"Fill your paper with the breathings of your HEART

Our vision of reality changes as we grow up. When we were young life is a whole lot easier to deal with. We get most of the things we wanted. We always have our folks to help us out. We can do everything we want, and nobody would dare to care. Everything is possible.

However, as we get older we realized that our reality always changes… turning into something we’ve never-ever known. But reality, no matter how strange it was… no matter how vague it may appear from time to time, never fails to treats us into challenges that makes us better.

When we grow up life may not be easier the way we deal with it when we were younger. We may not  get all the things we want. We may no longer have our folks to help us and to back us up. We may not be able to do everything we want because the whole world would (definitely) dare to care. We suddenly realize that in reality, there were things that are not possible. BUT we can always go somewhere near what our hearts truly desires.

Our life becomes more challenging when we get older. But these only makes our lives more special because by the things that we experience, no matter how tough it is or no matter how we mess up… no matter how much pain we’ve gone through… all these experiences left us with nothing but learning we could always turn to as an instrument for our next battle.

(admit it or not) People expect much of their realities and so our realities expect much from us.

And what’s real is that people are far more capable of doing things than what they ever think of. We have the power not only to plan and imagine what our lives would be…we have the power to maneuver our own life. To bring our imaginations in reality. But of course everything comes with certain formulas that we need to work out with.

Have the habit to lay out plans on how you can get the life you want but always be ready with surprises because oftentimes an unexpected thing can make a huge turn to our lives.

Imagine how everything will be look like and feels like the moment you’ve already attain your dreams. Imagine everything vividly, from the biggest to the smallest detail.

Work hard but never-ever forget to enjoy life!

Pray and believe that no matter how far your dreams may seem, you can make it happen.

This is my vision of reality.

Our realities are reflections of who we are. It changes, it grows and becomes challenging every time. And so are we. Our reality is not what it is but it is how we live it.

It’s been a very long time since I haven’t write anything down. Not even visiting this account for almost a year. Some might be surprise to learn I got one. But YES this is mine (hehe).

As I’m taking a glimpse to my tumbler… my fingers on the keyboard… it feels like I am writing for the very first time. Giving me an odd thrill of excitement, the kind of feeling you experience when opening a gift and find something nothing less than what you really want to receive.

My senses find peace whenever I write…whenever I do something I truly love. And I bet everyone, too, does. Some people may have yet to discover what they want…what they truly want. But I believe they feel it… somewhere deep in their hearts. Knocking…scratching their temples…just as I did back to desperate times when I’m on this certain phase where you just don’t know exactly what you want or who you are. You keep on searching for answers to questions that each day seem to ruin the little happiness you have.Well, that sounds terrible stressful but it’s true. (it’s true that it’s a bit exaggerated..toinks!).

Eventually, I don’t know how it happened, but I just woke up and everything were very ok. And the feeling right after I overcome the “emo days” was immensely rewarding, refreshing, stimulating, revitalizing,empowering, dishwashing….Oooophs! ehem. There’s just no words can describe it, it’s as if you were born again. And having a new life…a great chance, you can barely think putting it to waste. So you look at things differently… asking what’s right rather than what’s wrong, you became positive. and just by being such you feel good about yourself… you feel good about others. Well, fears and doubts may at times interfere but nothing defeats a belief that whatever comes your way…YOU CAN. Besides most of the trials we’ve gone through were once made our way rocky, but look at ourselves now…We have won over problems of our past and still counting for successful life battles. So DO NOT WORRY for whatever it is that’s bothering you, you will overcome. 

I believe each of us meant for a certain quest serving a significant purpose.

A purpose we may not realize along the way… not until the end of our journey.

In our journey there were battles.

some lasted for a while, others seem to never last.

But we have to win over, anyhow.

Our armors were courage and sincerity.

 Prayers and faith, our strength.

And the desires of our heart our light.

Right from the beginning of our quest there will be no shortcuts but it will always ends with finding our Divine Comforter . 

This is my first  official post on my tumblr, excluding those i have posted earlier for testing and lecture purposes courtesy of my cousin- AteGlaiz (whom I would like to thank so much…oh,oh..and Grace!) …I’m still new to this…  and just like any other “first Times” in my life , this particular spot on cyberspace never fails to be memorable. I’ve always wanted to create a blog, but since I am a techie idiot and don’t have enough time for things other than schooling… Blogging appears to be impossible at the moment. That’s why my heart jumped for joy when my couz introduced “tumblr” to me… Now, I’ve just got an instant site for blogging , yeah, yeah! one can hardly called it “BlogSite” in terms of my writing styles (I think), so far. but, who knows?!? we’re mammals right?! and humans can learn everything just by observing… I believe that in the process I can learn more about the technical and artistic sense of writing. Just have to work it with passion and making sure I’m always at the edge. So there.

This is the first, and I’m  looking forward for the next counts!

Have a Blessed Day!
