It’s going to be my birth day next week! Gee! I’m going to be a year older. As I think of my forth coming birth day I began to ponder what did I learned in my short existence in life. So instead of the list of menus I’m going to cook I come up with this list,
Babies are cute! (Only up to a certain period of time!)
Shopping for something unnecessary can kill your wallet! You have to save for the rainy days.
Sometimes you must also trust your instinct.
One needs to be educated to be progressive.
Pat Benatar is right love is indeed a battlefield.
Heart is fragile, it can be broken.
There is no such thing as pure evil. There’s good in everyone’s heart.(You just have to dig deeper!)
When you give, just give purely never expect something in return.
Perfect marriage doesn’t exist!
Life is not only a box of chocolate; it’s full of trial and errors as well.
When you become a mother you are not really alone in your thoughts you have to think not only for your self but for your children as well.
Avoid being impulsive specially when making decisions you must think not only twice but many times, for a wrong decision might affect not only your life but other’s too.
Although he is called with different names there is only one God.
Prayer is a way to communicate with God.
Love yourself more than thy neighbour. As years goes by I hope I can learn more so that I might be able to share it not only with my children but to my forth coming grandchildren as well
Many of us work so hard that we over schedule our days, then drive impatiently and wonder why the joy of living is eluding us.
Don’t you think it’s time to slowdown and take a rest, and find joy in living?
These are my personal suggestion on how to find God’s gift to mankind called ‘JOY’ (“it’s cheap” won’t cost you a thing!)
Take a walk on the park, enjoy the sunshine, and take time to smell the flower. Enjoy the beauty of nature and you’ll find there are simple pleasures in life.
Meditate! I even suggest that for once you welcome traffic, (I’m not kidding!) and use the time to clear your mind of the things that are worrying you and making you ugly and miserable.
Talk to your loved one. When was the last time you said hello to your parents? Have you ever said “I LOVE YOU” to your partner lately? How about your children’s report card? Have you seen them? For Christ sake! Talk to them! Ask them how they are doing lately, discuss your future plans, for a good and open communication can build a better understanding in the family.
Laugh and have fun! Take time to play with the children. Plan a family get together it doesn’t matter even if it is just outside the lawn as long as you’re laughing and having fun! Or just give them a nice big hug and let them know your there.
Read a book there are plenty of good books you can read, or better yet read the BIBLE. Because in reading, you will gain wisdom. Wisdom to help you make a better judgement in making taught decisions in life.
“PRAY” For no matter how difficult life’s tasks can be prayers can ease one’s burden.
IF YOU’RE WORKING HARD TO MAKE A LIVING, BUT NEVER APPRECIATE THE BEAUTY OF A SIMPLE FLOWER “SLOWDOWN!” IT’S TIME TO HEED THE BIBLE’S WISDOM, FIND TRUE JOY BEFORE LIFE CLOSES ON YOU!
What’s your ideal man? Out of the blue a friend asked me.
I don’t know what an ideal man looks like but one thing’s for sure I don’t give a damn about what he looks like. Looks may be good for the eyes but eventually it will fade during the course of time. Hey! Today you may look likes George Clooney or Hilary Swank, but when you reach that age, when your love handle and wrinkles started showing up and you started to resemble that fat Joe across the street or the grumpy old maid ex teacher of yours you’ll see!
What I want is whom I can share my life with no matter how well or bad it may be. Someone I can talk to about sex (YES!!) my secrets, (Oooh my! I got plenty!) plans and frustrations in life (he has to be very patient!) Someone who is willing to listen, because I’m also willing and eager to listen to him. A loving man who will not shove me away every time I hug or plant a kiss on his cute little nose.(I know I won’t shove him away my self!) He must be a good man who will not get irritated every time I touch his face, look in his eyes just to tell him how much I love him, every morning for the rest of this woman’s crazy life. (It will be a thrill if he does the same!) A strong man who might get mad at me but eventually he’ll be willing to forgive me if I did something terrible. Sometimes I can be very stubborn! (Whoa! I’m not a saint!) Although I might get mad I’m also willing to forgive him should he make mistakes.( He will one time or another) A really, really great man who will love, respect and accept me for what I am and not for what he wants me to be, because I will also love, respect and accept him for what he is and not for what he can give me. And most importantly he must be God fearing, for I want God to be the centre of our relationship.
