This post shall be one for us to learn and reboot ourselves k! Quotes keep me going, what about u?:D
I personally define quotes as strings of powerful words that is motivational and often a constant reminder of the simplest logic in life that we fail to see or understand in times of distress.
I am not one who open up myself easily to share with others my problems although i do love to share with others my joy. I know this is not a good thing, but well, when i am feeling low, I'll just google and read some quotes. YEA MAN.
They tell me how awesome my life is and that despite the many small waves that keep pushing me offshore, if I dont give up, i'll definitely be able to swim back to land. Heehee simple analogy right?
Yep thats the key, think simple, be satisfied. Thats my life motto:) Just like my dad, happy go lucky, but still happy right? Some may say that such an aimless life without major goals to work towards is meaningless. HOwever its not that we dont work towards anything, just that the things that we want are within our reach, not always within our comfort zone, but something that easily satisfies. Like, a simple meal together as a family, a chit chat with an old friend, being someone whom people will feel comfortable to confide in, and even extending a helping hand to a stranger. These may sound obiang, but i feel that a lot of people nowadays are too ambitious and thirsty for achievements that they lose themselves, and neglect the important people and things around them.
Dont get me wrong, i am not encouraging people to give up on their dreams, and just sit back and relax and be satisfied with life. The main point is not to compare yourself too often with someone greater as u'll end up feeling miserable. No big apartment to live in, no family car, never take aeroplane before? Its alright, count your blessings and not count other people's.
Being satisfied, other than referring to the the current moment, alot of this satisfaction is also derived from fragments of the past. Memories play an important part of my life:) Although i wish moments like those never went away, we all know that time never stop for us. That is when i'll think of this quote:
"Dont cry because it's over, smile because it happened." :)
So keep running! Chase for more wonderful and unforgetful moments to share with significant people in your life:D
Love,
Joy
