IF i COULD LIVE MY LIFE AGAIN!

2005-08-09T08:04:00.000+08:00

If I could live my life again, I'd laugh at my misfortunes more and other people's predicaments less. Spend more time counting my blessings, less time scrutinizing my blemishes. If I could live my life again, I'd walk in the rain more without an umbrella and listen less to weather reports. I'd spend much more time outdoors in small towns and much less time in tall buildings and big cities. I'd eat more of everything healthy and delicious, less of everything each meal, saving enough on the bill to feed a starving child. If I could live my life again, I'd get more beach sand between my toes and less friction between myself and others. I'd take more long baths and fewer showers (I can't explain why I've always been in such a hurry to spend my time). I'd spend more time with old people and animals, less time with strangers at clubs and parties. I'd visit libraries, bookstores, and computer networks more and malls and movie theatres less. I'd give my spouse and child more tender touches and much less advice.If I could live my life again, I'd spend more time fully involved in the present moment, less time remembering and anticipating. I'd be more aware of my core values and life mission, and less concerned with the reasons why I might not measure up. I'd smile more, frown less. I'd express my feelings more, try less to impress my friends and neighbours. I'd forgive and ask forgiveness more, and curse my adversaries less - but most of all I'd be more spontaneous and active, less hesitant and subdued.
this is...IF I COULD EVER LIVE MY LIFE AGAIN!

For all the moms out there...

Who Else, But A Mother?
by: Linda Ellis

Who first loves and nurtures us
and takes care of every need,
as she accepts into her life
someone new to bathe and feed?

Who brags about accomplishments;
first teeth...first sounds...first smile
and makes every little thing that's done
seem important and worthwhile?

Who's been known to, after dark
enter a room and slowly creep
to bend and kiss the forehead
of a child fast asleep?

Who holds a hand while crossing
as she thoughtfully conveys
a reminder to her child
that he should always "look both ways?"

Who wipes peanut butter off a cheek
and crayon off the wall
and knots an untied shoelace
to avoid a likely fall?

Who watches the swift passing
of childhood years that she will mourn,
and remembers every small detail
about the day that child was born?

Who works the longest hours
without a vacation...or a check,
but accepts her payment in the form
of a hug around her neck?

Who never stops believing
even when others are in doubt
and defends the fact her child was "safe"
when the umpire calls him out!?

Who senses things just aren't right
and with the palm of her hand decrees
by placing it on her child's brow...
the fever's 101 degrees?

Who shares life's disappointments
and feels the pain of all the bruises
and delights in her child's winnings,
but offers solace when he loses?

Who realizes as the years pass by...
the further her child will roam
and who stays up late with worry
when that child isn't home?

Who tries to shield and protect
by showing courage...staying strong;
trying to set a good example
while her heart is breaking all along?

Who acts as a private tutor
as the years fall in succession
by taking each opportunity
to teach life's every lesson?

Who listens with her heart
even when her child is grown
and understands the feelings
that she once herself, had known?

Who saved old cards and letters
and kept pictures on the shelves
and offered unconditional love
so we could learn to love, ourselves?

This poem describes one person;
a woman unlike any other,
for who could possess that level of love...
Who Else, But A Mother?

Training

2005-08-03T21:45:00.000+08:00

training supposed to have started 3am but Jerome the trainer wasn't around so all we did was surf the web and did nonsense stuff because we had no choice but to stay in the office and finish a whole days shift since of course we get paid for that. (which is the sad part of it)
LJ and Emerson are busy answering the trivia questions Mike sent
Mike and I are surfing the web and
Charles is just alone staring at his computer, probably watching the oil sex video and could be playing with himself at the same time...har har har!
We were actually told that there's going to be somebody who will takeover while Jerome's not around but nobody came. so, we all REJOICED!! But on the other hand it wasn't really that good since we are already three days behind with our lessons about the undying AT&T account.
None of us dared to call the training department to inform them that we didn't have a trainer. It's past 6am and we just finished our first break. For the next couple of hours we'll probably find ourselves counting the strands of our hair because of boredome inside the training room. (sigh!)

far away

2005-08-03T04:43:00.000+08:00

it's hard being so far away from you
but just knowing we'll be together soon
if only for a little while
helps make the distance seem somehow less
and reminds us that it won't always be like this
One day, we'll be holding each other close
and know that it's not just a dream or a visit that always ends too soon
Until that day comes..I'll be counting the days that we're together again
Then, we will cherish the times we shared
and it will be as though we were never apart!

Asus....malungkot lang ba ako?
