Taking Things In A Positive Light

Love and life coexist the way both my brain and heart have to function. It`s not even a question whether one matters most or not. Both are equally important. In life, looking at things in a positive perspective will greatly help in knowing what I truly aspire for.

Acceptance and forgiveness. They are just two words yet have deep meanings. These two are the most common things people tend to overlook. Acceptance of facts, happenings and people is not as easy as one may think. Accepting the unknown to our lives is like giving a step forward in the diving platform. At first try, it may be frightening, but once you have experienced the thrill and elation, you open yourself up for more. Forgiving is not just a part of one`s dramatic act. It`s actually a life-long process. Once a person forgives, there are more actions in the aftermath. It involves a more complex formula. Which is mystery. One has to continue his journey toward the future.

Optimism. Such a powerful character. Hope lingers above.

Good night!

A Cold Examination Week

This week is examination week for departmental subjects. I`m quite challenged but the determination I have isn`t enough. The weather has been cold lately and I really liked it.

On Thursday, I`ll have my examination in Mathematics. For now, I might label it as an easy subject but studying for the test is still necessary. I`m quite driven to study hard but the responsibilities and obligations I took are difficult to have. Sometimes I feel as if I`m secretly taking away someone else`s should-be priorities as my own. Because of one`s lack of responsible management, one has to put on heavier loads of problems. I didn`t have to suffer though, it starts with the mind.

It`s been very cold. It`s as if the air conditioner is always open wherever I go. The feeling is really nice though.

I`ve been producing inactive participation on important events lately. It`s time for another change. Right now.

A Day Outside The House

Today is a very exhausting day. I went to the National library and researched for my report. So far, so good. It`s better that I worked instead of procrastinated. This day seemed like a normal one.

Unfortunately, I didn`t have the opportunity to splurge my time in the library. Just searching for the books that I needed took so much time. Nevertheless, the library is extensive. I really liked it. They have a wide variety of books, newspapers, magazines and many more. They also have old and rare things. I was slightly unaware at first that the book that I was intending to borrow was more than 20 years old. I was fortunate enough to find and borrow the book. It was "Orosman at Zafira" of Balagtas (Francisco Baltazar). Earlier before I searched for this book, I searched for articles that was needed for my report. Slightly unaware again, I didn`t notice that the newspapers that was on my search list was over 25 years. Unfortunately, I was able to find only one article. Anyway, I honestly appreciated that the library kept the broadsheets, magazines and others that were published. I even saw a collection of magazines that were published in the 70`s. They had them arranged according to specific ranges of dates. The experience inside the library was thrilling.

I also acquired a small tripod for my camera so I can start filming videos for my new channel in Youtube. The sales lady called it the "Octopus" probably because it looked like it has three tentacles.  

When I was heading home, there were some people on the way that was out because of the smoke-like circled around the moon. It looked like as if the moon is perfectly in the middle of the circle. The circle around it also looked flawless in shape. (It can`t be seen on the picture above because it wasn`t as bright as the moon. The circles on the picture other than the moon is probably because of my camera.)

This was a normal day, but I`m grateful that I had it.

A Wonderful New Year

Hello readers,

Another year has passed, but the experiences we had will always be a part of us. Today is the mark of another year. As we go on in our daily lives, I hope that each and everyone of us will treasure each second that we receive. As they say, life is full of surprises. We are indefinitely aware with what future may bring us. The significant matter is cherishing every moment we have and every loved one we care for. Life is a mysterious book one can`t seem to conclude. Therefore, I hope and pray for everyone to have a simple and wonderful new year. I hope that you will find the true happiness in life.
