ABCs of Embracing Your Life

Joy- a very simple word. When you listen to it, Just makes you feel that things will go smoothly, And it sounds really fun, Most importantly, It shows that you are savouring happiness NOW. Just a smile, When you share your joy, You will share the fun and love too!

With the recent earthquake in North-Eastern Japan, there are more and more people who are reaching out, to the victims, to their friends, to their family. Being in this part of the world, I can feel it so much stronger now. Sometimes I felt that the society is so full of hipocrisy, But yes, there people who are truly reaching out to save and help, not to receive, just to give, just to connect. Just to know that they did something to help someone. So if you realised that you have not reached out, to your friends or family for some time, maybe its now, because they maybe thinking about you, or they maybe in need of your love and care, even if they do not realise it.

I have a dear, old ( he is 85 now)and very wise friend. He once told me, you have to know why you are doing what you doing. If no, find out strong enough reasons why you are doing it, because that the faith and confidence you have, the 'why' that will help you stick all the way, all the way to success, in whatever you are doing. Having the why is like having constant motivation, then understanding it fully, and knowing deep inside that this is 'why' you are doing it, even without knowing 'how', just hold on to your why, ask God~ ask yourself, makes all the difference.

What comes to your mind when you see this word? Red eyes? puffy cheeks? Babies hungry for milk or a change of diaper? What about crying out for joy? Crying out loud and freely? Just pure bliss and happiness~ And genuine fun?

Take a look at the sky today. Ever realised that it is never the same? Sometimes you see a lot of clouds, sometimes just a few 'strands' of them, Or sometimes, you just do not see anything~ Only the clear blue sky. Life is sometimes like what see in the sky, it is never the same, thus when you change your paradigm, what you maybe able to see a different picture, feel a different sky, experience a different cloud-art~ Changing paradigm, always, to what your heart tells you, because, your heart is always right, now.

Its the ability to bounce back, the ability to recover, to make a come-back. Actually, it is more than that, it is the attitude, and the willingness to say, this is it. Now is all you have, either being pulled back and sulk in the past, or make a come-back. Taking the courage to change again, to give a chance, to yourself, and the people who care about you.

Sometimes opportunities are just out there, waiting for us to go pick it up, and enjoy them to the fullest. So, stretch whenever you can, cos remember, sometimes, we just to stretch a little, take the one step, to reach experience something great~
