Take the Chance-Follow Your Heart

Recent study shows that: The heart grows weaker every time we do something opposite of what we feel.

-Reader’s Digest

I’ve read this quote from a friend of mine on her Facebook status message, and it struck me like a lightning volt! Why? There’s some things in my life which I’ve always wanted to do, or more like a dream, goal, destiny or whatever you call it, was somehow deprived from me and I know it makes my heart weaker every time I think about it.

Now what are “these” things I’m talking about?

There’s only a handful of it. First is my dream to be a successful (more…)

God Never Gives us More Than We can Handle

Crying

It’s been awhile since my last post eh? Yeah, 2008 for me is kinda sad. Too many ups and downs, well mostly downs, especially with my love life. Over the past months, I’ve been through a lot, I mean a lot. It even affected my work, my everyday routines, my hobbies, almost everything. Things have happened on my personal life, sad things, that I felt I can’t handle. I’ll admit that I’ve been depressed, bitter, angry and confused as to why those things have happened to me, my love life. But God has reminded me of one phrase that our pastor and my family has been saying, God never gives us more than we can handle.

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. -1 Corinthians 10:13 (New International Version)

I know these problems will come to pass with the help of God, there’s no one I can turn to but Him. Things have happened when me and my girlfriend broke up, things that we thought could make us better persons, make us grow, but I was confused as to why they happen, mostly sad things. I know God has a plan behind all this, as the Bible says, God causes all things to work together for good.

I’m still on track of my plans, I never lose hope that someday we would end up together again. But I feel it’s not yet time. Experiences in life makes us grow, make us more mature and there’s more things I know would make us more better persons. You’re probably confused to what I am saying, my mind is not that stable now-a-days. I just make diversions to not think of those problems always.

New year, new beginning. I have to make myself better first, I want to loose weight, so that might be the first thing I would do to make me a better person. I’m 24 yet I feel there’s so much to learn in life. I would like to thank all those people who are close to me for being part of my life, espeically Daisy for being there to listen to me when I’m down, I’ve never regreted I chose you to be my closest friend whom I can share my ups and downs, thank you fren.

Well, that’s all about my 2008 and I’m now embracing 2009 with wishes of more blessings, health and hapiness.

Sometimes you’ve got to go through the pain, to experience the joy.

I Feel Young, But I Realized I’m Not

1

Today, after work, me and my office mates had a small talk while walking to our respective homes. We somehow got to the “age” topic. We ask everyone’s ages and eventually talked about the age of our boss’ boss. I never did expect that we’re just on the same age. He looks really mature and I feel like I’m just 21 or something like that. It really opened my mind, thinking that I’m at this age now and I’m still thinking about enjoying like a teen and sort of things, instead of thinking something more serious, like putting up some business, applying for a better job with a better pay that I can settle with, you know, thinking “matured”.

What I realized was, I’m not young anymore. I should think more mature now. And it made me think that it’s because I never have achieved any goals or anything that would make me feel more mature in life. I’m the youngest of the family, and I think you know what treatment the youngest has. Do not do this, do not do that. You’re not allowed with this, not allowed with that. I mean, those kinds of treatment made me feel like I’m behind of things. Never had explored things that a teenager should experience. Not to mention I graduated in college kinda late. No, I’m not thinking about rebelling. Why should I do that? I’m mature now right? Hehe. And besides, high school fun is kinda way too late for me. ;-)

Well, I’m not mad at my parents. Actually I’m happy I have parents and brothers and sister like them. They really took very good care with me, and I’m thankful to God for that. Now that I have graduated in college and I do have work now, I should explore things now (maturely) and with that, hopefully will make me more mature mentally and spiritually. Not physically though, I don’t wanna look old. Hehe. How do you suggest on how to make me more mature? Mature and positive things okay? Heh, mature… :D
