a simple message

At certain points in your life, loneliness and inferiority would occasionally creep inside your happy nest. There will be times that you'd feel you insufficient, insignificant, inefficient, and never worthy of those dreams you live for.

But remember, from that point, you can only go two ways: It's either you choose to revel in misery and let your life pass you by, or you choose to throw the unnecessary drama out of your nest and start anew.

In the past few months, as I have battled certain crises in my life, I was able to realize how God works wonders in everyday life. If you take the time to take a look at how the day went by, you will realize that there is at least something good that has happened that day. And as you learn to appreciate these small things, you will realize that God never neglects. Take the time to appreciate these things. See how they outweigh all the negativity despite how much tension your problems are causing.

The message of this entry is simple: Never give up on any crisis because life has so much more in store for you. Shallow, you may think. But there's more to "Never give up!" than that. I am writing this because of the two kids who have recently claimed their lives because of their own personal crises. They may not have had someone tell them that life is worth every pain, every sacrifice, every rejection. I am also writing this for all the other people who have chosen to resign themselves to the passive way of living. They deserve a spark of hope to make them reconsider.

If there is one thing I would like everyone to do, it's to count your blessings. Because chances are, you will lose count. You will give up. And that's the only thing you should give up on.
