GET INSPIRED: Love yourself.

"You are amazing,

just the way you are."

  ***

  Ever heard of Bruno Mars' song, "Just the way you are"? Feels better to hear it from someone you love right? But I think, it would be way better if you would hear it from your own.

  Yes. John Donne was right. No man really is an island. We need our friends, our family and our significant other. However, that doesn't mean that we really need them to find our happiness. I'm not saying that you should go away, isolate yourself and live your life alone miserably forever. What I'm saying is that sometimes, all it takes to be happy and contented is yourself.

  Not at all times, we are in good terms with our friends, our significant other and even our family. Sometimes, we got frustrated, irritated or angry. Sometimes, there's misunderstanding. Sometimes, there's expectations and mostly, there's failure to meet your expectations. 

  When we love, most of the time, we give out our best, give out our efforts and give out even our own precious time. And mostly, we don't need anything in return but a sight of appreciation. And by doing so, we almost forgot our own self. 

  What's worse is when you don't get any in return, not even a smell of gratification.

  Fella, if you're feeling any of those, why not take a break? Relax and review every good deed you've done to others. You don't need to get angry nor feel bad to that person. What you need to do is pamper yourself and that don't need to cost anything but a time on your own.

  Take a look at the mirror and you'll see someone who could love you more than anyone else. YES, IT IS YOU! Look at how amazing you are. Look at how good you are. Look at how God created you so great, you might even feel that there's no need for pain nor regret. 

  You are unique and productive. Live out as if you're not dependent on anyone to be happy. Life's too short to get caught up in a bad situation. Enjoy life! Enjoy your own self. Remember that there is always MORE to life. 

 Be your own inspiration. Be your own motivator. Be your own happiness. Love yourself! :)

Roses are red

Violets are blue

I don't have to wait for valentine

Especially now that I found you

You have made me felt

Like a brand new person

I've never been this happy

And you gave me the reason

You made me realize

That love truly exist

I've always been cautious with it

But its only you that I can't resist

You're the only one

And there will be no other

My heart belongs only to you

Forever and ever

I'll always stay true

And that's a pact

Ill do anything

Just to work things out

But most of all I'll never get tired thanking God

For having you in my life

And I'll never stop praying for Him

To make me your wife

CHICKEN SOUP: GOLD-MEDAL WINNER

  The story is all about Rick and Matthew. Rick is a gold-medalist winner of lifting weight while Matt is an ordinary boy born with an illness called muscular dystrophy, a hereditary muscle diseases that weakens the muscles that move the human body.


 However, growing up with this illness did not let Matt stopped from hoping and dreaming. He didn't cared about how his classmates made fun of him because of his condition. All he cared about is  his hopes for the future, and how one day he would lift weights with Rick.


 When Rick was asked by the principal to pay a visit to him, Matt did not waste his time telling him about this. He even told Rick that someday, when he gets to Olympics, he too, will get a medal and showed it to him.


 Unfortunately, Matt did not made it. Below was the letter that Matt had written to Rick.

 INDEED! MATT'S A CHAMPION! He may have all the reason to stop dreaming, believing, yet he didn't. He is an example of a true fighter. He should be an inspiration to all especially to those who are down, to those who have thought of giving up. Life's not a piece of cake. Struggles come and most of the time, we think that it's not fair.


 But we should remember, as long as we're living, there's hope! There's our Lord God who is with us all the way!


 Continue dreaming and believing and do your best to achieve it. Turn this dream into reality and let no one sop you from doing this. As long as you know you're not stepping nor hurting anyone, go and live your dream!

The dream that woke me up

  The scene was jumping, like that of a movie. I was spreading garlic and salt all over the floor, believing there’s a supernatural creature moving around our place. Then, all of a sudden, I was with my mom and sister. They were both sleeping, but my sister was making an annoying noise. I woke her up, but she didn’t respond to my call. She was moving wildly and screaming, yet she’s still sleeping. I believe she’s having nightmares. I was shouting her name, telling her to wake up but she didn’t. She turned out cold and pale.

 Then everyone was crying, shouting her name. We saw her soul, walking towards us. And then I grabbed her (soul), brought her outside, and tried to revive her with an unprofessionally done CPR. Good heavens! I heard her breathing, her fingers moved as well. Water came out from her mouth and she’s back to life! I hugged her, and thank God she’s alive.

  You may not be getting what I’m trying to tell, but what I have here is a dream. A really bad dream that woke me up bursting into tears. It felt so real that I was literally crying and telling our good Lord to not take my family away from me. Not now, not ever. Yes, it really is a selfish wish since no one could really go against God’s will. He could take anyone he can, when his/ her time is over.  And all that we can do is mourn, reminisce and wish that departed loved-ones of ours were once here with us.

 We say death is really inevitable. No one knows when our time will come. So, if we still have our time to live and be with our family, friends and special someone, take all the time to be with them, make them happy and tell all the things that we could only say through text, emails or worst, our minds only. There’s nothing wrong with telling your mom or dad about how much you love them, nor to your sister about how much you care about them. But if you can’t be with them, a text or call won’t hurt, right?

 After all, we all know how much life is short and that there’s always a way on how we can show our love and care for everyone. Why not grab this opportunity to hug, kiss, hang out and make our family and friends happy.

 This morning was both sad and wonderful at the same time. I just had a dream that woke me up not only physically but as well as mentally and emotionally. It made me realize a lot of things such as the importance of my family. I felt really bad about that dream but, I was thankful at the same time. I really thought a loving sister had passed away. Good thing, it was only just a dream.
