LOVE

The Cow, the bird, the cat..and the Shit.

I got this story from an SMS message that a good friend of mine sent. It was really moving and pretty funny as well. Check this out!

A little bird was flying in the midst of winter. He suddenly froze and fell down. A cow approached the bird and dropped a load of shit on him. The stuff was warm and the bird began to sing for joy. A cat came fast when he heard that the bird was chirping. He quickly dug the bird out and ate it in just one gulp.

Moral of the story:

1. Not everyone who drops a load of shit on you is your enemy.
2. Not everyone who digs you out the shit you are at is your friend.
3. When you are in deep shit, just shut the hell up and work your way out.

Closing Cycles

I got this one from a very important person to me. Hope everyone would like it.

Closing Cycles

By Paolo Coelho

One always has to know when a stage comes to an end.

If we insist on staying longer than the necessary

time, we lose the happiness and the meaning of the

other stages we have to go through. Closing cycles,

shutting doors, ending chapters whatever name we

give it, what matters is to leave in the past the

moments of life that have finished.

Did you lose your job? Has a loving relationship come

to an end? Did you leave your parents’ house? Gone to

live abroad? Has a long-lasting friendship ended all

of a sudden?

You can spend a long time wondering why this has

happened. You can tell yourself you won’t take

another step until you find out why certain things that were

so important and so solid in your life have turned

into dust, just like that.

But such an attitude will be awfully stressing for

everyone involved: your parents, your husband or

wife, your friends, your children, your sister, everyone

will be finishing chapters, turning over new leaves,

getting on with life, and they will all feel bad

seeing you at a standstill.

None of us can be in the present and the past at the

same time, not even when we try to understand the

things that happen to us. What has passed will not

return: we cannot for ever be children, late

adolescents, sons that feel guilt or rancor towards

our parents, lovers who day and night relive an

affair with someone who has gone away and has not the least

intention of coming back.

Things pass, and the best we can do is to let them

really go away.

That is why it is so important (however painful it

may be!) to destroy souvenirs, move, give lots of things

away to orphanages, sell or donate the books you have

at home. Everything in this visible world is a

manifestation of the invisible world, of what is

going on in our hearts and getting rid of certain memories

also means making some room for other memories to

take their place.

Let things go. Release them. Detach yourself from

them. Nobody plays this life with marked cards, so

sometimes we win and sometimes we lose. Do not expect

anything in return, do not expect your efforts to be

appreciated, your genius to be discovered, your love

to be understood. Stop turning on your emotional

television to watch the same program over and over

again, the one that shows how much you suffered from

a certain loss: that is only poisoning you, nothing else.

Nothing is more dangerous than not accepting love

relationships that are broken off, work that is

promised but there is no starting date, decisions

that are always put off waiting for the ideal moment.

Before a new chapter is begun, the old one has to be

finished: tell yourself that what has passed will

never come back. Remember that there was a time when

you could live without that thing or that person

nothing is irreplaceable, a habit is not a need. This

may sound so obvious, it may even be difficult, but

it is very important.

Closing cycles. Not because of pride, incapacity or

arrogance, but simply because that no longer fits

your life. Shut the door, change the record, clean the

house, shake off the dust.

Stop being who you were, and change into who you are.

Film: The Ex

We just finished watching “The Ex” and we came to a conclusion that this movie is a must see. The movie depicts the story of an ordinary guy who could not get a hold of a steady job. He got fired and was forced to take the job that his father – in – law offered. When he got the job, horrible things started to happen especially when he met his wife’s ex-boyfriend, Chip. He was a menace and made Tom’s life a complete picture of sorrow and misery.

In the end, it was love that conquered all. It was a classic tale of how a typical man captured the heart of a woman. All he had to do was be himself and do his best. No extras. No lies. Just love.

Alone

Have you ever felt alone and overshadowed by darkness due to a lost love? You may have given it your best shot but you still feel that you are at the losing end. This feeling is dreadful. So dreadful that it may affect the way that you interact with others and sadly, love may turn into hatred.

If you are having this kind of problem, feel free to confide. I’ll answer as soon as I can.

Love…
