Los Angeles Adventure: Westlake/MacArthur Park

My last stop before deciding it was time to go home - was here at the Westlake/MacArthur Park

  - where I found real life stories.

 of people in love...

...of a man probably looking for love

or probably searching for peace...

 or maybe there were simply just passing time!



 So, what I did was to just enjoy what I had for the moment!





 until I knew, it was time to go home.


LAST STOP for the day adventure here.

March 21-30, 2008

    So many birds!

    Too bad I don't live near a park. Spending a quiet time alone at a park seems really refreshing and relaxing.

    The place reminds me of the romantic Hollywood movies I ever watched.

    Wish we have one like that here in Pinas. But for sure, vendors will flock and it would not be as peaceful and clean.

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!

Image
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...
