Have a break!

It feels so good to be thought of as special in the eyes of our loved ones, and provides a temporary boost to the ego. A simple reason why more often than not, we forget ourselves for the sake of our loved ones, but in the end when we can no longer afford to do something more for them, to feel important, to feel needed then this is the time we realize that we have been neglecting ourselves for too long. Oftentimes, we fulfill our purpose in life but unfulfilled to live our lives to the fullest. We're dying to earn lots of money to provide our loved ones a better quality of life; but in the process, it's slowly killing us till we find ourselves inside a coffin ... unhappy... discontented. And not because, we're no longer on earth but because we didn't do so much for ourselves ... to have a break ... to appreciate and enjoy each day while we're still alive.

"Courageous--that's how you see me; Successful--that's how you believe in me; Happy--that's what you expect of me; but... Emptiness--that's what is inside of me."
(An excerpt from quotes about emptiness)

Wednesday

Wednesday is the third day of the week,
A very special day to spend with Mama Mary,
A perfect day to honor Her and to pray for all our needs,
A glorious day to express gratitude…
For answered prayers,
A thanksgiving day to praise God...
For all the blessings.

Chance of a Lifetime

People tend to see things the way they wanted it to see,
And taking things for granted is their expertise,
So when the opportune time to grab the chance has come and goes,
Without knowing what they fail to win,
Then, the one and only word they could utter a million times is “If;”

So many "If's" that can’t bring back some important things,
The lost times and all those lost moments of happiness,
The chance of a lifetime is now long gone,
If only they spend time thinking about,“what might have been?”
They won’t feel sorry for themselves,
And now, emptiness is dwelling in their heart.
