Post number 2

Ang saya dito mag post, kasi walang nagbabasa. hahaha. hmm. Today, I just feel so depressed, since the people I love keeps growing apart from me. All of them doesn't even seem to care. And she told me that I shouldn't think that way because she cares, and that she loves me. But then I thought to myself, she loves everybody! And she loves them more than she does me. I know it's not right to be jealous, nor is it right to compare friendship or love with anyone, but it just feels terrible to feel all that and have nothing to say about it. I don't know why I'm saying this here. I just hope that no one would read this, as the other blogs. I say I love you as sincere as possible and you don't even react. It's as if it doesn't matter anymore. I can't blame you because of what I did. I can't blame anyone for their reactions because of who I am. I don't know why. I don't know what's the matter with me anymore. amp.

Hi Again [Diary post number 1]

This isn't a normal blog entry or anything. I just like to have a diary post chuchu (as stated in the title)

I just want to express how I feel right now. I feel so blessed, so loved and I feel superb. Starting from the word of God I received today up to the compassionate people around me. "Hahahaha! Yang bespren ko talaga ohh...Cge lang.,gusto nia lang mkasama ka. :) kahit wlang gnagawa." was the words I got from Ate Christel upon telling her that I'm so bored doing nothing in the house of Nay June. It was so touching that I would really want to believe it. And I did. Happiness is a choice, they say. But you would never really understand what that means unless you really make that choice. I chose to be happy, and I am. Even if I know that I have a lot of work to do, a lot of things to study, a lot of catching up to do. To you, you'll know who you are. Thank you for loving me, as a friend, as a disciple, as a person, as Louise. Thank you for being there, even if not always. Thank you for proving me wrong. Thank you for the time, and te pain you endured just for me to learn my lesson. I love you.

Mediocrity: What can be done?

No one is perfect, as they say. We are expected to be mediocre in something, but not everything. Unfortunately, in the Philippines, people do not pay much attention on doing great things. We were supposed to be bad in a few things, mediocre in some, great in others, excellent in more. We were supposed to do stuff other people have never imagined doing. We, in our daily lives, must do whatever task assigned to us with great passion and love. Excellence does not mean doing the job or work perfectly thus doing it with all your best. And this best isn’t just the one time big time “best”, this is the best that is worked for, the kind of “best” that is trained for. You don’t expect Manny Pacquiao to fight the day after you tell him you want to have a fight with him. He will train for months; he will train strictly and intensely. This is what I call doing your best. The reason why Manny Pacquiao chooses to do his best may be because he just likes boxing or because he is thinking of his pride, or whatever reason. Well, we can’t force everyone to love what they are doing simply because we want them to do their job well. But we can make them do their job while having fun. In this way, they will be doing it without the laziness attitude. Before I continue to discuss what to do, I want to explain first why this is such a problem. For some people, their job seems to be unimportant, like being a security guard in a bookstore as if someone is going to steal a thousand worth of books, like cleaning a public restroom as if it is even possible to really clean it, like being one of the many bank tellers we have today as if there were no ATMs. But then everything is made for a purpose. Perhaps they started recruiting security guards in bookstores in case someone might ask a question if they are lost or in case some suspicious looking person goes in and plants a bomb inside the store. They probably hired someone to clean up the mess in a public restroom because it had been so dirty that no person would go inside and stay for more than five seconds. And obviously, tellers were there for the people who want to open an account, to ask questions, to do some business stuff that computers would not understand. Just think, if the three people in these jobs fail to do it, then there could be a lot of people killed or hurt, there could be a public place left unused, there could be tons of people who don’t want to open an account just because of not knowing anything. Now that’s everything’s clear, I would hand out the solution I have in mind. The solution for mediocrity is as simple as enjoying, enjoying what we have and let others enjoy theirs too. Influential people would most likely influence other people in doing such.

The Comeback

Not that my previews blog were great, well, they aren't, but here I am again making another one. It's just that my previous blogs were in multiply and not here. So yeah, I guess I really haven't posted much in this site. :) I have been doing a lot of things lately, seeing to it that I have time for everything I want to do, not knowing that I also want to write. So here I am now, writing. :)

It is not everyday that one would feel terrible about doing one mistake in his life. Well, everybody makes mistakes, it's just how we handle it. It's just how we learn, if we really learn at all. Unfortunately, only a few people understands that. And I pity those who don't. There are people who don't want to have even a little bit of flaw in their works, but look where they are now, they are not the most famous ones, not the most successful ones and definitely not the happiest ones. There's nothing bad in wanting to achieve perfection, but one would just want to give out all their best
and be ready for whatever might happen.

I do have some things to finish tonight, but I still had time to make this blog (it is roughly finished, I know. I'll find time to finish it soon). Cheers!
