Don't Miss It!


I love this excerpt from Leo Buscaglia’s Living, Loving and Learning…

“…  the people we love aren’t going to be the same all the time and yet we don’t look at each other anymore! We’re so busy doing things that we don’t stop to look at each other.

The faces of the people you love are not going to be the same in the morning, and neither is yours! Don’t miss it!

Really, the saddest phrase to me is hearing someone say, “I only wish I had—“. Well, you know, you can!

Is he sitting next to you now? Look at him. Is she sitting next to you now? Look at her, touch her hand. It isn’t going to feel the same. What are you afraid of?”

Let’s not be too engrossed with our online friends' statuses, photos, latest “chikas” and whereabouts that we miss what is important.

Maybe, the people who are with us now are just waiting for us to look at them, to touch them and to make them feel that they are loved, and we’re still busy with our FACEBOOK.

The magic of love is around us, let it not pass us by...

    I strongly agree. I practice this too. Life is too short to keep spending time on things that really don't matter that much..

    my new mantra. =)
    I agree that we shouldn't too much spend time in social networks. It's the connection that matters.

I do what I do

Writing is my outlet! I have been doing this since Grade 4. When I’ve written what I have in mind, I would sleep really well and would move on.  So, it’s like a therapy to me! Lol! http://gemsdaily.blogspot.com I love writing, I love the process of unfolding, unraveling, cocooning, De-boning as I put the exact words in my piece.. Kind of like a puzzle... Almost there, but not quite... yet! I know I am involved in the process of becoming as I continue to write, as I continue to grow, yearn and learn. I am still challenging myself to be so much more, do so much more and make my dreams come true for myself and for my family.  I look forward to have us all achieve our grandest desires for ourselves and our loved ones.  My mission is to continuously inspire, encourage and motivate myself and hopefully – you! (if by chance you read this) to just get out of our shells and be, do and have more in life.  To BE MORE, D...

Learning Life's Lessons!

I heard or read somewhere that life will continue to give us lessons until we learn it. Two weeks after graduating from college, I was already teaching college students.    I was so idealistic, perfectionist and wouldn’t tolerate students who were cheating, talking while I was teaching and not doing their work. Ye s , I was really strict! Many of my former students would attest to that! The thing was even if I knew I needed to change, I continued on doing what I was doing because I was afraid if I lost my control, if I became friendly and acted my age (I was just 20 then!, some of my students were even older than me!), I felt my students wouldn’t respect me and may took advantage of my kindness. So I continued on with my demeanor; I pushed my students to meet my expectations! I abhorred cheating, if they did so (I was good at finding out; because all our activities were computerized), the next day they would find their names written in bold caps posted in t...
