Who Are We: Seeing Ourselves through the Eyes of One Another

The method we internally converse with ourselves determines how we see people, not how they see us. Nonetheless, it helps us to understand how they think. It also makes us relate to the scene with a realistic acumen, and therefore, empathize.

Why Things Happen

Things happen for a reason, including those we have no clue why they occurred.

Who Are We: Seeing Ourselves through the Eyes of One Another

Understanding who we are is a concern that entails seeing ourselves through the eyes one another. It is a philosophy that involves thoughtfulness of the full picture -- an empathetic vision that incorporates the nature of our awareness. That perception leads to how we react and interact with our surroundings. There, we’d utilize not only our rationale but also how we reason a variety of basics. Those fundamentals are foundations that incorporate our backgrounds, beliefs, affiliations, the level of our knowledge, and whom we believe we are, to name a few. We could accomplish an appropriate vision via a correct observation that considers all the elements. It is a foresight that requires a thorough analysis, and that’s what this book is all about.

A Glimpse of Hope

A day of light is a flare of joy instilled in our hearts,

An ingrained delight throughout our lives...

A day of gloom is a glance of sulk we leave behind,

Regardless how things just might...

A glimpse of hope we see ahead,

Although things could go otherwise,

That's how play,

And it's how we roll,

All the time,

We do have hope.

Those Who Dream

Those who dream have a right to live, and those who don't have that right too.

Those who read can also write, and those who don't can write too.

Those who dwell shouldn't be weeping, for it's a shadow we all go through.

In each of us we see them, and in them we can see you.

A mixture of emotions is what gets us, they always matter when they're due.

The Author within Us

There’s an author within each of us. It's what we say. Sometimes we write it, other times we let it go. Everyone hears us and note it in their head. That’s how they read us, and that’s how we share. Our thoughts are what make us, yet we make our thoughts. Sometimes we keep between us, yet that's to keep the peace. We live and care. That’s why we share. It may be love, or at least we'd hope so. Sometimes we go in circles, or what it seems like right now. So, we'll stop, put the pen down. We said what we had to say. Peace out and God bless.

There's a Place

There’s a place where we sit together. It’s in our minds. We talk and wonder, and then get back to ourselves. There’s a place we meet at. It’s in our hearts. We prosper and mingle. There we know the meaning of life. Both places are within us. They're the way we live. Sometimes we make it real and enjoy life, other times we keep it virtual and share the love. What matters is peace. We spread it from here. Best regards and all the love. Peace.

A Thought

When we were young,
The world was like...
But now we've grown,
And it's only...
Am I blind,
Or we're starting to see...
I hope you'd know,
Exactly what I mean,
At least we wonder,
So now we've come clean.

Happy Memorial Day

Yes, it is a happy day. The happiness of it comes from remembrance. Those who gave it all haven't been forgotten. So, we remember and celebrate.

How do we celebrate though? That form has changed throughout the years, and so did its relevant fashion. Remembrance began to take a different shape. However, we still remember, and that is what remained. No one has been forgotten or will ever be.

Every nation has a similar memorial occasion. Every nation also has those whom they cherish deep in the heart and mind. As such, it is a principle of humanity people commemorate everywhere.

What's stunning nowadays is when humanity runs a fight against its own. We'd begin to wonder what we're really celebrating. So we pray, Lord, please have mercy. We have become borderline sinners. Your utmost glory we beg for the best of us all.

It is Memorial Day, and that is a day of honor. A day of integrity and dignity all-in-one. So we remember. We couldn't have forgotten even if we tried. It lives within us, so we continue the path and hope things get better.

Please stay safe and celebrate wisely. It is also a day to cherish next year how we celebrated the year before rather than -God forbid- weep as we remember when so-and-so used to be amongst us.

Truth be told, and truths are sometimes harsh. They need to be stated bluntly, so one would read, heed and know. At least, they'd be alert when something comes up.

Happy Memorial Day. Please celebrate and appreciate, reminisce and be safe. Remember and be pious. It's all in faith. Our piety lives on because it lives within us.

May God bless. Please, excuse my lengthy journal. Peace and all the best.

Talking About Nothing

Have you ever had such experience? I'm sure we all had. You'd spend hours and hours talking about anything and everything, yet it's nothing in specific. People get interested and are somehow drawn into your topics, and then they leave.

Someone would ask,
- So where have you been?
- Talking to so-and-so.
- For that long?
- We go carried away.
- Talking about what?
- Nothing really.
- Are you telling the truth?
- Of course, I am.
- Hmm.. that's interesting.

So sometimes we talk and just talk a lot, yet we're really saying nothing and everything at the same time. Sometimes we call it nothing, but this "nothing" occupies our time and we really enjoy it.

People give different values to different things according to how they get drawn into them. Everything eventually has a value to varying extents. It is our perception that guides our path on a daily basis, and that is the name of our story.

To each is their views in life, and that the new book that I am writing right now. I'll keep you posted, and I look forward to your kind feedback. It's participation that makes a difference, and that is our best form of sharing.

All the best. Best regards, and may God bless!
