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.

The way home

"Our way to practice is one step at a time,

one breath at a time"

~Shunryu Suzuki

Caleruega

In life, sometimes we have to take detours. But time will always come, when you'll feel that you had reached the end of the road and there's no other way than to turn around and go back where you truly belong.

Appreciation

"Appreciation is a wonderful thing:

It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well"

-Voltaire

Christmas is almost here. I am now on the highest peak of my happy mood hunting gifts for loved ones.

So busy  I may fail to get that one thing I desire the most to practice my new found desire to capture life. I sulked for like 7 hours. But it led me to the conclusion that nothing will happen even if I do that. So I braced myself and accepted the fact that it wasn't here yet cause it's not the time to be.

God has a plan. And for that I will wait for the right time.

Wallflowers

"I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod;

my shadow does that much better"

-Plutarch

Wallflowers? Nope, just when we wanted to. Right guys?

Caleruega

"Be faithful in small things because it is in them
that your strength lies"
-Mother Teresa

Caleruega's Transfiguration Chapel, 

Caleruega made me gasp at first sight and the only word I managed to say was wow.  

It is indeed a perfect place to ponder and pray 

and to free your mind of heavy loads.

Bridge over troubled wated (jk)

"Cross the bridge when you get there"

I am such a worrier, like worrying is my hobby. 

And most of the things I worry about never happens,

and they concern the future. I tend to over think things.

Duh, it making me sick.

Can I just be happy go lucky sometimes,

and cross the bridge when I get there?

It's the Climb

"It is better to take many small steps in the right direction

than to make a great leap forward only to stumble backward"

-Proverb

Caleruega, Nasugbu, Batangas

And that is a no sweat title, cause I imagined Miley Cyrus singing when I saw the stairs. What's with the step and direction? It's so redundant, so I'll leave it for you to figure out.

P.S. I finally created a Facebook Page for this blog. Only click like if you want. Gee, thanks

Lapse of Judgment

"Judgments prevent us from seeing the good

that lies beyond appearances"

-Wayne Dyer

 taken at Caleruega, Nasugbu Batangas.

I thought this picture would be an ugly duckling. But  I had a lapse of judgment,

cause it's one of my favorites (beauty is indeed in the eyes of the beholder).
