Life is too short to be…


The events of the past week made me reflect on how I am living my life. How I make decisions and just life in general.

It made me realize that life is too short to be angry all the time, to have baggage’s, to worry all the time, and later on have regrets.

I was such a worrywart about work and career, I was whining (yah, I admit that) about how it sucks but I never really have been doing my part. It was all about how this job is not for me and how it’s not really a real job, when in fact I should be thankful I have a job when there are thousands who are job less and would are looking for one as I whine. I still think I could do better, and find a more suitable work for me, but I guess I still have time to find another one in due time.

I was so worried about the future that I forget about living. Living for each day that it comes. I forgot about enjoying.

Jeline’s text was timely because it says:

A interview with God:

Man: What surprises you most about humankind?
God: That they get bored with childhood, they rush to grow up and then long to be children again… That they lose their health to make money, and then lose their money to restore their health… That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present such that they live in either the present or the future… That they live as if they never die and thou they had never lived.

I’ve been praying for answers and now I know why and I understand. That’s what my dad has been telling me…Live by the day. Because you cannot redo the past, you only live once and you don’t know what will happen next. So for the next few days I must remember what I wrote here and try to relax and enjoy the ride.

Peace!

so there i was in glorietta, alone



I woke up and wanted to window shop, midday I asked if anyone would like to join me but everyone else is busy, and so I went on with my plans. That’s one thing I know I’ve doing for God knows how long. I enjoy doing so because I don’t have to worry about someone getting bored or that I’m taking too much time on one shop, just the thought of someone is waiting for you makes that hobby of mine shameful, unless that person is very willing. It really relieves stress and takes your mind off certain things until the mall hours are over.

Good find

I couldn’t believe I forgot that it’s the time of the year when National Bookstore has it bookworms’ sale! It was on that same sale, 2 years ago that I was able to buy Bergdorf Blondes and Gossip Girl at 20% off, not to mention it earned me points. Finally, I got myself a copy of the Alchemist and although I’m not done yet, it really is a good one. I remember a girl from a bookstore in Oakland upon seeing me with the book she immediately said, “You should get that, it changed my life”.

So to all book lovers, the sale is up to September 17!

Sole Searching

I’m actually sole searching. I’m looking for an affordable black pumps. I found the style I like the problem is I couldn’t afford them, and even if I could I wouldn’t spend that much for a shoe. And there’s this one the right style and reasonably priced but they don’t have my size.

S.O.S.

don't ask

Panalangin ko sa habang buhay
Makapiling ka
Makasama ka
Yan ang panalangin ko
At hindi papayag ang pusong ito
Mawala ka sa 'king piling
Mahal ko iyong dinggin
Wala nang iba pang mas mahalaga
Sa tamis na dulot ng pag-ibig natin dal'wa
At sana nama'y makikinig ka
Kapag aking sabihing minamahal kita
I found the song!
