our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.. our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.. it is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.. your playing small does not serve the world there is nothing enlighten about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.. we were all meant to shine as children do.. its not just in some of us its in everyone.. and as we let our own light shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.. as we are liberated from our own fear.. our presence automatically liberates others..

Life as we know it

There are times in our lives that we tend to look back on the things you have when you were younger.. The endless playing, eating and just minding your own business, going to school, meeting with your friends, talking and chatting all afternoon and all that.. When you grow up, you need to find a job, need to settle bills, pay the taxes, drink coffee, brainstorming with your boss and all... But have we ever thought that we need to do this for us to share it with our family in the future?

I have been trying to see things in a positive way ever since I have been working... If you see things optimistically, then you would be able to appreciate life... But what I have experienced these past few days is really very disturbing... I have been given a lot of trials and challenges in which I have to face them alone...

As i was thinking about these problems, I have seen a lot of unemployed people in front of their houses, laughing all their hearts out and just taking time to enjoy their life.. I wondered as to how they are able to survive without jobs, without money,,, And then it suddenly struck me... These people who are outside their houses sees life in a different perspective... They have been satisfied with what God gave them... How can I be so stupid thinking that God wants me to suffer... I have seen a lot of those people who don't have a house to live, food to eat or a bed to sleep in but they still manage to live life God gave them... I am so blessed that I have my friends, my family, my boyfriend and the things that makes me live each day.. How can you be so selfish with what you have and still want to have the things that you never need... How can someone be so self centered? And that made me realize that I am indeed a blessed woman...

Thinking about it, I have seen that life is fair, it is just the humans who make it unfair...
