Regrets

I wish I can turn back the time..

I wish I did things differently..

- That would the things I might say with a feeling of sorry to myself.

Honestly it's not easy to handle this emotion but since you have no choice or you can't change what's already taken place the only thing that you can do is to move on and try to be the best person after such event.

Can you think of a particular person you wished you have kept? Think for a moment before reading further.

Why do you want to keep this particular person? What did you wish you could have done that might prevent such event from taking place.

Answering these question will probably gives you clues on how to handle your today and managing yourself in the present moment with a special person of yours.

Like I always said I pretty messed up almost everything I had before.  Before appreciating what I had today.

Sometimes you kept looking and looking for something good; that actually everything was already in place in front of you.

You just have to appreciate that's already been there. The nice people you had, your special someone or every opportunity you had right now.

One thing I learned from regrets is that whenever you had something that is handed to you by God. You have to appreciate it and thankful.

People who aren't thankful will keep losing people, opportunity and good relationship.

Value everything that you had and what you kept on receiving big or small. Appreciate the small stuffs because big stuffs will be given when you are so grateful with small.

If you don't value what you earn you will gonna keep losing it down the drain.

Value each time and day. Don't look at the years because it's already and always taking place. Instead learn to live in each present moment.

The best time to start practicing your gratitude is Now! Be humble, learn to say thank you and you love them.

Live today and keep doing what is good in spite of so many people who are doing the opposite thing.

A Mirror Language

Let me start this with a story of how I started playing piano. As I can remember, I was on 4th grade that time. My father sent me to a music class in my hometown. My father ask me if I wanted to learn how to play a piano. Yes, I said.

The Absence of Judgment

Every person has its own judgement to everything. One person ability to make a statement based on one particular thing maybe different from the other person point of view. 

When we see a person with imperfection on his appearance and attitude how do we describe him? The mere fact that we're describing him makes us start judging the person. Is it bad or not? I don't think so, but as we say something about it, our thoughts pick up stuff on the drawer.

We start by pulling out words, it may be good or bad and you're start throwing at it. 

We have this natural tendency and often we're unconscious about it.

Look at this flower. On the first glance we see it beautiful right? Stare a little longer and you'll start describing this flower. By the color of it's petals, size of the stem, and quality of its leaf. Instead of just appreciating this beautiful creation for as it is.

There's so much thing in life that we should appreciate without elaborating the reason.

Unconsciously that's how we think on people or situation and other things in our life. We often do describe everything and further more this causes us to be more critical to people.

Yes sometimes we do or doesn't like people and that's our own natural judgement, the ugly thing about it is we let ourselves keep that in the conscious mind and we tend to carry this thoughts and feeling everyday until it reach to a point that you need to express it negatively.

Becoming free from being a judgmental person takes time and it takes a dose of enlightenment.

My 40 year old friend reminds me how he was so hard to other people and himself. As I was recalling, He told me a story when he was new in the company. That he used to be hard to people when he notice he was being bullied by his difference.

He always works in a place where he wants to be alone since nobody understand him. It was very hostile, He engaged in a fight with different person, each in different issues and situation.

He even thought of committing suicide many years ago but he always thought his family. A friend of his, a former catechist in church give him the enlightened words. When he heard the word it sinks in and transform the way he thinks. As today he still prefer to works on isolated place, he's back on his head now and he understand that there's an ego behind.

His unconscious mind experience a sudden shift and he now understand what happened before. Good thing about it even he was a hot tempered guy he recognize it in his self and he doesn't deny it. He know he needs to work on it.

He always taught me peace, love and compassion. The absence of judgment, the acknowledgment of hatred and pain without holding. You may read reference "zen mind pdf" here >>

Simple illustration of Ego that gives us the trouble

What is Ego?  You may think that ego is like your other self, it is more selfish, he's much more demanding and he always thought he's right. If you don't recognize this there would be so much issues everyday.

You'll recognize ego by having this inner voice talking to you. You cannot absolutely eliminate it but you can contain it by recognizing it on the present moment. The awareness of your ego will keep yourself being you.

Recognize that we're created by God. Because of love he created us. Love is God and he is in us. That I believe people should living today. Out of love we do our job, relationship, business and living. 

In this noisy world, sometimes it's overwhelming. Having a deep sense of peace inside will help you live more and share more.

The Power of Words

I'm very thankful enough that our creator handed us the gift of communication and the power that he embedded in our words. Did you found it very beautiful that as human we have the ability to express our thoughts through verbal languages.

Did you ever been so grateful that we have the ability as human to say exactly the words we wish to. Animals do communicate but in different sounds and signals. It's hard to imagine people would communicate the same as animals. Isn't it funny? Aside the ability to communicate verbally we also have the ability to think before we speak.

Secrets Behind Good Vibes

Photo I taken along the Rd. in  Batangas 

I merely noticed this billboard in a distance since I'm not wearing an eye glasses. Thank God that my eye vision still notice the word "Good Vibes".

Probably the first thing you think in the morning "Good vibes please!". Specially after having a bad day yesterday and when waking up on "Monday" before going to work, projects, deals and associates.

Yeah "Good Vibration" do attract more positive things but there's something behind it and by the end of this article you'll understand that there is something more behind than having good vibes. 

How I wish that there's no more arguments, rejection, mistreatment, everything is peaceful, and everything fall as you planned it. Familiar with the song "Imagine" by John Lennon. As John sings the lyrics "You may say I'm a dreamer... that people are living for today, living life in peace and sharing the world.

You may watch this 6 minute video for enlightenment. Please do watch the video before proceeding.

Given that the world we live in is filled with negativity. For some people it may be difficult to live peacefully due to never ending issues in the society and to your own life.

I don't know if you find peace somewhere else. As peace is live within and not without.

Is it enough to have good vibration everyday to make living stress free?

Don't be sad if nobody understand you sometimes. It doesn't mean you're an outcast.

People really don't understand everything about you and they start telling what they think of you. Don't be hard on yourself. Be still and understand that you're the one that supposed to knew yourself.

Have a cup of smile everyday

A lot of people have negative vibration out there don't let yourself be affected. They should have nothing to do with you. Given that we can't totally avoid difficult people at times because they are part of our living.

Regardless of good vibes

Given bunch of bad scenarios, scene or situation in work, home, business and relationship. There are thing we can't control in life. That life unfolds every minute, day and decades. These are inevitable in life.

How can we stay in good vibration then despite of setbacks?

Patience was a factor but behind patience lays a good attitude and much more deeper. A person who tries to attain enlightenment.

I firmly believe that "Good Vibes" has nothing to do with a great feeling or good vibration but by understand himself deeply.  Once you figure it criticism, hate, egos, fear and other negative will repel on you.

Practice love and compassion, peace as this is the absolute in life.

Awakening the unconscious mind

Imagine this, life is like a theater show, there is a director along with the actor and artist. The whole crew is there and God was the producer.

The theater show should bring the moral value and meaning for the audience to benefit. Once the theater show did a good job he makes proud the producer.

You're the director who make the scene and your body is like an actor who make the scene comes alive.

Awakening from a deep sleep takes time.

Ask and you shall be given, Seek you shall find, the one who knocks the door shall be open. Matthew 7:7

Still having bad vibes? Within you is God and you have the power to keep moving against obstacles. You can start at the present moment and that is now.
