Picking Up the Pieces of a Shattered Dream

Life is not always a fairy tale. It doesn't always end up into a happy ending, a happily ever after.  We may wish it will end that way.  But sometimes, whether we like it or not,  our dreams turn shattered.  Building dreams and later watched them buckled is one of those inevitable facts in life. We simply can't have all we want. The saddest thing is, no matter how hard we work for something, there are just things that are not meant for us. There are dreams that will always remain a dream. Its painful, yes it is. But pain will make us better. It will make us appreciate more the joy and happiness. The  most important part, in our journey so-called life,  is to never surrender when problems pave the way and to never stop dreaming. Let not our dreams and goals in life be ruined by these problems. Instead, let us make these problems our stepping stones to become a better and a stronger person. That in every sunrise we would be able to say to ourselves, "I am picking up the pieces of a shattered dream, I am picking up the pieces of my life, I am whole again and much stronger, I am ready to face the world and conquer my dreams!"

Today, I just turned 23. I thank God for this special day. I thank Him for all the blessings He has bestowed upon me. I wish and pray for His guidance and wisdom. To my family, and to all those who extended their greetings and wishes, thank you all for making my birthday a memorable one.

It's been awhile

Sooo, yeah. I’m back... I’m back from nowhere. Hah. My life has been so tough and complicated, nevertheless I’m trying to move on. I don’t want to give you a detailed full story about that chapter of my life for it will just remind me of the pain, instead I wanted to close it and start anew.

Sooo, yeah. It’s been awhile since I last updated this blog. What’s up with my life? Well, I got a new job. Oops, should I say, I’m going to get a new job soon. Right now, I’m undergoing a 3-month training program, Copy Editors Learning Program (CELP), with SPI Technologies in Bacong, Negros Oriental. It’s a new different environment for me, a new opportunity to grow. I hope to (will) pass the training program and become a certified Copy Editor soon. In case I make it, I’m still contemplating whether to go freelance or take the job full time. I’m going to decide later, but for now my focus is to pass the training. Wish me luck.

On other matters, today happens to be the birthday of my Lola so I would like to greet her happy birthday! I wish her good health and more extra years. Tomorrow will be the birthday of my Tita McBeth, advanced happy birthday to her! I wish her all happiness life could bring. The day after tomorrow will be my birthday! I’m turning 23. My only wish is to clearly see the will of God for my life. =)

"Kamatayan"

Don't get me wrong. I don't want to meet him yet. But I always wonder how Kamatayan looks like? Anyone of you had seen him? I bet you don't want to meet him too.

So just for fun, I took this picture of Argey portraying Kamatayan. I hope I made him look like a real one (lol). Happy Halloween everyone!
