Formula for Happiness

You will never achieve what you are capable of

if you're too attached to things you're supposed to let go of.

~Marc and Angel Hack Life

I am a woman full of emotional attachment to almost anything that touches my life. But along the way I learned that "changes" are inevitable and at a point it time we have to let go (of anything, whether it be love, a thing or someone who had to pass by but would never be part of our life forever) and move on.

God is really gracious to remind me of the perks of moving on. Quotes and thoughts about moving on and letting go were pouring since yesterday. Just in time for the new year eh?

Stairways to Heaven

"Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, 

but all the happiness and growth occurs while you're climbing it"

~Andy Rooney

Mountain Province

Euphoria, yes it was! The best trip of my life thus far.

The road to Sagada wasn't an easy one. You will go through curly,zigzag roads which seems endless and will make you feel like puking. But thinking about the destination and journey itself is exhilarating. 

Our life can be compared with this road, the ups and downs may seem endless but the lessons and experience are priceless. And in the end you'll realize that despite everything, life is worth a try!!!

Letters

"A teacher's purpose is not to create students in his own image,

but to develop students who can create their own image"

~Anonymous

I never had an idea that I will post this picture in time when I am back to teaching. Procrastination sometimes has its own reason. This paper reminds me of the countless letters I received from my students way back 19forgotten (jk). I almost forgot how it feels to receive one, until one of my students gave me a letter yesterday (she made me love teaching even more - Thanks A.M.).  Teaching is exhausting, but as long as I can touch lives - the h*** with exhaustion - PROUD TEACHER here dearies.

Inspiration

"It is during our darkest moments

that we must focus to see the light"

~Aristotle Onassis

Here's a bit of inspiration for all the people out there who need to find the light to guide them. 

Hang on and let's celebrate life.

Take time

"Beware the barrenness of a busy life"

~Socrates

I thought when you pour out your effort, heart and all at something you will be fulfilled. But they don't. Being busy doesn't always equates progress, self satisfaction and fulfillment. Now, not only my head but also my heart knows that we cannot make it for the lost time. We don't have the future yet, we only have the present so might as well live one day at a time and enjoy life. There are far more awesome things out there. I know it.
