Take Time to Realize

People do mistakes, and I think it's natural. I mean no one is perfect right. Everyone do make mistakes, whether it is intended or just an accident. But when can a person really knows that he/she have made a mistake? When does one can realized that he/she have done something wrong.

Sometimes those mistakes can be figured out easily depending on the type of person he/she is. If a person knows himself/herself very well and knows how to accepts failures then he/she definitely can figure it out easily. But if he/she is too proud of himself/herself, then he/she will find it hard to pin point his/her mistakes, and to accept it.

Some though takes time too long before realizing it. And of course its consequence would be, it'll be too late to correct it. You may correct it but the consequence is still there. If you have done something wrong, you cannot easily notice it, but the people surrounds you can. If you feel you did something wrong, ask the people around you. They may have their own opinions, but you are the only person who can decide to follow them or follow what you want.

It may really take time before you can realize something but remember to not keep it too long, or it might be too late. There are consequences that sometimes we cannot take. And before we knew it, we get to focus of that consequences that sometimes we forgot to stand up and strive hard again.

I'm With You

As time goes by, some of as will definitely change.
No matter how hard we try, changing is one of the things we can't control.
There are lot of times I have said that things does really change,
but our emotions don't.
I'm still me, even if you don't see it.
And I can still say that "I'm With You"
through all the things that will went through.

I maybe with a world that you hardly know and you can't relate with,
but I'm still me.
There are people surrounds me that you may not like
but I like them and their company,
you may not believed but I think you have in common
because I have liken them they I have with you.

In your troubled days I want to be there
but you didn't let me.
You may think I have ignored us, but I didn't.
I want to speak it out,
but I guess there things that are better to be left unsaid
rather than being speak out and misinterpreted.

It may be late but I'm still going to say,
that I'm With You, all through out.

Keep Working

I was always being told by my own mother that if ever I get to be in a situation wherein I want to give up on something because of the obstacles I have encountered in reaching my goals, the last thing that I should do is to STOP. I guess she may be right.

Doing something to get the things what we have always hoped for doesn't come very easy. Never ever put in your mind that things could be as easy as a cake. I'm not saying to look on the negative side of it, of how hard it could be but to see the fact that things can't be always as easy as what you want. Never expect it to be easy cause if you then you will easily give up because your expectations didn't really happen.

Sometimes when I want to get something, I will try to think that those things will be hard to get but worth to have. By that thought, I can strive hard in order for me to get what I want. Though sometimes it may seem that those things that what we want, when we already have it, the thought comes in mind that getting it wasn't that hard at all. We'll of course, because what we have expected didn't happen.

So when we want something, never expect it to be easy nor very hard. Just expect that there will come obstacle that you will have to face. But just keep on working. After all, it'll be worth it.

Lover vs. Friend

Have you ever been in a situation where in your friends don't like your Lover? I may not have been, but I have been in a situation where in I am the Friend who don't like my Friend's Lover. And I did experience many odd situations that sometimes I think I should not be accompanying my Friend anymore.

There are certain reasons why I don't like him for my friend. Simply because I love my friend and I value her as one of my Family. In short, I don't want her to get hurt. She may not see how special she is as a person and doesn't see he's not worth it for him to have her.

But how does it feel to be in the situation where in you are in between in a fight of your Friend and Lover? Of course, it would be very disappointing. Your friends are indeed very dear to your heart, but, your Lover is still very special to you also. Which one would you choose?

I have been in the Friend's situation, actually twice. And I can say that they have chosen their Lover rather than their Friends. I have enough reasons or I can say WE have enough reasons why we don't like their Lovers.But I guess Love is indeed Love. Not even Friends can make it stop. Cause when you are in love, you are blinded by your deep emotions and imaginations. Anyone who wants you to see the reality seems to be your enemies, even if you knew they loved you.

Based from my experiences, I think I should rather listen to my friends.They can see the real thing. They can see the real person if he/she is really true to you. For one simple reason, they are not in love with your Lover, and they cannot be blinded by their emotions nor imaginations. They can really see the whole real situation.

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Yes, Christmas is fast approaching. In fact, most of the establishments,houses, and etc. here in Philippines are full with Christmas Decorations.Some of them started to decorate when the month ends with “ber”, yes,the month of September.

Christmas celebrations here in Philippines usually have the longest celebration. Maybe because most of the citizens here are Catholic. And these Catholics have these so much faith in their Religion. We even do have what we called Nine Mornings. A mass done in dawn for nine days.

This event for some, is the most important thing to be held every year.This is the time when families gathered from all provinces to celebrate together Christmas. There were also some Filipinos working abroad or what we called OFW's comes home to Philippines just to celebrate Christmas with their loved ones. A time where in some people forgets and forgives the people that have hurt them in past. Maybe because of the Joyous Spirit that is everywhere that makes them want to forgive those people and start allover again.

Christmas is also a time of Giving. People who have something, tries to give to those people who don't have anything. Those fortunate people gives to those who were less fortunate. The Christmas Spirit seems to have a magic. A magic which makes people good and vanishes their Greediness.

But this Christmas event is usually the most Happiest event for the children. Some may quote, Christmas is for the Children. And I may agree with that. I can still remember how excited I was when the month of December is coming. Counting my gifts from my different Aunts and Uncles,and also from my Ninongs (Godfather) and Ninangs (Godmother). I even remembered the time I wish everyday was Christmas.

Christmas is really a big celebration. But we must not forget the essence of celebrating it. Why do we have to celebrate? How do we celebrate. For sure we have different answers, but most of them have only one meaning. And for me is to celebrate the Birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. To give happiness to everyone. Advance Merry Christmas to everyone.
