Storm-1

One time or the other, we were able to experience a storm in our lives. Some of them are mild like a pinch in our skin while some are devastating that can bring the best and the worst in us. And most of the time, these storms will test our faith.



Faith will be the only thing we can cling on especially when all of our hopes are fading and when we are stripped of everything that we have. Faith will be the only thing that will keep us going. Trying to live each moment will be a test of faith.



Living each moment could be torment to our soul when the pains and sufferings seem eternal. Your heart could wail its loudest but the sound could be a deafening silence. Families and friends, even strangers, may comfort you but no amount of comfort can ever pacify your misery.

Trying Times-1

I had my own share of trying times. And the funny thing about this is caughting you off guard when your world seems in perfect harmony. You just can't imagine the agony, as if all of them are in a hurried downpour at the same time.


It's hard to be in a situation where you feel like all alone, stripped of any kind of hope or consolation. Each passing moment is a never ending torture. The pain and anguish is tormenting your very soul. And no amount of comforting words from friends could ever appease your heart in grief.



Your world is darkened. Your mind is clouded. Your faith will be tested. And you've got nowhere to run. Suddenly, it's a dead end. What now?

Two Kinds of People-3

It is really not that hard for us to see the true colors of the people around us. You simply need to be observant. Challenges and time are essential factors in order for us to eventually rediscover the very nature of the people who surround us.


And what should we do the moment they show their real skins? Just like in politics, keep close those who appreciates you but keep even closer those who are concerned about you. That is again, if you have the stomach. It is often difficult to learn the art of embracing people whom you are not comfortable with. That's why showbiz and politics are closely knitted.


As for me, I simply keep my distance. If the situation calls for a truce, I'll simply deal with them in a civil way. It would be great if we can only choose those who appreciates us and keep away from those who are concerned about us. But one way or the other, it makes life more exciting. After all, we also play these roles.

Getaway-3

Having a better perspective helps us to see clearer especially ourselves. Given the every day pressures that we experience, a worthy getaway is always a welcome opportunity for tuning oneself. When our mind is not clouded, only then we can better define our senses and our actions.


Since we are part of a particular group of people, we cannot avoid some indifferences amongst us. And when the pressure is way above our heads, that's the time when things turn ugly. And we don't want to involve ourselves into issues and actions that are worthless. As much as possible we need to preserve the norms in order for us to be at peace with one another and with ourselves.



And when you are given that opportunity to have the much needed break, grab it. Plunge into action. Seize the moment and enjoy. Leave your worries behind. Envigorate your spirit and your wellness. See the other perspective of life and be thankful. After all, it is your life that you are living and you have every reason for a worthy and happy existence.
