We are unique


I’m still determined to be cheerful and happy, in whatever situation I may be, for I have also learned from experience that that greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions and not upon our circumstances.


I shall not let all things bother me. I should be grateful to those who have denounced me, for they have increased my wisdom and concentration. I should be grateful to those who have made me stumble, for they have strengthened my ability. I should be grateful to those who have abandoned me, for they have taught me to be independent. I should be grateful to those who have deceived me, for they have deepened my insight. I should also be grateful to those who have hurt me, for they have reinforced my determination.


In life, people comes and go, those who doesn’t stay are those who does not matter and those who stay are those we should appreciate. Things happen for a reason, may I have the wisdom to face the reality and accept the true nature of things. I shall not play the blame game and I shall not whine, things happen for a reason. Is never the loss that counts, is always the gain that matters.


For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us but not drown us. I was always looking outside myself for strength and confident, but it comes from within, it is there all the time.


The bird of paradise alights only upon hand that does not grasp. When things don’t seem to go right, there is always another way. Like a blanket to short, you pull it up and your toes rebel. You yank it down and shivers meander about your shoulder, but cheerful folks draw their knees up and pass a comfortable night. A strong positive mental attitude will create more miracles then any wonder drug.


May this be a reminder to me and to those who in need. Take each step forward as a challenge, let in the good times and get through the bad. Believe in yourself that you are full of untapped potential. We are unique.
