Astrology

I would just like to advertise? haha! and share, how I find Astrology so interesting and kind of "true."

For example, I am a Libra, and Astrology describes Librans as.... blah blah blah blah.... you could research it yourself, if you want to.

Research yours and see if it is close to your personality.

Further more research also the astrology of your Birthdate. i.e. July 23 or July 23, 1989 if asked to be exact.

In addition, for those who have love interests, you could search for your Astrological Compatibility by pairing your Zodiac Signs, and if asked to be exact, pair your birthdates.

I found most of them are mind-blowingly accurate. It sooo arrgggghhh!! Ugh.
I found them enlightening, educational, inspirational, and thought-provoking.
I have learned things about myself that is laid in a beautiful, organized, well constructed and well conceived paragraph of words of my personality.

Go! I recommend you to see yours! I will say though that despite how most of them are encouraging and inspiring, some can be disheartening and irritating as well --for who want to know their not so endearing qualities.

It can be educational, for now you know your bad qualities and can try and learn to minimize them, change them, or eliminate them.



Good luck! :D

Gratitude

I would like to take time to thank the people whom accepted me and help me in all things possible..... Without you I am not where I am today. Thanks for the patience, thank you for trusting me, even though I am a stranger in your world. You know who you are... thank you one way or another I would pay it forward to you and to others. I love you in a very very thankful way.

Purpose In Life

Me and my friend discussed this over coffee one day, and it made me think over what is our purpose in life? There are different goals for each one of us, some changing as time goes by, or as each goal is reached.

What I think overall the general purpose of life is to live each day like it is the end... to live a good life with purpose and meaning. To be good... live the best, better than yesterday. 

I don't want to sound religious but, I think we are meant to live a life to proclaim the goodness of it. All of us as good. And this is a good life. And this is a good world.

Thank You. *Now waives like a Beauty Queen*

But seriously! :)

More Than Just A Happy Ending

What happened to Cinderella and the Prince after they got married? Did they really live happily ever after? Were they always happy? I guess they quarreled and had questions and insecurities in their relationship and life. They might even have contemplated on getting a divorce. Probably Cinderella’s stepfamily still kept bothering them.

What I am saying is life continues. It does not stop for nobody. Life does not stop at any point in time, happy or sad. It has its ups and downs, and this keeps on repeatedly and indefinitely as life continues.

One point: Murphy’s Law

Like what I have just said, life has their ups and downs. That is always one thing you can count on. I advice you to always prepare for the worst; don’t take life for granted because you never know what will happen next.

Another thing: What I always remember theology taught me is to see the world differently, not just spirituality, and that evil exist not to make people suffer, or label people or things as bad. Evil exists because good exists. Good exists because evil exist. In other words there is no good without evil and evil without good. Without evil, good cannot exist. Without evil there is no good. I know I am going in circles and redundant. But I just want you to grasp the idea that there is evil in the world so one could realize, see, and know good. One would differentiate good from evil; create good to overcome the undesirable, do good rather than bad. Now do you catch my drift?

So: Despite Murphy’s Law, there is always a silver lining –a rainbow after the rain, a new day after the dawn, and a relief and happiness after the pain. We must remember not to linger on pain and sadness we feel in life, but look forward to and feel the pleasures that life offers.

“Happy Ever After” is just connotation that in life’s ups and downs Cinderella and her Prince, and WE, choose to see the brighter side, be positive, be grateful, and thrive in the hardships we encounter.

Gratitude

I am thankful for my family and relatives... they are my inspiration. They help me grow, be a better person, and learn and understand the world and humanity better.

The Point Between

I have this theory…

You know the point between sanity and insanity? It is imagination; it is creativity. Somebody probably already said this, by all means quote him or her, or otherwise please do quote me.

But anyway, now I am fully aware how artists go wild during moments of inspiration. The geniuses just want to capture it. They can easily be diagnosed with psychological disorder in these kinds of moments. The racy thoughts, the million ideas that come to their minds, words, words, words, not just words, paragraphs, metaphors, hyperbole, oxymorons, pictures, illustrations, images, images, ideas, ideas, ideas.

Now I fully understand why most artists are koo-koo up in their heads and are classified as unique, extraordinary, abnormal, or an acquired taste... They are the individuals who can dwell on this point, the point between sanity and insanity. And some of them use alcohol or narcotics just to release all inhibitions and visit this holy ground. Hopefully most do not. Some as you have or will observe are unique and strange in their ways. Let’s celebrate the difference among us. This makes the world go round. How seemingly our differences create everything around us. Each has a purpose and role in life. And these artists, these geniuses make the world a better place in one way or another.

Guiding Lost Stars

As I navigate in the conundrum of job-hunting, I’ve decided to volunteer to work in organizations that are in need of free assistance.  As I made choices in organizations to give my services, I realized the effects of volunteer work could be a key to self-discovery or to one’s self-finding journey. For example, the books that were read to the children that I was volunteering for made me thought about myself.

Almost everyone has a past, good or bad, exhilarating or boring. We all have one, agree? What do we do of this past? We either run away or we fight it, we forget and move on. Unfortunately, not everyone has a past that is not so good. Some has a past that is self-damaging. Some experience a life-changing event that snaps them out of reality, and totally lose their self-control, and self-awareness.

We have this kind of past. We may have experienced a life-changing event that is extremely confusing. We move away from that scene, and have decided to find ourselves and/or create new ones. Through the journey we realize that maybe some of us, as we grow older, we seem to forget living, and forget the reason for it. We seem to forget the lessons we learned from childhood days. Maybe it’s because as a child we were not that serious. We were longing with the idea of going out and play, getting money, getting affections from friends and family, and experiencing the lighter side of life.

We forget about living a life where you are at peace and about living harmoniously with the world and humanity.  We are so consumed with the rules of society, the influence of media, and the rules of being a grown up, that we forget the lessons of life as we go on. We forget the lessons of the play or movie we watched, or the lyrics of the good music we listened to. We are caught up with ourselves that the signs of life and how we deal with it are all around us.

As we fill up the Facebook page of quotations, and statement from important people, normal people, whomever… to even quoting our Facebook friend’s statuses just to feel better, to numb out the feelings, to grasp and understand human nature and life, we realize that seemingly we are all interconnected in one form or another as we have similar experiences. We are all lost stars shining to guide everyone in the dark. (I am kind of quoting the lyrics “Lost Stars” song from "Begin Again" movie: “Are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark.”)

It can be a long journey but as we leave our past behind, hold on and control the present, and work for a better future, we should realize that maybe this grasp of new life, we are not lost but found. The realization of letting go of our past so we can move forward is indeed tantamount to pursuing our plan and purpose in life.
