just a pat..

Sometimes you are in deep thought when you hear about people talking about their frustrations, regrets, and even their criticisms. And it helps a lot to be home from work, enjoying a conversation with people you consider your own. They're the ones who genuinely comfort you when you feel like you're down to your last gathered strength.

I haven't been this reflective in all the years that I've learned what it's like to go on out of a life where situations get high and then low. I think I want to THANK myself about being open to people and instances that are inevitable. And,oh yes, I am no exception to them, I could be one of them. Hence, this is not about me. I always remind myself that life is not just about me and the arrows that signal me where to go. Sometimes it's good when we forget about our own concern first and pause for a while to also notice how life's been treating others. They who simply need a listener, a pat on their back and a reminder that, "hey!it's OK." And it's worth the while. We all need to mellow to give way to what we might have missed hitting.

Humans are the most vulnerable creations in the world, the highest form of creations yet the weakest. And that no matter how much we thought of our selves as tough or winners in our own realm, still we come to a point when we need the surrendering and go back to that something tangible that keeps us going. You don't get all the answers in life. We only get to understand them because we are made to be patient like real winners to finally see what lies ahead and tell ourselves how we are in the making.

Slow down, however, persevere. That's what life is teaching me. And of course, learn to be happy. There are a lot of reasons to smile everybody. They are in the littlest of things. Some say, that's so easy to tell because life goes well for others. Yes, that is right. But the choice is ours to make. Will I start being happy now, or maybe later, when I get to my dreams?

Now, be like children at times. Be carefree..laugh,cry,dance,sing or play when you feel like. It makes you feel more human, yet, never lose that sensitivity.

Well, this is just one moment of contemplation when perhaps some people need a pat. Never fail to tell your self.."I'm OK." Yes, it helps...the mind does. :)

lovin this song..:)

Lord, we pray for the world today. The recent typhoons that did not only affect the people living within my country but also that of the whole world. We can do nothing without YOU. You are the only source of our strength and the only hope when our trust in our self is almost fading. Be with us Lord when we feel like there's nowhere to run..when we worry too much of this world than think of how to save the world that you have entrusted us. We are so sorry when we have become too selfish and think only of the world. Guide us Lord as we are sometimes weak in our faith. Remind us of the things that are temporal so that we'll know which are more essential. Lead us to a way that only You can fathom. Heal our wounded pride to think that we can do more of this earth and forget that we are actually limited. Thank you for being so forgiving of our shortcomings. May we be united in this time of crisis especially in prayer. Amen.

career path

"When my students fight in front of me, throw objects at each other as part of their play (of which at times, the object would hit me), or when they become unruly, I feel like my monstrous countenance at that already brings trauma to their young minds..I am in mixed emotion after. At times, it has made me feel odd to have put myself in a stricter view in front of my learners. But I have to.."as teachers, we have to." Grown-ups nowadays are not what every parent expects they are at their best in school. Their values are no longer hundred percent out of the teachings we teach in schools and at home but are greatly influenced by our new technology that has become so adamant and of which we as adults have become so clueless as to how far it might lead our learners. How can I be so sure that they are still the hope of our future generation? This is the toughest question that continues to challenge the educators of today."

Few years had passed when I first heard a good friend affirming on the old cliche about "teaching as the noblest of all professions". I honestly did not grasp the thought that goes with it at that time. I have always believed that no profession is far greater than the other. All works require the hearts of us all. All being noble. As I hold true to what I believe, I thought I have fully understood what it means to be giving your heart in what you do. Venturing now into this new discovery about teaching as a profession, I then slowly realize what a good friend mentioned years ago and reflect what the present is showing me . It took me years to visualize that there is more to what I had very little anticipations.

The greatest challenge lies on the truth that a teacher does not only hone the minds of these individuals. Teachers don't simply teach and facilitate learning--- they affect lives. All come from different cultures, values ,and attitudes. And this is happening everyday as part of a teacher's lifestyle.

However, I always tell myself that I have no right to complain. This is the path I choose. If I've had serious regret, perhaps it's when there are some of us who do not understand what it means to be in the teaching profession.

Thanks for reading.:)
