Thank you for the lessons 2012!

"Matutong bumangon sa pagkabigo."

It's nice how a children tv show could tell me so much - straight to the point.

I remembered watching Wansapanatym when I was a kid and it's nice to know that ABS-CBN has managed to keep the show running.

The episode I watched last Saturday was about a lady who got stuck in the past and was blaming the past for everything she was not in the present.

To cut it short, it is simply saying that there are things in life that must happen in the past (even bad) because it is directly relative to the future; and we should not interfere.  Because you know why? It always has a better reason behind it.  As for the present, we should embrace it and learn to be happy and grateful... always.

It is hard, I should know; but I think that's the only path to go - to be happy and master to be happy no matter what.  Many people will hurt us, leave us, sabotage us, break our trust or our hearts, make us cry, make us feel unworthy, etc. but we must learn to get up and fight these negative vibes in our lives.

What's worse than being sad is being sad while being in a sad situation. We should fight for our joy. Because if we don't, nobody will.

This is going to be my last post for 2012.  I'm making peace with my past (Thank you for the lessons 2012!) and I'm heading towards a beautiful 2013.

Year-end

Today was tiring but fun. We attended a mass then we had lunch and then shop for some essentials in Megamall (we enjoyed MNG and Promod's Sale!) then we went in Marikina to visit our father and lastly, we still went to Eastwood to... just go there and eat at Bigoli and visit the bazaar.


School Supplies Shopping

I have been shopping for school supplies since last week and I would say that I missed this.  I'm really enjoying this back to school thing. ^_^*

These are not yet complete, I still need the set of rulers - L-square and Hip curve. I was told to visit Divisoria to look for alternatives. I still can't grasp the thought that these rulers cost P3000! I must definitely look for a more affordable brand.

Christmas with family

Here are few of the pictures from today's Christmas celebration. Too bad I wasn't able to take pictures of everyone who came. Our relatives from both sides (mother's and father's) went to visit and celebrate with us, even neighbors and family friends. It was a wonderful day. :)

Again, Merry Christmas everyone.

Christmas Mass 122412

At St, Pio Chapel in Libis

Random things before Christmas

My all time favorite burger. *yum*
We got a box of Fortune Cookies from our neighbor. :D
My first fortune cookie from the box. I think that's "deed" not "need".
Felicity Gift Shoppe. Sooooooooo cute! :D
I bought myself this. :)
My favorite part of this special event, gift giving! :D

To impress or to influence?

I read something tonight that I had almost forgotten. It was from my journal from The Purpose Driven Life. It said, "At some point in your life, you must decide whether to impress people or influence people (Chapter 35)."

I think, between the two, the difference lies on "why" you do something? Do you do it to be applauded?  Or, do you do it to help other people -with our without applause?

Which do you like better?
