Grass

I guess the problem is within me...
or may be i'm just being true to what I feel...
I can not put a word in an empty mouth...same thing that I can not pretend that i feel something...just to fill up whatever is there that is needed to be filled.
I just don't see it in his eyes...
I've seen it once...and i haven't seen it after...
it's just there...
irreplaceable.
if i force myself to see it in some other's eyes...i know i will just fail myself.
...so i must stop.
there are things that can never be forced to happen...
the most beautiful things in life...are sometimes the things that happen for unexplainable reason...
and there lies the mystery...

my friends


I will always be forever grateful to have been blessed with such wonderful and true friends. They are but rarity in this world! Words aren't enough to describe...
I see more of God's love and compassion just thinking that I have them in my life.

God is good!

A former college schoolmate of mine was not regularized in the company she was working with...let's just name it Company ABC. Her contract got ended last December. Too bad because it was another case of "office politics". Prior to her joining Company ABC, she worked with a multinational softdrink company and was occupying a supervisorial position. Her credentials are more than fine as she holds masteral degree from a prestigious university. Attitude-wise I can not think of any negative thing about her as I think she can get along pretty well with anybody. So I don't think the problem is with her.
When I heard the news, I immediately gave her a call. I guess the trauma, stress and hatred are still there...but good thing is that she will have a new life and environment in this new year as she was able to get a new job...in a company which is also at par to Company ABC.
God is good. As they say...you can never put a good person down!
To her lead...life is but a wheel of fortune...you never really know when you get bankrupt!
Somebody will teach you ...someday.

DESIDERATA

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others,
even to the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter,
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble,
it's a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself.
Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,
it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life,
keep peace in your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
