Be happy

Being happy makes all the difference. Our mood affects how we do things. It determines how effective or productive our endeavors would be. It's like the fuel of a car. You can go wherever you want without worries when it points to Full. Conversely, if it points to E or almost empty, we need to put off whatever appointments we might have and to refill it first. It's surprising to me how mood can affect productivity from zero to full of zeal. Just a tweak on the ambience could enhance your mood, granting peace of mind. Such small factor that might be seen as insignificant to many, could just be a turning point in result.

Too long. Too long have I not prayed. Too long have I been disconnected. He feels distant and irrelevant. I have put him aside and let my troubles and worries be bigger than him. Wandered far away, I have found myself struggling in the miry clay.

Come back. It's time to come back.

Of broken spirit, of broken soul.

To shut the world out or to scream your lungs out?

Begging for utter silence and solitude, you won't relent even the sound of your pounding heart to be heard. But when your tears broke out inside, your heart immediately starts to pump faster, making it harder to calm down. Unsettled, you succumbed to the erratic mood, you screamed your lungs out. But It didn't help either. You felt like a pathetic fool shouting with an empty vessel. Your loneliness echoed back to you. You felt even more helpless and emptier than you were when you were sitting quietly at a corner with your head on your bent knees. The sound of loneliness is deafening. Whether you try to stay quiet or scream out loud to silent its voice, it's to no avail.

The feeling of helplessness is overwhelming.

Fear.

Fear changes the perception of a person towards himself and towards the world(others).  

“我惊.. 我怕..” These are simple utterances that could trip a person into a panic state of bewilderment and indecision. These words are the biggest stumbling block in my life. It always leads to the unknown, the "what-ifs". Fearing the unknown robs away a person's freedom.

Love.

Do I love from my insecurities or do I love from my strengths?

"Loving from your insecurities demands from others. Loving from your strengths gives to them. Loving out of your insecurities means you don't want to see people succeed more than yourself. Loving from your strengths means you are the first to celebrate with others when you hear of their successes. Loving from insecurities daily demands “what are you going to do for me?” Loving from strengths asks others, “what can I do for you?” Too many people love from their insecurities, and that’s not love."
