5/23/06 THE ALCHEMIST ENCOUNTER (THE ALCHEMIST BY PAOLO COELHO)
Now, i know why a lot of people loved this book. I'm probably one of the last few who just happened to read it recently. Good timing. Just when I needed to find hope. I'm putting some words and phrases that got me through a difficult month. i want to remember and believe in it always without any inch of doubt...
DREAMS, OMENS and where does God lead me? I've got to waken up my senses so i wouldn't miss a thing. Inspite of the failures, I know where He leads me. In my heart, i know...
WHEN YOU WANT SOMETHING ALL THE UNIVERSE CONSPIRES IN HELPING YOU ACHIEVE IT...everything including the disappointments...the part where enough happiness is given to encourage you to go on... the part that tests your spirit...the way that molds you to realize your personal legend...this book was an omen. it came just when i needed it most.
PERSONAL LEGEND...that was a nice way to put it...one that makes a person unique...the path we are made to discover...only those who become friends with their doubting hearts can realize this...I'm still arguing with mine. One day my heart will give in and i can trust it...
MY PURPOSE...shouldn't be any different than yours...there's only ONE purpose for each of us.
...i know my purpose...i have yet to experience my personal legend...
28 aprile REMINDER #1 & 2
I don’t think I’d like to forget this day. I’m writing this down because I tend to forget certain things that happen in my life. Sometimes even the hurtful events from which I learned something from… but I’d like myself to take note of this day that I knew would come. As you know I’m a jobless, penniless pathetic, dependent 27 year old. Being penniless, a lot of people can malalign your character. Most can say whatever they want without considering the feelings you can have. In this world where money rules I am at the pit. I have to take everything thrown at me since I am forever at the receiving end. I knew this day would come when I’d be reminded that I can not contribute over something and that I’m slapped with the idea that I don’t have the money so I better hold whatever feelings I have… There are times when the day is right and no conflicts arise that things seem to appear ok. But the real feelings and subconscious can sometimes come out when someone is angry and can just say what he wants, no love to consider, without thoughts of how hurt some people will get..
REMINDER #1---At this time when there is so much anger I’d like to remind myself that I have to make something on my own.
I never want to be slapped with the idea that I’m worthless without money. Coz I’m not. If ever I don’t, it’s not because I have no means. I am working on those means but it will take sometime before I reap the fruits of hard labor. By then no one can ever look down on me. This is also to remind me that once I have the means I should NEVER EVER recount the hard times I went through just to get it. Sometimes people think they have the right to think they are more superior than others because they suffered more. I don’t think I’d like to be that way. I’d rather that when the Lord grants me success He will also grant me with humility and more respect for others. Hopefully my wants for success would not just cover a stable and honest career but would also include a close simple family, a good personal relationship with God no matter how many repeated mistakes I make.
But what is the root of this all? Is all just money? Or Is it because I’d have to be constantly reassured since I have so many insecurities? Tsk…tsk…tsk… this INSECURITY thing can really eat you up! I really have to work hard against this…
No one wins in an argument. Everybody has a point and it’s just so hard to see it when you are all angry. It takes awhile to see the other side of the coin when feelings have the upperhand. So I better relax, and take it easy, try to clear my mind and breathe deeply to unload all this negative vibes in me! (HA! I’m even coaching myself now to look for inner peace!....creeeeeeeeeepy……)
Shoot! I’m such an emotional draaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag! This is getting to be a routine… this up again, down again cycle….I’m going nuts! Bipolar in particular! But who the hell in this world has the perfect balance of those hormonal shit anyway! It kind of reminded me of yesterday’s entry by the only visitor I have on this site. She says everyone in the world is crazy. I agree. Sorry folks, you might reading this blog created somebody who probably is.
REMINDER #2---Gawd! I have to get a life. A well rounded kind! One that doesn't just involve studying and having a boyfriend!
I am not growing…Everybody is and I’m still stuck with the only two subjects I allow myself to get heavily involved with. No on e is threatened with my presence…or even without it…I don’t make an impact on anybody’s life…I’m not sure if I’m making one even in my boyfriend’s…His will go on even without me, I suppose, since He always finds something worthy to do. As for me, what is out there for me? I’m not sporty, I’m not really outdoorsy, I’m content sitting at home with a good book or the most outdoorsy I can be is to have the time to stroll and laze around the beach ( which I barely have the chance to do!STRICT DAD wringing my neck!)
I’m reconsidering the things I did and if I have been doing things right….. is this too much self reflection? 26 aprile So how do i start????....after months of isolation, here i am allowing myself the time to finally start this blog thing going...
i had the pleasure of reading 2 spaces which happened to be quite popular ones here in msn and their sites have inspired me to start my own...mainly coz i wanted to see how others would react to things i'd write about in the future...
my first entry comes from one of the comments i made to a friend of mine from high school who is in new york right now and was kind of going through limbo thoughts like mine as of the moment...
hope you'll read this with an open mind...but any comment would be constructively taken....
AT 27 IN PREMATURE MIDLIFE CRISIS can't help but have the early midlife crisis... must be hormonal... consider this...at 27, no job, no bank account, not paying any taxes (since i can't take on a job right now), still on allowance, can't do what i want, can't date the person i want to be with (actually i can...i just have to endure those dagger looks from my dad when i get back home from one), still having a strict dad who doesn't allow you to go out more than two days in a row, having a curfew, A TOTAL DEPENDENT!, still trying to study more to get myself to where?... having those 2 letters added at the end of my name isn't all that glamorous... was hoping that after i pass the boards i'd get to buy my own freedom atlast...hell no..... that earned me another ticket to be more dependent on my parents...need their help to get me through the life i think i want to live... that's the point...is that really the life i want to live?...how can i find myself without any direction at all at this age... no one can really understand the state i'm into unless you grew up in a typical family coming from somewhere here in the pacific. A family that nurtures dependence, fear from growing out of your own shell, a family that let's pursuing what you really want to do in life seem like a ridiculous idea... times are hard and you've got to prepare yourself for it...now isn't the time to get what you want. practicality takes over your spirit... for now, what i want is demoted down from the priority list. but it's there...it always tries to make its way on top...it nags me all the time. but I’ve got to get a hold of myself... it's not yet time... patience...just hope it doesn't get tired of nagging me... don't want to kill my spirit from putting my wants aside too long...don't want to end up being the cold-hearted practical bitch one sees in those self-obsessed money oriented fools... it's sad... the idea of not knowing where to go after trying to pursue something you've always thought you wanted. but i can't give myself more than a few minutes of sulking...got to study again...got to live by the dependent daughter's rules...got to learn to live one day at a time... GOT TO EARN MY CHANCE TO HAVE THAT FREEDOM... |
