Wisdom #11: Tolerate

Sometimes you meet people who don't have anything in common with you.

You don't agree with their perspectives
You can't see why they choose to do things that way
Honestly, you don't even understand what they're saying

But world doesn't come with a uniform. It doesn't meant to have only one solid color. Rainbow is there for a reason :)

And sometimes you just have to nod and smile--without trying to understand--and love them for who they are.

Konfidential Kommand

If it's worth it


Then FIGHT


{ silence isn't always gold }
{ sometimes it is plain yellow }
Now that I've got haters and exes,
 I can't afford to look ugly

Wisdom #10: Trustworthy People (10 Things)

  • 1. Because trust is based on truth, trustworthy people must be truthful.
Trustworthy people know that it's not enough to possess a truth; the truth must possess them. What is a common result when we learn that someone has lied to us? Whatever he or she says after that may be suspected of being false, however true it may be. Likewise, lies defended as white cannot always be easily dismissed. What we perceive as harmless or even beneficial may not be so in the eyes of the deceived.
  • 2. Trustworthy people are honest.
They match their words and feelings with their thoughts and actions. They do not think one thing and speak another. When we bad mouth people behind their back and sweet-talk them to their face, we undermine trust. Trustworthy people do not take what belongs to others, whether it is ideas, statements, credit or possessions, without their permission. They share successes by giving credit where credit is due. In addition to being honest themselves, trustworthy people strive to keep their associates honest by communication and constructive dialogue.
  • 3. Trustworthy people are reliable; they keep their promises.
Their "yes" means yes, and their "no" means no. They honor their commitments. This includes keeping appointments, whether they are with clients, colleagues, sales personnel or family members. Few things inspire trust in another sooner than punctuality. You might as well steal another's money as their time. 

Wisdom #9: Trust



Dumb & dumbers trust people more than they trust themselves.


Have you ever had a friend who is only there when you're happy? When things are good? When you can give everything she wants?

Or maybe you dated someone like that, you gave your heart, you shared everything: even your deepest secrets.


And they hurt you. They really hurt you.

But you gave them another chance, because you believe them.

And they hurt you. They really hurt you.

But you gave them another chance, because you believe them.

Well, basically the cycle goes ...

Wisdom #8: People

are like rocks. I think I read about it once.

Some you shouldn't grab. Some you shouldn't hold.

But some are like diamonds, you need to give them a little help, a little love, a little moment, so they can turn out beautiful for you :)


Monday

HAPPINESS is when
what you think,
what you say,
what  you do,
are in HARMONY.

I forgot who said that, but this should do it for the backstabbers :p
Sometimes you have to be your own hero.
just because something isn't happening for you right now
doesn't mean that it will never happen.
The sun is up,
 the sky is blue
They're beautiful,
and so are you.

Wisdom #7: Roads

For me, life is a road. It is a journey one has to take, even if he tries not to, the universe will set him up for an adventure.

Adventure. I love how the word sounds.

But there is more than just an adventure when it comes to life. You have responsibilities, that's for sure. You have plans, and dreams, and expectations.

And sometimes you find yourself standing at a crossroad, battling with your own mind. Where to go? This way, or that way? Sometimes, you wish someone can take your rights to choose and choose the right road for you. I know I did :p

But that is not the point. It is the experience, that little feeling you have when you said to yourself, "Let's go that way." and proving your guess. Is it a right or a wrong road you just chose?

And do you know the most interesting part about all of this?


Sometimes you have to take your wrong road first, because that is the one that leads you to

the right road

Wisdom #6: Love Life


I hope when you're reading this you would answer, "I already am!" If that's true, then I'm so happy for you! :)
While me, well, I'm still trying :p Sometimes it's a piece of cake, but there are some days when I just hope I can get back to bed and sleep for a year :(


The most common reason in my case is when I put too much pressure on myself. This can be anything, from waking up earlier to taking more classes just to prove to nobody that I can do it. And the activity usually tires me, that way I get cranky, and well, I usually ended up lower from where I started.

Pushing yourself to try a liiiiiittle bit harder can look so powerful sometimes, but when you keep doing it, it means that you're not giving your body and mental a rest that they really need. And it's not good.

It makes you forget your main point and kind of blurs almost everything from the long-term picture.

So, what I learned from this mistake of mine, is when you're literally crying for a break, just give yourself that break. Have some fun, do crazy things, be young, be merry. Even if you're six or ninety.

Because at the end, what you're chasing after, that thing you would give everything to have, can only be found in the street where it lives, and it's the Happiness Street :)



Sometimes people who's always been there for anyone else needs to be there for themselves.

Be yourself, everyone else is taken.
