Do you believe in good karma?

          Another week is almost starting now and are we ready to share our generosity with others for the coming days?

          As we go through the events day in and day out, we at times feel the burden and stress of knowing the sad plight of our brothers and sisters here and there. 

          What this world then needs is PEACE. A Peace that is rooted in the very own deep of our senses. We have enough of these worldly sufferings and chaos caused by man's greediness and evil ways. 

"Peace is not made in documents, but in the hearts of men."

          Hence to spread this good karma, we need to feed ourselves with good and positive vibes everyday. Let us all become agents of change so that this world will become a place so worthy to live in. Let us all be positive contributors so that all those brothers and sisters who are suffering in pain, hunger, unfairness, and others may be freed and carried on to a world of happiness and peace.

          Life journey.....where are you in your present life journey? Can you trace back the paths that you have chosen so far? To each his own..do you believe in that saying? Somehow that's what makes life more interesting to live on. Having in mind the formation of a web, life is so full of complexities that at times, you arrive in a crossroad and it gives you an impression what pathway will become your personal choice? Is it the one leading to the left of the other way around?

          Somehow, along this web comes the reality that life is a very colourful and exciting journey especially those moment of struggles and adversities. What is your attitude when confronted with such stages? Are you confrontative or one who distances himself and rather stay on the sideline?  That's how paradoxes at times play in a  very significant way in life that even struggles and adversities become sources of blessings instead of them becoming reasons of one's downfall. 

          How on this earth can you consider them as such? Perhaps at this time upon reading these queries, plenty of things pop up in your mind and one of them states that a person's attitude towards those two (struggles and adversities) will either make or break him. Negative as they could be, they could initially result to stresses, desolations, disappointments, etc. however when one could lift up his head and stay strong on his faith and on his self esteem, he will soon or later comes out as triumphant over them. 

By the way, if you are ready to turn positive thinking into real results and start attracting more abundance into your life, I highly recommend the Midas Manifestation System. It's simple to follow, and the changes I've felt have been amazing. Learn more here---- https://www.digistore24.com/redir/439776/danyan2001usce73/

          Consequently, these struggles and adversities could lead him to live in a firmer foundation- one that could face squarely life's varying chapters and colours. Hence, consistently stay firm and focus so as to be able to emerge victorious over those negative events thus receiving further more blessings in life.

The Triumph of Good Over Evil

          Just last night, I watched a film entitled " A Lonely Place To Die" and I enjoyed the film from the very beginning until the end. Sharing with you a short summary of the movie, it tells about a group of climbers who made a climb in a mountain somewhere in Scottish Highlands. While on their journey, they uncovered a buried girl who was kidnapped by the bad guys. 

          Anyway the movie tells us the struggle between good over evil. While the story continued to develop, there is always that element of surprises when it comes to the tug of war between these two opposing elements. Although some scenes of the movie can be considered "surprising" like when the main character Allison was hit by a rock on the face and fell hard to the ground, I was expecting her to be gravely wounded or immobilised due to the extreme height plus her being a woman however, there you can find her standing, swimming and running as if nothing serious happened to her.

          Anyway, I leave that to the critical eyes of the other viewers of the film and somehow, I will focus on the triumph of good over evil. Yes it is very true that these two are constantly present in our world and even in ourselves. What holds us to be stronger in the face of life's evils is the faith that we have in ourselves and in others. On the other hand, I believe that it is innate in us to be good. Devoid of any excuses, yes it is true that we could never be perfect everyday and we continue to succumb to the demands of our flesh and of our wants but somehow due to our higher capacity most notably our intelligence, we are able then to triumph over the sins and evils of this world. 

          May we continue then to allow ourselves to be bringers of "good" to others. Let our light shine on ourselves and on others.

                                       

Stress: How Do You Cope with Them?

   Note:" As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualified purchases. Amazon and Amazon 

        I just read a book authored by Bernard Seal entitled " Academic Encounters Human Behavior" and in one of his articles in this book, he made mention about the presence of stress in our life. He defines stress as " stimuli or events in our environment that make physical and emotional demands on us and sometimes it applies to our physical and emotional reactions to such stimuli." 

          If we keep our focus on our environment, certain events can  become stressful to us such as the traffic, financial deprivation, crisis in the family, loss of a loved one and many more. So many that these stresses evolve in simple yet at times complicated forms yet personally, I believe that what counts most for us in any stressful situation is how do we indeed cope with the situation.

          We have different kinds of coping and it even differs according to each event that happens in our life. Basically it is innate in us that we refrain from allowing ourselves to be harmed and to be left out. Self- preservation is a very essential factor for all of us hence in any stressful event, we also have our own means of coming out positively in spite of the odds at hand. Live a happy life and avoid stress.

What I Want My Kid To Remember During The Holidays

Note: "As an  Amazon Associate, I earn fromqualifying purchases. Amazon and Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com,Inc. or its affiliates."

         Amidst the business of this holiday season, we are caught up, at times, in a day to day bickering due to all its fast changing paces. However, when we come to our loved ones especially with our kids, nevertheless we consistently see to it that we leave them nothing but the most positive influences in life.

          Personally, I want my kid to remember especially on this season the idea of sharing. In fact, I believe in what others say that one of the most essential things in life is sharing. Yes. That's exactly what I want my little boy to remember when he becomes a grown up. I want him to relive and relive the feeling of being so wonderful when he is able to share his presence, time, skills etc. with others. The idea of sharing goes beyond one's limitations such as physical, social, spiritual. Although it is a fact that we all have our own limitations yet what counts most for us all is that we can muster sufficient courage to embrace them and move on with life. 

Melbourne's Yarra River: by Angelyn Vania Sihombing

          I need to show to my kid that one's real strength goes deeper and never lies merely on the surface. Moreover, at times, paradoxically, we come to terms just with our own weaknesses and never appreciates our own strength. That's exactly what I want to impart with  my kid that when he grows up, essential things in life are those which are kept deep in ourselves such as our values and traits.....considered as our treasures and beyond any price.

GRATEFULNESS IS A VIRTUE

          Of all  the virtues that we have in our lifetime, one of the most noteworthy is GRATEFULNESS. Kindness is closely associated with this virtue. At times, we tend to neglect to show this virtue to others especially when we merely focus on all those life's trivialities. 

          However, it takes not much on our effort to manifest this virtue to others yet this could often be neglected and ignored. What then is gratefulness? As such, gratefulness is "a feeling or attitude in acknowledgment of a benefit that one has received or will receive. The experience of gratitude has historically been a focus of several world religions and has been considered

 extensively by moral philosophers such as Adam Smith. With the advent of the positive psychology movement, gratitude has become a mainstream focus of psychological research. The study of gratitude within psychology has focused on the understanding of the short term experience of the emotion of gratitude (state gratitude), individual differences in how frequently people feel gratitude (trait gratitude), and the relationship between these two aspects." (source: wikipedia- the free encylopedia)

          As the above reference would tell us, this virtue is a positive one and this becomes an instrument for certain relationships to grow and to expand. At a certain point in our life, we ought to think  of others more than of ourselves thus it is but appropriate for us to extend our gratitude to all those who have become instruments for us to become who we are now.

          In our life, people come and go yet if we take a look back on certain chapters in our life, we then can pinpoint significant people who have extended themselves to us in one way or the other. They just come without any pre- condition in sharing themselves to us. They, in the process, leave some imprint in our life. Our present status in life is a product of all the processes and inter actions that we passed in our lifetime.

         Thus, it is but proper to extend back our gratefulness to all those people who have become part of our life journey. We are further invited to become instruments for growth to others so that they themselves will experience positive development in life.
