It took me sometime, a lot of
book reading, a lot of movie watching and whole lot of prayers and constantly
communicating to our God to get to where I am now. Positivity, peace and love are what I long
now. I may not be as rich as I what I wanted to be… but I believe I’m at peace
now with myself and with a lot of factors and people in my life…
It all started with my relationship
with clouds... For quite some time now I’ve been posting pictures of clouds n
in my instagram account... Weird as what people will see it, but I love staring
at clouds. How peaceful they are and how their white color loaded the sky with
weird shapes as if they don’t care being there. ;) Day after day I keep on
staring at clouds for I believe they are formed to be there for valid reasons.
After each day I tend to appreciate things below, the trees below each cloud,
mountains, buildings, cars and all. Truly I’m an appreciative person, but I
become more after that exercise.
I came to realize that we have a
lot of reasons to thank God for. That
our world doesn’t just center into our petty concerns but we are just a small
entity of the world. That they are a lot of things in the world that needs the
same way we need, who needs appreciation more than us humans.
That realization help me a lot
that living is not just about making money, it’s not about catching deadlines,
making your client satisfied, paying bills, doing your task and others. It’s about living with appreciating... Its
living knowing that no matter how hard you run, there are just certain things
that you can’t catch up to , there are things that we just have to live and
take.
Running in UPLB has been a
routine to me. Sometimes I run with my love, sometimes I just do my work out in
the field… truly I appreciate the beauty of nature while working but one day, I
did not run, nor did I work, I just
walk and take some pictures in the
routine place I’m visiting weekly.
Walking as if I don’t worry about the time, people waiting, and messages
in my phone (Believe me its liberating to leave your phone once in a while).
Taking pictures of what I find beauty in my eyes. After that walked, I never appreciate the
place same way that I did in that day, and loving what I’m doing that gives me
peace in my heart and smile at my face.
Excited to do that again next time... hopefully I’ll get to do that with
someone or another place that I frequently visiting but not appreciating…
How about you, when was the last
time you started walking instead of running….
