Do what brings out the best in you!

All of us have their own unique talent or characteristics that only us can do best. Whether it is simple or nothing to someone else, it is unique to us and brings out the best in us. In this time where everyone copies what other people do choose to be unique and do what makes you happy. Find happiness in the things that we do best.

Patience

Patience they said is a virtue. Today, I went to DMV Dillingham to renew my instructional permit. I waited for close to 5 hours just to have my documents processed and my permit to be renewed.
There I sat, patiently waited for a very long time as I watch the clock ticks as time pass by fast. Over half of the hours that I stayed in there, I wanted to just leave and go. But then I realized, that if I leave, I would just go through the same process over again because of their slow system in processing. I relate that little experience of mine in life. In life, the same thing can happen. There would be a slow system in getting what we wanted and to be where we wanted. We can also start that process, but it is up to us to choose whether we would endure the process until the end and see the fruit of our hard work. Or we can choose to run out of patience and leave our dreams and aspirations without seeing its fruit and wasting our time and effort in trying to get it. Today I chose to be patient and waited to be served of what I went there for.

In that little experience of mine, I learned that in order to be successful in anything we want, we just have to be patient. You can take a rest when you get tired chasing your dreams. Also, you can rant out your struggles in reaching it but NEVER dare give up. You never know how close you are to where you want to be. Keep the patience, always remember your goals.

LIVE YOUR LIFE TO THE FULLEST

Life has a lot of surprises

it will give you things you might not expect and,

vulnerable you might just give in and give up

emotions might decide for you too, However,

you should never give up and fold in your problems

overtime, it will pass, and 

ultimately, your pain at that moment shall go away 

rivers of tears might have been shed during your broken moment but your tears will surely dry

live the beauty of life and ride on its waves

in life, you have to keep going, you never know what is on the next chapter

fill your heart with joy because that would be your armor in all your battles

embrace each pain and each struggle, mourn over it, but never dwell upon it so,

to you, who may be struggling, Remember you have a support system; your family and friends

our pain, our problem, our burden is your battles should be called, never forget

that you have a support system to whom you can share everything with

heart to heart talk with them, open up, never be ashamed of your pain, you might share the same

ease the pain of each other and keep going 

fight!! you have been fighting and have been winning those battles

ugly battle scars might not be visible, but a brave heart is glowing through your eyes

laugh, my friend, you deserve it

live the life you've always wanted and deserves

each one of us got only one life to live but has plenty of chances to stand up in each fall

so always choose your happiness because it is hard to live a life full of regrets

to YOU who are reading this poem, keep fighting, you are closer to your goal in each battle scar you gain

LIVE YOUR LIFE TO THE FULLEST

Be a compliment giver, it can make someone keep going!

" I can live for two months on a good compliment"-- Mark Twain

Thoughts:

Many of us might be on the edge of giving up on something we work very hard on but, if what we do is appreciated and receives a little compliment, we will keep going. I hope to encourage each one of us to be a compliment giver rather than a fault finder. You will never know what impact it could give to somebody who is struggling to reach their goal. Even a simple compliment can give that person a drive to keep going. Like what Mark Twain said, it can make someone find life and live because of a good compliment. We should make an attitude to give compliments whenever someone impresses us or when we found something good in someone. It can make that person successful and continue fighting life because they know someone appreciates.

Let's choose positivity, let's give good compliments; it might save somebody from giving up.

"A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new"

A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new- Albert Einstein

Thoughts on the quote:
Many times in life we consider mistakes as a sign of failure. However, most of the time those mistakes is our learning progress; it makes us wiser for future decisions. The famous quote from Albert Einstein is true when we chose to look at it in a positive way. We will never know what we will get unless we chose to be brave and try new things. Trying new things might be scary but most of the time it is when we learn and gain experiences. Mistakes no matter how big it may be, it will help shape us become a better person.
