Accept the things you cannot change ..

 

Serenity prayer - this prayer has been my screensaver for some quite time now. I've been teaching myself to accept things I cannot change, prayed for courage to change the things I can and asked for wisdom to know the difference. Additionally, I know and feel deep in my heart, that I will be challenged, not only this summer, but also for the rest of the year. Challenges - such a bittersweet word. Sometimes it is so much easier to stay in your comfort zone and just let things be, and yes, I am aware of the fact, that there is no growth to be found in the comfort zone. You can't excel, you won't be at your best, when you're just hanging out in your comfort zone. Another thing I should reduce is to give way. I need to learn that I am not always on the road who gives way, I should realize that sometimes it's ok if I am on the priority lane. But that is even harder than leaving your comfort zone. I'd rather give way, than put myself first. So many what ifs - but another what if won't hurt anyway. I would if I could, but I can't so I won't - a sentence I've learned in middle school. Who would've thought that this phrase will guide me up until now... almost 20 years later.

Dear precious Lord, I wonder how things will start to unfold - if there are any chances of change. Please push me harder, give me more obvious signs that show me the way. For all that YOU've already done, thank you. Sorry, for being so blind sometimes and cold-hearted most of the times. St. Anthony please help me find the clues. Please pray for me. Please tell our best friend to be more patient with me. I've been quite annoying. Thank you for praying for me, for interceding for me. I'm a difficult one, I guess. Dear Lord, thank you for not giving up on me. <3

Hello world I am back

Hello Blogspot World, I am back. I don't know exactly if anyone follows my blog. But I missed writing in here. So I thought why not come back and let your mind talk. Here I am, sitting in my room listening to Justin Bieber and typing. As I've checked my last post was January 2012. That's a loooooong time. In this one year and almost a half SO MANY things happened. Yet everytime when friends ask me what I have been up to, I tell them "nothing special". Maybe because it is not that interesting to update them. Wait let me think: Last year I started with Basketball, then joined the Vienna Avengers, a group of ladies who didn't know each other AT ALL but managed to win the Filipino Basketball in Wien Championship. A S E V E N - zero. I am not bragging, but I also received individual trophies. Three officials and one inofficial. MVP 2013! :-) Dreams do come true. I never - in my wildest imaginations - thought of becoming the MOST VALUABLE PLAYER. Actually Bask...

Your Actions define you.

Senti hits Have you ever thought about doing anything you want, because it's your life and you don't care what other people will think about you? I certainly did and still do. My parents raised me with an important note that people will judge you with your actions and it will reflect on how my parents raised me. Me, being the good (which I am not, but people think I am) girl and trying to avoid problems, understood the advice wrong - when I was younger.  Human beings are not perfect. Noone is and will be. Friends think I am so perfect, nice and all. But I also have my bad side, once in a while. Which is not bad at one point. It depends on how you act and react. You can get mad. You can drop everything and quit. But you can also stay calm and let the storm pass. I remember my boss telling me that I should inhale and exhale and that I am doing a good job in keeping calm.  In my point of view everyone can live an almost perfect life, even if they have annoying, contr...
