I was going through my old blog at http://ishathebeautiful.multiply.com when I found one blog that I particularly like. Actually, there’s more of these blog entries that I always like reading over and over. It’s just that this one surprised me. It was written March 11, 2007. That was the time when me and LOVE weren’t really in good terms (in other words, I was in everywhere else but LOVE). I am surprised at how far I’ve come from the time I wrote this till today. It’s a good thing I already knew back then that LOVE needed patience and hard work.

Here it is:

 

if there are things i’ve learned in life, knowing how i used to live it not too long ago, one of them is the fact that if you want things to end right, you have to start them right in the first place.

happy endings only exist in movies. movies for the immature, to be exact. because the truth is, real life never ends. i mean, nothing in this life just ends. everything that we do affects us, molds us, makes us what we are, what we become.

it is when we learn to accept some truths in life that we become happy. sometimes, we make decisions, impusilve ones, that take us to hostile places. sometimes too, we do just the right thing and make ourselves happy.

i don’t know what i am doing right now. i am not sure if this is right. i am not sure if this will make me happy, if this will make everybody happy. but what i do know is that this feels right. after all the mistakes i have made before, stupid or stubborn ones, i have stumbled upon something i know i will never regret, even if it turns out to be a failure.

i have never been known as someone who gives up, and i am not giving up now. i can hold on. i know i can hold on. it does not take only a patient man to hold on the way i do now. all it takes is knowing how to love somebody. all will be well, i know that. and maybe one of these days, i can say that too.

For some time, I haven’t really shown interest in life coaches and the likes. I liked coaching people, but I mostly coached on work-related stuff. Things have changed now. I realize that I have lived a colorful life. I have a lot of experiences that put me far beyond my years. I’ve always said that my life was hard. But for that, I couldn’t be more thankful. If I hadn’t gone through rough times, I would not have wonderful, unbelievable stories to tell.

I want to be a life coach because I feel that I can help people. I have always loved coaching, even when I was a language coach. I want to be able to help individuals become better. I could maybe help them develop better relationships, better career decisions, or better personality.

Right now, I will try to scour the internet with materials in becoming a life coach. I hope this will be a fruitful task.

Welcome

The first of March. It feels like I was just celebrating the new year a week ago. I can’t believe we’re two months into 2011 now.

I want to take this time to reflect on what has happened in my life lately. It saddens me to think that nothing BIG has happened to me, so far. A few years ago, I would already be looking for the happening instead of just waiting for it. But that was then. I have learned to just sit by the sidelines and let the people have their moment.

I have had a wonderful life. I am not contented, but I am more than thankful. I’ve been given more than I actually deserve, and I am not complaining.

I don’t feel that 2011 is the year when some WONDERFUL and BIG will happen to me. But what I do feel is that 2011 will be stable, blessed, and magnificent.

Two months have passed since the new year came, but I can say that mine is just starting. xoxo
