I saw this video shared by my friend via Facebook. It is the Coca - Cola Truck of Happiness. I was so overwhelmed to see how the people from Coca - Cola bring smiles to the people who attend to the truck. The Coca - Cola Truck of Happiness gave away free coke, roses, teddy bears, a lazy chair, a toy robot, a skateboard, a fishing rod and even a lechon. It simplifies the essence of happiness; happiness is everywhere. It may be as simple as a smile, saying "I LOVE YOU", giving hugs, sharing your sandwich with a friend and even giving alms. It is never difficult to bring happiness to others. Always keep in mind : share with a friend, smile, give free hugs, say I love you to your loved ones and SPREAD THE HAPPINESS. :)
WHAT DO YOU LIVE FOR?
I randomly asked my friends a few questions: What is their purpose in life? What do they live for? Some says it is for their family, loved ones, friends, GOD and even for themselves. They want to earn a living, landed a good job that will earn them lots of money and to buy the things that they need or want. I quoted some of their answers : "I am living for the sake of my family, my friends and my Squirty ♥", " I live for my loved ones & God. without them, I am nothing.", " I live for the Love,pleasure and glory of the Lord Jesus Christ.", "I live for God's given purpose... to be a witness of His goodness.", "I live for the Holy Will of my creator and i believe that the Holy Will is to fulfill the purpose of my existence which is to maximize the talents and gifts He has bestowed upon me that i may share His blessings to all I can reach out.", "I live for my dreams.", "I live for happiness, to give and receive happiness. I live to see my family and friends happy, inasmuch as to see my students happy and live a meaningful life.", "For my family, i have all the reason to live because of them. And especially with God he give us life to enjoy every creation he made for us.","I live for the people who depend on me.", "Every morning I ask God to grant me the capability to do the things that HE wants me to do, so I guess that to discover and carry out God's will for me is what drives me to wake up and carry on with my day. I guess in essence, I live to find what I truly live for.", "I live for myself, for the people i love and for the people who loves me.", "I live for myself and for the people I love. I continue to live because I believe I have something worth living for.", " I live for my Creator and my co-creators.", "I live for my family. Having a family (husband and kids), is like half your life is theirs already. without me they're nothing. without them, i'm nothing." I am so glad to see that most of them live for their family, loved ones and GOD. But what is it that we really want in our life? Is it to have a nice house? a charming car? a new gadget? Or is it to serve other people with glad? What is the essence of our EXISTENCE?
I believe that we are made for a purpose. I believe, as a Catholic, that my purpose in life is to serve God and my fellowmen. It is to be who Jesus what me to be. Be someone who uplifts others. The person who set a good example to every person that I know. Be the best of whatever and whoever I am. Our existence in this world is a gift from God. A gift that we should make use for good. I know we are not created to be perfect but God knows how to forgive. We may not be THE PERFECT ONE but we could be THE RIGHT ONE. Value the life that has given to us. Act what is appropriate and righteous. Be someone that GOD has molded us to. Now ask yourself, WHAT DO I LIVE FOR?
CHANGE IS NOT A BIG WORD
I sat in front of the television. I was watching the local news on screen while I wait for my tutee to come home. The news was about the aftermath of the tragic earthquake happened in Churchchrist, New Zealand. Some people were still missing and 98 people were filed unsurvived. There were survivors and they thank God for the second life that has given to them. From the incident that had happened to them, they have learned great lessons in life. They have learned to value the small things that they have and appreciate the little things that life brings.I just hope people would do the same awareness, without the fact that they have to experience such devastation. May all the things that are currently happening in the world make us fully aware of our great mission in our existence; it is to live for the greatness of ALL. Let us all start anew, serve people, do good deeds and make every moment of our lives worthwhile and fulfilling.

TALL TREE
I found this poem from my multiply account and just wanted to share it here. This is a poem inspired by a love from two different worlds. The story behind this "forbidden" love would be another entry. :) Here goes the poem:
I caught myself staring on an empty space
Words are not enough to forget your charming face
Boy, you kept me awake thinking what it’s gonna be
If you only fight your true feelings toward me.
I guess, I can’t bring back those subtle time
And how you say that I’m a perfect dime.
Boy, I left it all through
And I thought I’m already over you.
Words are not enough to forget your charming face
Boy, you kept me awake thinking what it’s gonna be
If you only fight your true feelings toward me.
I guess, I can’t bring back those subtle time
And how you say that I’m a perfect dime.
Boy, I left it all through
And I thought I’m already over you.
MEMORIES
I thought time can erase all the memoirs,
It clings and lingers to my heart as it freezes.
The pain runs deeply to my veins,
And how I ease my mind through the rain.
Now I know, it’s not easy to let go.
The person who helped you beautifully grow.
BACK ON THE TRACK
Hi and Hello. These are the words that we usually say to get someone's attention or even starting a conversation. Very simple it is. But starting a blog entry is a bit "complex" to me for it's been a while since I last wrote an entry on my previous blog site ; only to find out that it was now named as "unavailable". I don't have any idea that it had drifted away from the world of worldwide web. I didn't even say goodbye. Sigh.
Kidding aside, I miss this. I miss writing. They say writing is as easy as ABC. You'll just input all the things that go with your mind; everything under the sun. You also write of something that you feel, whether you are glad, sad, anxious, worried, excited or even in pain. You can write anything about something personal, love, life, career, politics, food, leisure, travel, movie, gadgets or album reviews and etc. It is not as easy as you think. In writing, you have to put your heart in it. Passion is one of the key. I believe that a blog entry is a reflection of the writer's emotion. They say writing is one good example of rehab. Stressed out or feeling confused, I say writing would be a great idea to release it. It's like having your own rehabilitation and improvement of oneself. So am I going to need this? Just wait for my next entry. Ciao! xoxo
