desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Sorry about the lame entry...

I had to stay after school last wednesday because we were 'suddenly' told that we need to 'train' for a game last friday...which didnt happen at all. So it was wasted. And were so wasted too. We cant catch the ball properly that when I passed it to first base...she dropped it...threw to second...dropped it again...and to third base...again...dropped it. Parang mga hindi nagsosoftball eh!

And I had to be dropped off at Masinag. Salamat sa tatay ni Monique! akala ko magcocomute kami mula AA eh! But we decided not to commute from Masinag to Filinvest...nag-titipid kami e! Tinawid pa ako ni Phy! Hindi ako marunong tumawid sa high way ano. Masagasaan pa ako ng truck o tricycle! ...napaisip ako... ang lala naman kung nasagasaan ako ng bisikleta! *laughs* Buti na lang talaga di kami nagjeep...kung hindi hindi ako makakapagtricycle pauwi! Eksaktong eksakto talaga ang pera ko nun. Kinakabahan na nga ako nung nasa tricycle na ako... baka naman kasi di magkasya yung mga barya sa wallet ko... isa isa ko nilabas yung mga barya... di pa nga ako sigurado kung limang piso yun e! tapos naalala ko yung binalik na 5 pesos sa kin ni phy...nakahinga ako nang maluwag...
