Grateful

There are literally millions of people in this world who are suffering for different reasons like Hunger, War, Poverty, or Natural Calamities.

And because of that I'm very grateful for the things that I possessed as of the moment.

Five. Great Job that I enjoy a lot.

Four. Nice House

Three. Very few people that I consider as close friends.

Two. Good Health & not just me but my whole family.

One. I know that God is on my side.

I have always been the guy that can find joy in the simplest things & to have all 5 is more than I could ever ask for.

Counting our blessings is something that all of us should learn to do on a daily basis because even if we think we are having a hard life at this point in time, there are still a lot of people living on different parts of this world whose suffering is far greater than ours.

Do some reflecting today & think of things that you are grateful for.

Looking Back

They say that you need to live your life to the fullest since you will only live once & I couldn't agree more. 

But that doesn't mean that we need to try everything including the things that we know are bad for us. 

There should always be a limitation on what we can & can't do do dahil sabi nga nila lahat ng sobra masama.

I need to remind myself that... ALWAYS.

Because I don't want to look back on my life & have regrets on the things that I wasn't able to accomplish but COULD HAVE if I only took the chance.

Force Field

Relationship has always been tricky for me.

It takes a lot of time before I can open up to another person & once I do it scares me a lot.

Sabi nga kasi nila the only people that can hurt you are the ones that you love which I don't want to happened.

That's the reason why my defenses are always up, it's like having an impenetrable force field around me 24 hours a day.

But I'm working on it because I know that I can't shut myself in or shut other people out forever.

It wouldn't be right.

I'm not saying that I'll do a 360 degrees backflip & be friendly to everyone because that will never be my style.

All I'm saying is that NO MAN SHOULD EVER BE AN ISLAND & that includes me.

Oil & Water

Keisha: You're a bit old fashioned for my taste but I like you Gian.
Me: (silent then smiled) I just broke up with my ex girlfriend last December Keisha.
Keisha: So? Your not together anymore right? Unless you're still in love with her.
Me: No I'm not. I was actually the one who called it quits.
Keisha: Then there's no problem...
Me: (silent then smiled)

That's one of the many conversations that we had during our date last night. I guess she's kinda right that there's no reason for us not to be together or at least spend some time with each other.

It's just that I find the two of us too different which is probably a good thing depending on how I look at it. 

Anyway, I won't be making any decision yet since I have to know her better first before doing anything.

If we're meant to be together then it will happened eventually.

Facebook

I don't have a Facebook account, shocking right? Hehehe

Whenever people that I know asked me that question, I'm always amused with the reaction that I get after answering them :)

Is it too hard to believe that not everyone is into Facebook? I don't think so. 

I would rather surf websites, play online games, or watch a movie or series online than do the FB. 

I just find it too time consuming lang but then again to each his own naman :) so one can do whatever he pleases.

Anxious

I have been anxious ever since I woke up because of my date tonight with a girl in the office. I already mentioned her In my previous post, her name is Keisha. She is very pretty & known for being a little high maintenance (at least that's what I heard).

I've dated a few girls like that in the past & sure I had fun going out with them but it didn't last so I'm wondering if this is even worth pursuing.

On the other hand what if she's the one that I'm waiting for? Should I just give up without trying first? HELL NO!
