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.

sheesh. I'm damn tired this week. I've slept so late last saturday...or should I say sunday since it was already 4 in the bloody morning that I was able to sleep. Then the days following that fateful night was also spent...till the wee hours of the night. And my eyes are hurting.

Thank God for the 4-day weekend. Hurray! More time for sleep!

Hmmm...I feel so left behind by my generation. Kasi naman diba...hindi na ako nakikinig ng radyo. Sige na. Fine. Makikinig na ako sa radyo...Alam niyo na. Yung mga musical instruments lang ang tinututog. JOKE.

Tell me. Am I being so irrational since I can't sleep inside my room alone? I can't. Lol. As if that explains everything, diba? When we first came here, I can. And I was in grade 4 then! Waha. Kung kelan gumurang eh dun pa dumuwag! Tsk. That happens if you keep on hearing stuff about your village. And I must. I mean, sleep here already. Since by summer my mom and brother will visit the states, my father won't be coming home...and I'll be left alone on the second floor. And my mom was saying that she will allow me to stay behind IF I can sleep here alone. Darn. I can't! It's too damn quiet at night. Isang away lang ng mga puso at kalabog sa bubong eh bumibilis na tibok ng puso ko. Heh.

Hay buhay nga naman pag duwag ka.

Can't you tell I'm bored?
