Rekindle (Part 2)

Pardon my absence but I will honestly admit that I lose my interest in blogging; mainly for 1 reason only. That is PROCRASTINATION.

 

I feel that since WP is now blocked in our new office, I have no way to blog again whenever I’m free of things to do and check it as much as I like to if ever I wanted something to be posted. Having said that, I know that even though the site is already blocked, I can still do it at home or even in my phone. And that is when I found out that my main reason why I lose my interest in writing my thoughts is procrastination.

 

And because of what happened recently in my life that resulted to significantly change me as a person, I decided to open my word app and start writing again. I realized that writing my thoughts helps me go back to certain events that happened to me and see what I have gained in terms of lessons and wisdom. It also helps me to recall the things I shouldn’t have done in a particular situation. It gives me a chance to go back a day, a week, or even a moment in my life to look back and what I can do better next time if ever I will be in the same situation again. Comparing the time when I was still writing and stopped writing, I felt that I was more disciplined person back then; when I was still writing than I am now (when I stopped).

 

So, having this realization urge to write and post something again. I guess the purpose of writing a blog for me is not more on sharing my thoughts over the internet and let the world of strangers see it but specifically helping me to define what type of person I am and what type of person I want to be.

 

I never really owned an actual diary before. Even the idea of having a diary as a guy somehow gives me an icky feeling of being gay (no offense). But this site, my blog, somehow gives me that purpose of having my thoughts and experiences saved or captured that it will give me a chance to look back and enjoy. I guess this might also gives you an impression of how deep person I am rather than the usual dose of my fond to humor; but don’t be misled by this post because I know to myself that I am also a shallow guy with simple pleasures in life.

 

This is it for now.

Oh Cupid! Why so stupid?!

I had a time today to clean and arrange my bookshelves, while cleaning I got curious in one of the books I bought that I never had a chance to read. So, I paused for a moment and started reading some pages of this book. The book is all about LOVE. Yes, and because its February, I think there is no other time to post something about it but this month. And, let me just forewarn you that this post is not about the love that will focus on happy endings or not even the part where it will give you butterflies in stomach. Instead, it’s the other way around. This post is merely my 2 cents or somehow observations about some famous love stories we ever heard, read, seen or known. All these stories about love ended in one bitter word – TRAGEDY!

Yes, I’ve stated that right. You see, we have different perspectives or thoughts about these famous love stories and yet we only see or accepted the good part of the stories which was how someone can show love on his/her greatest extent  and not the mere fact that all these stories ended in tragedy and pure disappointment.

As I progress on what I’m talking about, we all know that these lovers did anything they could possibly do just to show how they really loved each other. Regardless what universe threw at them, all the circumstances and catastrophe –  they were really committed and have done everything to show their affection and fought against all odds just to be together. But, these lovers are known for being Star-Crossed Lovers. And due to these outsides and uncontrollable forces, they, as “true lovers” cannot be together peacefully which by the way already tragic but also the fact that they cannot enjoy the  moment of being in love (while still breathing)  openly, no-hassle and not dying at young age.

Just to give you some popular love stories that changed our idea of how far love can really go, here are some popular stories and characters that synonymous to it…

1. ROMEO and JULIET (Shakespeare) 

2. TRISTAN and ISOLDE (Legend)

3. JACK and ROSE (Titanic)

4. HERO and LEANDER (Greek Mythology)

5. JAMIE and LANDON (A Walk to Remember)

6. PARIS and HELEN (Trojan War)

7. ENNIS and JACK (Brokeback Mountain…This is so gay!)

8. ME and THIS LADY

We all know that all these famous stories except the last one (I shared my part. Lol) ended up in a very tragic way. These stories influence people all around the world not to mention in different time period of showing how you can show love even to the extent that dying and not-physically being together will show the true meaning of it. And, just so you know and in my personal opinion. THIS IS JUST FREAKING UNACCEPTABLE in ending a good love affair.

LOL! Well, I might be bitter for talking about this and don’t get me wrong, I’m still a guy who apparently still do believe in LOVE and loving someone even giving your own life just to show/prove it. Well, blame the book and my initiative of cleaning my apartment as for this post will not be posted after all. LOL

Hmmm and on the other note, have you ever wonder what if these stories will just have different endings? Or, maybe, Cupid was somehow drunk or playing around when trying to make these people head over heels to each other that he thought it will be more fun to have a tragic ending and make things more complicated to be together for these lovers (you know, just for difference). Oh! You silly Cupid!

Anyways, just something to post for this month and forgive me for being bitter with a twist of humor (I guess) on these post. Above all, I just want to say that love is in the air and STAY IN LOVE! ;)

Guys on Break Time…

During a quick break with my fellow male colleagues, we had a very funny conversation with quite serious topics. We talked about finances, acquiring a house and getting married.

And we could all agree that those I mentioned are pretty serious stuffs about one person’s life. Those things require careful planning and decision making. But, you see, in spite of the gravity of the subjects which should be taken seriously; keep in mind that we are just couple of guys having a break and enjoying our free time at work. So, what do you expect? Of course, these will never be taken seriously when guys talk about these during break time. Lol (Well, at least most of the time)

 

Wedding

Colleague 1: Are you planning to get married this year or next year?

Colleague 2: Who? Me? Lol. Yeah, next year is the ultimatum. We decided to get the house first and postpone the wedding for this year. The house is quite expensive if we still wait till next year. So, it needs to be prioritized. Although, getting married nowadays is too expensive as well! She even told me that getting married is easy and go get the house first.

Colleague 3: Dude, just go the local municipal office and get married there…won’t cause you anything.

*Everyone laughed*

Me: You know what? Get her pregnant and let’s see if she will still ask for a fancy wedding. (I know sometimes I’m douched bag! Lol)

Colleague 2: That would work! Lol

*Everyone laughed*

 

Buying a House

Colleague 1: Hey, can you show me or send me the link of the house you planned to buy?

Colleague 2: Come here! I’ll show you.

(He just meant one person but everyone went straight to his station including yours truly. After showing the house, everyone goes back to our respective stations and started browsing the internet for properties/houses.)

Colleague 1: Hey, you should buy a house now since you are still young and you don’t have a lot of responsibilities yet. Prices will go up eventually.

Me: Sure! Lemme check it! (Super excited and overwhelmed)

And then, I saw this…

1.9 Million! 2 Million! 2.5 Million! 3.3 Million! 4 Million! 5 Million!

Me: Well, let’s buy tomorrow. I’ll take 5 houses! Will that be enough?! Lol (At least, Window Shopping is free).

*Everybody laughed…and started crying (For obvious reason, PRICE!)*

I know that I will share the same faith eventually. But, for now, I tried to humor myself seeing these prices. So ladies, you still think its easy to be a man?! Lol

Anyways, that’s it for now.

Enjoy life!

What An Amazing Feeling!

You can call me shallow for what I have posted today. But seriously, I couldn’t care less if say that (Lol). I wanted to share something that made me felt really (3x) good last week and late last week. These two things were guaranteed will be part of my memory for the rest of my life. I might not sure about the first one for how long but the second one will be definitely engraved in my heart.

~ FIRST ~

First, as you know, I am playing for volleyball team in our company’s sport fest. Last week, we had a very exciting and breath-taking match. We played with another team that has never been beaten and for sure will go and compete to finals. It was us who will need to prove that we can get the spot and grab the championship and if we lost this game, we are just playing for 3rd place. So, as the game started we lost the first set (maybe because I was not playing…yet ;P). And then, going on the 2nd set, I was asked to go in and play. And boy! I really said to myself that we need to win this match in order to get to finals. I tried my best to save the ball even though it was already expected to be a point for the other team. I slide, dive and even a motivator just to make sure that we can win.
And let me tell you that, the game was so intense! We took and won the 2nd set like a landslide 25 -10. That was the score (Ehem). Evidently, people were cheering and since we won the second set, all the crowd started to be excited, they started to shout, cheer, jump and doing some sort of crazy stuffs because of excitement on the game. I felt good because someone even called me “Lucky Charm”. Lol

How cool is that? To be called like that? Believe me; it felt really good.

During the first half of the 3rd set, unfortunately the other team was leading by 4 points and expectedly decided to take our time out to assess the game and boost our confidence. After the time out, there you go! We started to closed the gap and lead the score by one. As steady as possible, the last serve was from our team. And I couldn’t imagine more what my teammate felt when he was serving the game point. With a little luck, the serve got in and made the game point.

WE @#!$%^& WON THE GAME!

“The crowd goes loud” – as what they say. Everyone was jumping, shouting, clapping and smiling. We freaking won the game and head to finals with a team that we thought we could never beat. I know! You call me shallow, but I jumped and shout my heart out that we won that game. If I could share what I really felt to you I will. In a grand scale, it was really freaking AMAZING!

I watched every one of them, they look very happy, they hugged each other and I just looked and observed them. For some reason, it gave me the visual representation of what it looks like to be freaking happy. Anyways, that’s the end of the first one.

~ SECOND ~

Now, here is the 2nd one, the first one gave me an amazing feeling about a certain moment. But this one gave me a moment that I will enjoy recalling every day in my entire existence. A kid named with my most favorite name in the world and I guess the most beautiful name I could ever imagine given to anyone, gave me a personalized card.

Awwww, I know! How sweet was that?

Anyways, this post is obviously quite getting long now and I’m starting to get lazy typing. So, I’m just going to make a short story on how I received the card or what happened. Here’s what happened…Enjoy!

. . .

Once a upon a time in a far far away land, a small princess named with the most beautiful name that can be given to anyone – Chloe, got mad at her painter because she thought the painter did not do a very good job painting her portrait. So, the princess started to get really disappointed and mad. And because of her anger, she said a lot of things, bad things and started to cry.

Even though the painter heard all what the princess have had said, he remains understandable (Lol) and tried everything to please her princess but despite all the efforts, the princess still felt hurt, disappointed and sad. The painter started to get worried and sad as well, he kept doing things to please her princess which did not change anything and ironically got the princess even more angry.

And, because of the important task assigned to the painter, the painter needs to leave. The princess started to get lonely knowing that her painter will leave and might not be coming back. The princess, started to miss her painter and felt bad for saying all of the bad things because of her angst.

And then, the painter came back to the palace. Upon arriving, the painter received a very special gift from the princess. It was a beautiful card that the princess made only for him. The painter, did not understand any word written on it but he knew it was for saying I’m sorry and saying that the princess loves her. The painter saw the princess the same day and with a sweet and magical moment…

The princess hugged and kissed her painter.

And they lived happily ever after.

. . .

I hope you like the short story. (Lol) I wanted to go on details but its quite long. So, just bare with it and my story telling skills because that’s what I all I have (Lol). Anyways, the point of my story was…I received a personalized card from a kid; I was hugged and kissed by a very sweet kid. Couldn’t get any better eh?. Lol

P.S.

I wish I could show you the card given to me but unfortunately the scanner is still not working. I could share what was written and a little description on what it looks like though. So, here…(word-for-word)

A little description of the card: She drew my face (What should I expect?She’s still a kid. Lol), She drew some butterflies, she put some ribbons, hearts and some stuffs I could not really figure out. (Lol)

Daer:TiToJoben

im’sorry to i do toyouokay’
im’sorry agaigtoisayyou’?

Daer, TiToJoben___________________
I love you, TiTo Joben
and im|sorry
TiToJoben im sosorry?

Anyways, just want to share some simple pleasures of life that we tend to ignore (for some, I guess)

Have a great day and enjoy life!

Recovery Mode (Break Up Songs)

I’m supposed to write a very long post about what I felt and still feel in my recent heart ache and what current state I’m in. But, what the heck, songs will be enough for make me to feel better and share what story that has to be told. So, instead of reading all the details of what happened to me and realization of my so-called love/stupidity; here are some songs in my playlist that I think pretty much convey the thoughts and messages running in my head that I wanted to share.

Also, I personally think that I will be immature to vent out my feelings about love and write it all here in full details. World will never stop because of my heart ache. And call me bitter, but I just think that people have bigger problems compared to my “love” issues; which really works for me (I’m sorry but it made me feel better just thinking that way). So, enough said and in case you will also be down in this road…just listen to the tunes and try to sink all the lyrics in of each songs and believe me, there is a big chance that it will make you feel a little better. Lol

 

Some of you might not like these songs but these belong to my Top 10 songs of making me feel better after the heartache.

 

1) Bon Iver – Can’t Make You feel My Love Me

2) James Morrison – The Pieces Don’t Fit Anymore

3) Maroon 5 – Better That We Break

4) Josh Kelley – Unfair

5) Colby Colliat – I Won’t

6) Gavin DeGraw – Cheated On Me

7) Ne-Yo – Go On Girl

8) Cee Lo – Fuck You

9) Maroon 5 – Makes Me Wonder

10) John Legend – Used To Love You

 

And finally, just to iterate, I don’t really hate (just a bit) the person that pushed me to do this. As a matter of fact, I believe I still somehow care and love her; it just so happen that it was painful enough for me to decide that I have to write and document it for self-preservation’s purposes. Also, at the end of the day, we shared something special together and it will always be a part of me. My intention is very clear in my title…I just want to recover and this is somehow another way to do it.

 

And for you, if you ever have a chance see this post (I know you don’t)…All I want to say is…

You take care and have a happy life.

 

Always,

Insipid.

Who’s Driving?!

Last weekend, a very close friend of mine asked me to accompany and spend weekend together. I don’t have usually plans during weekends so I just agreed and decided to meet her. As usual, the plan is to meet around 1pm but the thing about her is that when she said 1pm she meant 12pm – an hour earlier than expected.

So, I’ve arrived 1pm and again she arrived earlier than expected which really nice and impressive of her. We had our lunch first before we figure out where to go and what to do. After our lunch we agreed to skip movie or spa. I suggested let’s try to visit the near by amusement park (Enchanted Kingdom) which quite far from where we were that time. And, we mutually decided to go and visit her sister in Rizal which is really farther compared to amusement park. That day, she brought a car, which I can’t drive because I have an expired license. So, I let her drive and here’s where the interesting part happened. I haven’t seen her drives an automatic car before. Or, better yet, I haven’t been with her driving in long distance driving. Yes! I was apprehensive but one impressive side was – I think she looks very hot or sexier seeing her drives a car. *wink*

 

Unfortunately, these are things I’ve noticed with her driving skills:

 

1. While leaving the parking lot and about to pay our parking fee to the parking lady, her window was like a meter away from the booth hence the lady needed to pull out half of her body from her booth just to reach the ticket and get the payment. Lol

2. Swerving! It was at stop sign and she discussed whether to take left or straight. She decided to turn left. We were in the second lane and while on green! Luckily, traffic officers were eating…I guess. Sigh.

3. While on the road, she decided she wants to eat order food at drive-thru . So, we saw McDonald’s and we decided to get in there. What happened was we passed few meters away from the entrance and end up reversing. Sigh.

4. Bumpy roads! I wanted to tell her the car is Sedan and a not Pick-Up truck. I just told look ahead and notice if there are bumps ahead. (We were laughing the whole time when I told her this – maybe because of the several bumps we experienced) Lol

5. Red light means S.T.O.P.! We were in some part of the city (Pasig City) where traffic rules are really strict. I know that everywhere has traffic rules but not everyone really abide them or into the extent of being strictly implemented. So, going back, I told her that it’s a STOP sign yet she still move forward and there! Just in the corner, a traffic enforcer. To make this part short, she was given a warning because of her ID. Perks of working there and sorry it’s too confidential to share. Tsk!

6. Intersections! Whenever we’re about to enter intersections it was like I’m being put in a situation where my whole body will be thrown off the cliff. It was crazy!

7. Promises! She always tells that she will not hurry anymore but we always end up hitting bumpy roads and probably tear and wear out her shock absorbers. Sigh.

8. Finally, just time to hit the gasoline station, just when about to park beside refilling station, we hit the gutter and thought we hit the side of car but the gasoline boy confirmed that it was just our tires which gave us both reliefs.

 
Okay, to finally answer the question in the title. Aside from being a very close friend, she happens to be my ex-girlfriend. How does it work between us? Still going out and considering so-called-best-friends? We also don’t know as well…but it works so I don’t need to explain anymore. As for my personal opinion about her driving skills, and maybe I was a bit exaggerating on my observations above or maybe I’m not. But, to be fair, she can drive from Point A to Point B and that I can give her.

Anyways, right after so-called road trip it gave me a funny thought that maybe, just maybe – she was trying to kill me. In addition, I don’t usually fasten my seat belt whenever I take the shotgun but after experiencing no. 2…I am very much convinced that I have to. Lol

All in all we really had a great time together, we were laughing the whole time, we had a relaxing moment when with her sister and sister’s husband. I also had a nice time playing with her three adorable nieces. As much as I wanted or we wanted to look us each other; I decided to look at the road while she drives.

BTW, just to let you know, I am still ALIVE;. This is not me being a ghost or fulfilling one of my last will. I wrote this post just to share because I think it was funny or fun and fortunately she will never know or see. Lol

I’ll try to post some more once my current dilemma at work has subsided. Unfortunately, I’m still preoccupied with these resignations and stuffs on-going. And, Yes! Don’t worry I’ll find time to renew my driver’s license so she don’t need to drive anymore. Sigh.
 
So, that’s if for now. Have a wonderful day and have a safe driving.

The (Freaking) Deal Breaker!

She is nice.
She is so nice; I have to say it twice.
She is beautiful.
She is very sweet.
She is very down to earth.
She has lovely eyes.
She has very kissable lips…evah!
She is a wonderful person.
And most of all…she’s already freaking…TAKEN!

 

Yes! Ladies and gentlemen, after all the wonderful and positive adjectives I’ve mentioned above, the last one really suck!

Has this ever happened to you? You are talking with a person that you are starting to like and somehow gave you the overwhelming feeling of hope to see your future; a future, where you picture yourself and this person you are talking with being together? Together, I meant as a couple or in a relationship. And along the conversation, you will find out that…that person is already freaking taken?

Well, I’m not sure about you but sadly this happened to me. I’ve been single for quite sometime now and frankly, I have no complains being in this status…yet (Lol). So, I believe that I am entitled to picture myself to be with someone I really like since technically I still don’t have someone who I say I’m committed with. Unfortunately though, the person that I think I was starting to like is already in a relationship. Taken by someone I don’t really care about. Although, I felt envious for this someone having the person I really like.

But, I guess that’s just a normal reaction.

 

So…anyways, instead of just being fully disappointed, frustrated and bitter, I just thought that it would be nice or funny to write something about the possible reaction(s) to this kind of situation. When you are talking to a person you are starting to like or probably already like and along the conversation she will throw what I call…the deal breaker.

 

***Disclaimer:

Assuming that both of you have been talking for quite sometime now and you’re starting to really like this person and along the conversation she throws in this deal breaker.

Also, these reactions are just purely for fun. So, don’t be offended. And in any instance that you wish to do these suggestions, please be in mind that I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE although I would love to hear the result(s). (Lol)

 

Scenario 1

You: It would be nice if you could join us this coming Saturday?

Her: Oh sure! I would really love to go. Can I bring my boyfriend with me?

(In his head, his real reaction)
You: @#$@@#$@#! We’ve been talking here for hours now and you are just saying that!

(Acceptable reaction)
You: Hmmm, not sure if that will be allowed but if it is…surely you can bring him with you. I guess, there’s nothing wrong about that.

 

Scenario 2

You: I used to work in that company.

Her: Really?! My boyfriend is working there. I hope you know him.

(In his head, his real reaction)
You: $#@$!@! Seriously?! 3 Days is not enough for you to tell me that you have a boyfriend? I’m now starting to like you and you are just saying that. Well, frankly, I don’t want to know anything about your boyfriend. As a matter of fact, I haven’t met him yet but I already know that I don’t like him. Because of him, all my possible hopes of my future with you is freaking thrown out the window.

(Acceptable reaction)
You: Oh! You’re boyfriend is still working there? What’s his name?

Her: Atty. Do Evil y Lucky Bastard. (Obviously, I just made this name up!)

(Acceptable reaction)
You: Ah! No. Don’t ring bell.

(Not-So-Acceptable reaction)
You: Oh! meeting. Sorry, have to go! Ciao!

 

Well, these are just 2 scenarios I could think of for now. I know these might not be true but since I thought about them; there’s a possibility right?! (Lol). And since, I was somehow disappointed I just thought why not write something funny and share it here.

So, going back to my question, has this ever happened to you?

Unexpected Pick-Up Line

Yesterday (Sunday), I went out to meet a friend of mine. And since I’m already in the mall I finally decided to go inside the bookstore to check some books which I find interesting to own. Normally, I don’t buy them in full price, I wait till the mall go on sale but since they are not on sale, and pretty much the books I want are just new releases, my chances are close to nil to get discounts.

Anyways, as I checked the shelves and having problem finding this list, I finally decided to go at customer service counter to ask some details about these books. And here things get, not sure how can I describe it but it was interesting, awkward, nice and funny or just simply awesome.

 
***The following conversations were translated in English…of course!

Me: Hi! Good afternoon! (I’m already smiling politely)

Anne: Good afternoon Sir. (Responded quite seriously)

Me: “I just wanted to ask if you have available Catching Fire by S. Collins which doesn’t require me to buy the whole series?”

Anne: “Sorry Sir but we already out-of-stock. You can only get them if you buy the whole series.”

 
***This is where I started asking a rhetorical question

Me: “Will it be possible if I just take and pay the second book from the bundle and just leave the remaining 2? (Of course, I meant this in a funny way)

***She is still serious in this part.

Anne: (Serious but politely responded) No, we can’t do that sir.

Me: “Sigh, OK. Hmmm, what about My Name Is Memory? I’m sorry I forgot the author’s name. Do you still have this available?”

Anne: “Let me check sir. Oh, you’re lucky; we still have this last copy. Here…”

 
***She handed the book and I started reading the back.

Me: “Ok miss, I’ll take this one and I wanted to ask if this is On-Sale? And, are you also giving discounts to new releases? And like, how much?”

Anne: “Usually, we do, but only on selected items only. The discounts vary from 10% to 20%.”

Me: “I have another question, do you have this book…ahhhmm, Probability of…being in LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT…ahmm, PROBABILITY OF LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT???…I am not sure about the title but it is something like that.”

 
**This changes everything…as in everything. Her seriousness, my politeness, my confidence, I felt more awkward but in a funny way.

Obviously, I was looking at her while saying these words and then I realized something. It made me think that saying these words probably give her the impression that I was doing my “pick-up line” on her. Why? Because she smiled after hearing the words (love at first sight) I’ve said especially the way I unintentionally delivered it.

Then, I paused, chuckled quickly and smiled at her and followed by a quick laugh which probably gave her the impression that I already realized what I did. Well, I really felt awkward and slightly felt embarrassed. So,here is my reaction:

Me: “Hahaha, that’s an awkward question but I’m just pertaining to the book. I don’t mean…” – followed by my silence and grin.

Anne: She smiled, chuckled and said “or second sight.”

Whoah! Did it work?! Lol

We laughed together after that and went straight to our first date…I mean business.

 

Remarks:

1. To be honest, she is really pretty.
2. Turns out, books titles can lead you in a good position or put in trouble. Lol
3. Finally, I really think starting to fall “in love”…with the books. Lol

 
Disclaimer:

I am not sure if I wrote this post properly. I mean, I know all my posts doesn’t have respect to proper grammar or tenses (Lol)…but I believe this one is the worst because I was multitasking while writing this. So, puh-lease, try to understand that I need to work while still trying to find sometime to entertain myself and of course you…my dearest “anticipated readers”! Lol

 
Enjoy life and have a great day.

Somehow I feel I need to say something about the word “Failure”.

We all know that this word really sucks and evidently we are all not exempted to that. Everyone will fail at something and at some point; even though they followed their perfect plans which personally I would say that there is no such thing as perfect. But, what’s interesting about failure is the aftermath.

Regardless of whether the failure is about careers, relationships, minor things, major things and so on – we will react because simply we are affected and sadly some of these will also affect people that surround us.

Personally, I would say…
 

“Failure is not important, but how to respond to that is really what matters.”

 
I will never say that we should not be careful or accept that we will fail but instead we should anticipate that everything is bound to happen not as always according to what we have expected or planned. Which sometimes being pessimist is necessary without removing the optimism in case that we went the other way around.

I always say this to my friends and some of the people who ask my opinion or help…
 

“Follow your guts in choosing what you think is right for you!”

 

You might be wondering why? Aside from the obvious very positive message, the objective of the message is to give them the hint (perhaps their answers) on what they think is right for them as well as giving them a way to weigh things over. Saying that somehow I believe I am giving them assurance that they can surpass whatever problem they have especially when somebody is confuse on what to do and making them think that whatever they choose, they can accept the aftermath of it. Because, choosing what we think is the RIGHT and RATIONAL for us entails the assurance that we will not have regrets regardless of the aftermath.

We will all have our down moments, so we can choose to be bitter or we can choose to be happy while of course working on how to turn things around.

So, my friend, “Cheer up! And be inspired!”

 

P.S.

I hope my post above did not confuse you. I know I talked a lot about cheering up but not being inspired…Well, the post goes for the inspiration.

My reason for this why I made this is simply because – If ever, somebody is really lonely or confused and apparently reading my posts…He/She will be a bit relieved after reading this.
 
 
As always, have a great day and Ho Ho Ho Ho seasons!
