat every now and then but even now...while eating my favorite foods i don't find any satisfaction. No appetite, no nothing. Sure the taste is there, but aside from that things have changed. After my fever has subsided my sense of taste has been off. Anyways, I'm positive that things will eventually return to normal after a few days.

December...doesn't make me feel excited for a reason. This year, it seems to me that I still don't feel that "Christmas Spirit" thing that i always feel whenever this season comes. Probably because of the things that I've been thinking (and doing) as of late.

Still, I am still in pursuit of my happiness and I know that this happiness....will lead the way to Greatness.

Till next time...

Dizzying Website Creation via Wordpress

Ok...first and foremost, I am not an expert when it comes to Wordpress. However, after a few hours of tinkering i finally managed to understand how the said platform work. It's been a while since i opened multiple browsers to check the tutorials on how to get a widget, how to install a widget and how to use one.

I feel like a total noob (well i am one technically), still it was a funny yet dizzying experience. I am now experiencing mixed emotions on the way i handle things. I feel excited, i feel anxiety, I feel happy, I feel sad. It may sound weird but sometimes, i do grow when this emotions come to pass. I know that I am being honest with myself and with other people whenever the opportunity comes. It's just that, you can't please everybody and there is nothing you can do when it comes to things that go beyond  your control

This day has been a little adventurous on my part and i learned some important lessons as well. I am now outside my comfort zone and although the environment is sometimes hostile, sometimes thrilling, things will start to go my way (soon enough).

Well, my new motto in life is "Let your Happiness Lead the Way to Greatness!"
Yes, i will practice to be happy everyday and perhaps i will be able to share that happiness to other people as well.

Till next time....
