For the not-so-nice people around you...

It would be very nice if all people are nice, loving people. Unfortunately, they are not.

There are many people who are in great deal of pain, and on certain days these people will, consciously or unconsciously, inflict their pain on you. People will speak ill of you for no good reason. People will return your good deeds with unkind, unloving words and deeds. People will lie to you and betray your confidence.

The human tendency is to offer insult for insult, hurt for hurt, ill deed for ill deed. The spiritual imperative is to offer love for insult, love for hurt, love to everyone regardless of the ill they may offer you. The human perspective is to hate those who hate you, take to those who have taken from you, harm those who have harmed you.

If you should encounter any angry words or unkind actions on this day… take a deep breath, reach deep within yourself, and greet the lack of love with love. You may have responded to human unkindness with human unkindness.

Be devoted to greeting everything and everyone with the gentle kindness of love!

Windangertz???

Can you possibly think of me being too stressed not to notice I'm wearing two different slippers? I mean, seriously. You know how OC-OC I am before I go out to the public. There are times I'd rather not put any make-up on my face and not comb my hair, but to have worn a different pair of slippers is worst!


Ganyan na ba talaga kadami ang iniisip ko???


So here's what happened... I stayed at my parent's house last weekend. So since I didn't have much shoes left there... I just wore my two different colored slippers and went to Trinoma with my friends! Just like that! I really didn't care at all! My friends were all laughing at me.

Maybe I'm just like that sometimes. I don't care. But you know what? It felt good to have done that. But yeah, it was funny.

On things you can't live without!

Anything you need, must have or can't do without has the power to control you and your life! In other words, you are a slave of sorts. We are not talking about food or clothing here. We are talking about anything and anyone, from your mother to your job, that you feel you must have, must help, or you cannot walk away from for one reason or another. From people to pets, shoes to butter on both sides of your bread. If God didn't put it in you, but you believe you can't live without it, you are in a lot of trouble.

You may not have been aware of all the things and people you hold on to in response to FEAR. Accept that you are afraid to let go! make a list of all the things you believe you NEED. Identify all the excuses you give yourself for holding on. Then, mentally and emotionally... let go.
