When tackling passion, we learned that we should be passionate instead of finding passion. We also learned that it takes a lot of patience, patience with others, and with ourselves, to achieve our dreams. This time, we will learn how passion takes persistence. When you want to achieve something, it will not be always thatContinueContinue reading “Passion Takes Persistence”

Passion Takes Patience
We all have this magical grand idea that when we have this feeling of passion that everything will click. We believe that with passion, everything we touch will turn into gold, that everything will be successful, that everything we do will be done easily and effectively, and that everything we do will be accepted byContinueContinue reading “Passion Takes Patience”
Let’s talk about PASSION
For a long time, people held onto the motto ‘Find your Passion’. You see it in shirts, tarpaulins, movies, and everyone talks about it. Finding your passion is finding something that you are passionate about. And ever since I was young, that has always been my goal. I wanted to find something that I wasContinueContinue reading “Let’s talk about PASSION”
Be Rude.
I know I usually post about Christlikeness. I talk a lot about how we, Christians, must be obedient, humble, and gentle. This post isn’t going to be like that at all. However, that doesn’t mean that this is totally contrary to what the Bible teaches. Take this passage for example: “Behold, I send you out asContinueContinue reading “Be Rude.”
5 Practical Steps for the Depressed
One of my most read posts in this blog (the most read if you don’t count the ones about romantic love) is Dark Clouds: Depression. And though I’m happy that a lot of people read my own reflections about this condition, I also felt a little sad realizing that this may also mean that aContinueContinue reading “5 Practical Steps for the Depressed”
Why Do Good Girls End Up With Bad Boys?
One of my schoolmates asked me this question a few years ago. At that time, I didn’t know what to answer. It took a few minutes and a quick recall of my girl friends’ love stories for me to give credit to his observation. It took me 5 years to compose my answer. Now, I’mContinueContinue reading “Why Do Good Girls End Up With Bad Boys?”
On Waiting
The best things in life are worth waiting for. Parents have to wait 9 months before they can see their baby. Kids need to wait three years before they can go to “school.” After that, they have to wait at least 16 more years before they get out of it. You wait 365 days forContinueContinue reading “On Waiting”
On Girls: The Reserve, The Preserved, or the Conserved
I posted an article about boys which classified them into Mr. Right, Mr. Right Now or Mr. Right-For-You a few months ago. You can read it here. Now, it’s time for us, girls. You can be either one of these three. Be very careful to pick which one you prefer to be. This is theContinueContinue reading “On Girls: The Reserve, The Preserved, or the Conserved”
On Boys: Mr. Right, Mr. Right Now, and Mr. Right-For-You
All girls have three basic templates of romantic guys in their life. Let me introduce them to you… First, there’s Mr. Right Now. He’s the kind of guy who’s currently in your life. He’s visible, he’s persistent, and he’s a very viable option. He will seem to have all the time for you. He’ll wantContinueContinue reading “On Boys: Mr. Right, Mr. Right Now, and Mr. Right-For-You”
On Choices
I was born into the generation of finger-pointers. Yes. That is the tragic flaw of Baby-Boomer babies. Rarely do I find someone my age taking credit for the bad things that happened in their life. After all, it’s easy to duck and blame someone else, than to say three hard and bitter words, “It’s myContinueContinue reading “On Choices”
