Random thoughts and images


There are those moments when I want to write but idea seems to be elusive and when good things come to my mind I am about to sleep, and there are those times when I search for some things that I really need and couldn't to find it but when I don’t need it anymore it immediately showed up.   Those situations makes me realized that everything happens for a reason and things come in the right time.  I learned that when things went wrong all I need to do is be still and go on with the flow and trust God for he works his plan.  There was a time, way back then, when I was still studying, I got a failure examination in my statistics.  And I can’t believe on why it happens when I study a lot, pray to God and give my best. I cried the whole night because I can’t accept the truth and worry about my parent’s reactions when they found out, then on the following day my dean called me to come to his office, I felt depressed, but surprised when He told me that he make mistakes on checking my test paper and in fact I got a higher score and I was like wow! I waste my time crying when in fact I should be happy.

Well anyway, have you ever understand the reason behind all those bad things that happens to your life?  Do you ask yourself or God why it happens?  When things don't come my way, I used to look back my past experiences and how I get through with it and that’s how I get my strength to face my troubles and mistakes.  I always told myself that it’s just a bad day and tomorrow or soon it will be different just like before.

Anyway, at this time my photos and quotes are random thoughts and I hope somehow I inspire you to live, love and enjoy life.  I am always praying that you may have enough courage and strength to face the day.  Thanks for reading my Blog.

Passion


I’m glad and very much happy that I able to take a break and live with the things that I love and enjoy most which is taking photos and writing simple quotes. That’s one of the things that I’m passionate about. Well I’m sure you know what it feels like having your own time after working so hard.  And, so now here I am sharing my thoughts with you again and I hope I won’t get you bored.  Well anyway, I’m a big fan of Oprah Winfrey because of her compassion, humor and intelligence and so many other things, and I remember one thing she said about passion is it’s energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you. Every time I think about the things that I love and enjoy most there is certain kind of power that changes my emotions.   I don't know if you experience that kind of feelings, but I'm sure you do in some way.  I often heard from famous and successful people as they share and talk about the secret of their success and one thing they always mention, that’s passion, being passionate with what they do bring them to tower of success.  Oftentimes they advice to follow our heart and live with our dreams no matter what happens.  It’s not an easy thing to do, but it’s the only thing you must do, if you want to become the person you want to be.  I love the message that US President Barack Obama said to one of the late greatest innovators Steve Jobs, he said “Jobs is brave enough to think differently, bold enough to think he could change the world, and talented enough to do it."  And I absolutely agree to what he said.  There’s only one main ingredient in success and in happiness and that’s passion, passion to endure failure and embrace pain, passion to follow and live your dreams and passion to live life to the fullest. That’s life.

I hope you have a great day, same with me.  Always take time to take a deep breath and smile, be happy and enjoy life, because it will only yours once.
