Self-pity

When I give a moment to pity for myself, I think of the past, the present, and the future.
And frustrations at work never get left behind.
These pains me-- to know that there are some who cannot separate work from personal life, and some who take sides but haven’t even tried to look at the other side of the coin.

The Seven Habits-- where are these now?

I sigh.
I cry.
And I sigh again.

I have no control over their thoughts.
That’s what life is.

But, I have a choice not to be affected.

I embrace the feeling to make it as strength.
And then I choose to be happy.

I am happy again.

My Spice

My sunny and rainy days
Have been more fun in different ways
With you as a comic husband
My life will never be bland.

To My Only Valentine

For this season of hearts, I only have this song for you.
I love you from the bottom of my beating heart.

"Weak"
by SWV

I don't know what it is that you've done to me...
but it's caused me to act in such a crazy way.
Whatever it is that you do when you do what you're doing...
it's a feeling that I want to stay.

'Cause my heart starts beating triple time,
with thoughts of loving you on my mind.
I can't figure out just what to do,
when the cause and cure is you.

I get so weak in the knees I can hardly speak.
I lose all control and something takes over me.
In a daze, your love's so amazing, it's not a phase.
I want you to stay with me, by my side.
I swallow my pride, your love is so sweet.
It knocks me right off of my feet.
I can't explain why your loving makes me weak.

It's Time after time after time I've tried to fight it.
But your love is strong it keeps on holding on.
Resistance is down when you're around, starts fading.
In my condition I don't want to be alone.

I try hard to fight it.
No way can I deny it.
Your love's so sweet.
It knocks me off my feet.

I get so weak...
Blood starts racing through my veinsI get so weak...
Boy it's something I can't explain.
I get so weak...
Something 'bout the way you dothe things you do ooh ooh, it...
knocks me right off of my feet,off of my feet.
Can't explain why your loving makes me weak.

2009 Planner

I got a free 2009 planner from Goldilocks when I bought the December Issue of Yummy Magazine. When I took a quick scan of the planner, I was inspired with the little notes it contains. It’s like a continuation of our PAPE. I really love it because I get to revive my learning on “The Seven Habits”.

Here are some of the notes for January:
January 1 – Start the year with a prayer of thanks. Make a gratitude list.
January13 – Reach out to the friend you miss the most. Give him a call today.
January 16 – When you wake up, say out loud, “Today will be a happy day!”
January 22 – Have some talk therapy! Spend at least 30 minutes conversing with a loved one today.

I have done all these things and I felt good. Some were not done exactly on the said dates, though.

There’s also a page for 2009 Wish List.
Here’s my Wish/Goal List (still to be updated).

-discover Puerto Princesa, Palawan
-go to the gym for at least a month
-cook for my family for at least once a week
-read one book per month
-write about anything
-eat healthy, include veggies in meals
-zero balance in all credit cards
-review on Grammar and Syntax
-learn to drive a motorcycle
-save at least 10,000 pesos at the end of the year
-fullfill what all the little notes say

A million thanks to Goldilocks and Yummy. It makes me think I am a good person because I know I can make others happy in just these simple ways. J
