Serenity


"Breathing in, I see myself as still waters. Breathing out, I reflect things as they are." 


Have you ever caught something that happened to you didn’t go your way, where things didn't go as planned, upset you for some reason, or being bipolar?

Whenever your mind is busy there is one reason for it. You’re not living in the moment and accepting reality as it is. When I'm upset about something. I'll try to change it by either thinking about it over and over again hoping to make it better, or I’ll try to push it out of my minds by thinking or doing something else. I don’t want to feel it, it sucks.

Everyone seeks peace and harmony, because these are what we lack in our lives. From time to time we all experience suffering(don't you feel it?). We all experience pain and sorrow. Usually ,I try to quiet the mind and stop reacting. Spend time doing something I love. Such as a hobby, reading, listening your favorite music, etc. Or, spend quiet time alone, to relax my body and mind, even only for a few minutes and I know, I can't afford more :P


Sadness may frequent our life often or visit your weeks sometimes, either way a quick exit from these over stressful times is needed. Just think of living up to the fullest extent this very minute. Don’t hold a grudge, have no regrets, because you only have one life to live.

Validation

Hey, it's May. Sorry, for my lack of blogging. Anyway, today is Saturday. Just another lazy Saturday morning. So, I'm browsing through YouTube. And found something interesting.

YouTube video Validation by Hugh Newman. It tells the story of a man who works by validating parking tickets. He gives new meaning to the word validation, actually, he gives true meaning to that word.

Sometimes, we're discover something that people do see, but maybe, we're probably too shy to speak up. Afraid that our act might be rejected. Or that they might get laughed at. What happens when you try to make people smile, but you can’t? You keep on trying?

Don't you realize, make people smile is priceless. Just to know that you’ve brighten someones day, it's amazing.

Feeling down? Need a validation, maybe? Go watch the video. It’s worth it. Then go out and make someone smile. Doing this can make a big difference in other peoples lives. ;D
