Dear Sir Stranger ,
I was sitting at the food court today while thinking of what to do. While in deep thinking, I suddenly noticed you. You seem to have just finished lunch. A man in his late sixties, maybe. You are wearing that blue striped polo shirt with ragged jeans. You are wearing that gray cap, but I still can see your grayish hair. Continue reading
I have a few encounters with some people who have this kind of attitude. It is quite impressive but sometimes it’s kinda irritating too. It seems like they have all the answers to my questions and they even debate with one another whether which facts is true or which one is not? I was like “Don’t I have any questions which can’t be answered by them?” Continue reading
FEBRUARY 4, 2012 (FROM http://www.inboxjournal.com/publicjournal.php )
I am not in the mood to write, I even feel like not doing anything today. But I have to keep myself busy,well, that’s my plan so that I won’t be drowned with my own emotions. I have to block all the negative feelings, I have to go away with my own hassles in life. I have to do this or else everyday will be a trouble day for me and I won’t let that happen, I wont let my emotions eat me and corrupt all the positive vibes that Ill be having all through out the day.
Life is full of twists and turns isn’t it.? Life doesnt provide us with everyday happiness, sometimes there are things that were meant to happen to teach us lessons. Lessons through experiences, and those lessons will always be our guide to do the right thing the next time we are faced into a similar situation. Dramas are the best ingredients to human life. It brings us the different kind of taste, something unexplainable but worth it. You might never understand what I am blogging here, Am I making a sense to you either? (lol) Actually I dont know..
People are unpredictable, am I right? Some might be good and some might be evil in nature. How far should we trust people? Lets say someone stranger offers you a helping hand, would you trust him that he wont let you fall and he wont let you down when rough times come? How easy do you trust people? Does it depends on the number of years knowing each other? If yes, then why do other people end up pulling each others feet down after being best of friends for six years in time? Why do lovers break up and obliterate each other trust after spending years and years od being together? And why other people can trust someone whom they only knew and met in a minutes time but yet they click together like forever????? Why? Can somebody explain why people had this kind of erratic ATTITUDE towards trust?
IF Love is patient, love is kind. IF It does not envy, it does not boast, IF it is not proud, IF It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, IF it is not easily angered, IF it keeps no record of wrongs, IF Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. IF It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres, WHO WILL LOVE US THE WAY LOVE WAS DEFINED ABOVE? Yes try to tell me, only God can, and I will understand. What I am seeking and asking here is can’t us people love the same way like god is loving us? Cant we be patient, be kind, be not envious, be not boastful, be not rude, be not proud, be not self seeking, be not angered. Cant we people keep no records of wrong but learned to be forgiving? Cant we rejoice in God hand and right truth. Cant we protect, TRUST, HOPE and persevere to achieved the meaning of LOVE, TO OUR PARENTS, TO OUR FAMILY, FRIENDS,LOVE ONES AND TO THOSE STRANGERS WHO MIGHT BE IN NEED AND WHO NEED TO FEEL THE TRUE MEANING OF LOVE?
I guess the circumstances that I am facing right now is an indication, a wke up call for me, to know and to seek for the true meaning of love, not only as a lover of a single soul but a lover for all mankind. I guess writing this one is done with a purpose, I am encouraging you not to focus loving a sigle soul alone, but let us love ourself too and others. Love is not only felt when we are into a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, Love is not only felt when we are with our friends, with our family, Love is felt when like God, we love all the people around us. It’s a great feeling and its a great Lesson I have learnt.
If I have one greatest lesson learn in life, it is the thought that most people often remember the mistakes we commit and often forget our good deeds.
It is a fact I guess, a part of human nature which we can never erased, It is not just my mere observation but a reality of human attitude that we can never deny. You try to do good, few will take notice of it, You try to do wrong, everybody will go insane making their point count of what you did. People will scrutinized you even though you are at the point of regret, even though you are sorry of what happen, even if you already dropped your flag down declaring that they already won and you lose. They will still keep on bringing your past mistake relating to the other mistake you have done. It is like a scar, yes, a scar. A scar which is a product of a wound. Wound hurts but it mends, and when it mends it leaves a mark which we can never erase, a scar. And as long as the scar is there, it will always reminds us of the pain caused by the wound.
Talking bout scar, humans are fond of taking noticed of other scars. When they see one from you, they would say, “Oh what happen to that scar?”, though some asked about it out of concern they still remind us of the pain we got out of that scar. What’s bad is that when we answered them that we somehow learn from having that scar, they will just smile but instantly forget what we said yet they will never fail to forget that we bare that scar.
We can also relate it to a simple situation at home or in our everyday living. When at home for example, you rised up early in the morning, cook for everybody’s breakfast but because you didn’t know much about cooking, the sunny-side-up turned sunny-side-down, the fried rice turned salty, all resulting to everybody’s dismay. Instead of appreciating your effort, they would even blame you and say “you shouldn’t have cook if you dont know how to”. The same goes when your at work. It was just like yesterday when you are floating on a cloud nine for a job well done but just because you made a terrible mistake today, your good job yesterday was disregarded. Just because of a single mistake.
It is human nature, but is it a valid excuse? Or is it a human attitude that most people refuses to believe in?What people usually see are the negative sides of one another, thus the positive sides are taken forgranted.
No wonder, the word “Chance” was included in the human dictionary, the purpose is to remind us people that it is not wrong if we give another try after a mistake. We all have our chance to move on and pursue. To prove ourself and others that we can also be right, we can also do good even after a failure, that it will be unfair for us ìf we will be judged based on the past mistakes that we have done.
Let me just end this post with a simple message for my Dear readers.
We all commit mistake and it doesnt matter if it is a small or big mistakes, what matters is when we get up from our mistakes with lessons learned. One more thing, learn to focus on noticing other’s good deeds rather than delving on their mistakes, it can make a big change. See how you can transform the world by appreciating and thanking somebody with his or her simple act of kindness. Learn to give chances.
Remember,
Wound heals.
Though scars maybe visible it will not be enough to measure how much we learned from the way we are wounded.
