Acceptance

0

© www.goodreads.com   

    There are a lot of reasons why we came out different, with different personalities, beliefs, preferences and even opinions. We never meet people that share the exact thoughts as we do, there's always a conflict, have it a desirable one or simply an undesirable one.


    There's one pitfall most people fall into though, they simply fail to acknowledge the fact that we are actually different than one another for a reason. Imagine living in a world where everyone thinks the same way, everyone follows the same beliefs, same way of behaviour etc. That means the world is populated with infinite clones of one person and one person only. How boring is that going to be?

    Living with no arguments, no challenges , and no contradictions. That's not it. However, people should learn to accept where others come from, what they have to say and what they think. They can be on the same page, and they can be on completely different pages but still maintain that smooth talk where one will eventually outgrow the other, or when both of them accept what the other has to say but still to what they know.

    Eventually, it all goes down to what you want to do, whether its the pleasure of listening to what other have to say or simply put in all your effort to start an argument out of nothing.

    The best part of being different is merely having different preferences and hobbies. We do meet people that share the same hobby, but believe it or not, they're also different. How is that possible? It just is. People that share the same hobby, share the same concept because they both enjoy practising a certain activity, however, they do it for a different purpose. Some people are paid to take pictures, it's their source of living. Others simply find mental peace as they capture moments they only can see. See, it's the same activity, but the motives differ. That's pretty fascinating. 

    Being different isn't something to be ashamed off, it's to be proud of. Once you accept the fact that we're all different in our own way, then life will open up marvellous doors. You'll get to meet new people, people from literally the other side of the globe. You'd get to communicate with people that share the same date of birth as you are and feel creepy about that for some reason. You'll get the chance to strongly point in your thoughts while you accept others and find support to what you're trying to point out.  That's what life is all about. 

    If you came to accept that, then you're going to experience a whole different side of life you were this close of missing out on.

The nice person she always was

"Life is filled with ups and downs, regardless of how happy, or how sad you currently are. That is why you should always be thankful to God - Just keep that in mind" Echo Bliss



It has always been like this for her but she never took it to heart. She thought she was doing good because that's how she was raised and that was how she really was...by god's nature..she was just like that. The good thing about it is that she actually accepted herself because she was who she was.

How can a person live happily ever after if he/she is not very satisfied with who he/she is? That's just a waste of time to live like that isn't it? For her it was not a waste of time because she always accepted herself, but what she detested the most was being taken advantage of.

That was a human trait that hurt most of them, especially her. 

Why would they do that..she would think to herself.

Was it really worth the time...she would regret.

Eventually it was time for her to put an end to it because nothing lasts forever. She knew she'd hear hurtful statements but she didn't care. It was just like the having the words come through an ear and leave the other with no impact whatsoever because she was living to satisfy herself and not satisfy them. They have themselves to satisfy she was held responsible about herself and no one else. 

That is how..she finally decided to live and the people that really care will understand and support her to be who she really is.

Blessed.

"A good start is never a good one unless you make it," - Echo Bliss



I was planning on posting this a week ago, but I thought it wouldn’t make any sense to write about “nothing”. Basically now that it’s been 2 weeks in the semester I thought a few interesting moments came about.

Everyone always says, students don’t take things seriously or they tend to procrastinate a lot. Well, as a matter of fact that is sort of true but at the same time you shouldn’t be generalising that fact on literally “ all students. This idea has always been a matter of discussion for me and I began to classify it as a “human-nature” trait because I had no other listing for it. Well of course not all people are the same but at the same time, you always go with the general public right.

Anyways on with the post, so this professor the other day impressed me with the way he respects time. It was an 8 A.M class and I’m usually in class about 15 minutes before or so, so he was a few minutes before class as well and to kill time he began reading his newspaper. Once it hit 8.00 A.M, he said:

“It’s time to start,and I do have to respect you’re arrival on time”

No one has ever said that and I’m already in my 4th year. That really made me feel , I don’t know very well respected. Instructors are always late, ad by always I literally mean always, and they always bug us for being late (not that I have) but why can’t it be the other way round. Well if it were then there will be no respect for the instructor right. It’s a complicated game I guess.

To keep this short and neat, I have a great feeling about this semester, thanks to the instructor that valued our attendance.

Different Perspectives

0

My photography during our Winter Break family vacation



Back where I live, it rained heavily this morning. Quite surprising since it's actually summer and the weather for the past couple days was really windy. No objections of course, I'm just saying.

We humans have no control on the weather, we're just good enough in coming up with conclusions and always blaming mother nature.

Anyways back to the point of this post.

Like I mentioned earlier, it rained. I saw it as a gift from god and a blessing,others saw it as something scary, well some of us do fear the sound of thunder, but I actually liked it as much as it scares me a bit. Let's not forget the fact that it's Friday, the blessed day to us So this adds as a positive point to me at least.


As people with different beliefs, we see rain for example differently. As I'm typing this, it's raining heavily in Singapore, it always rains there. But back here, rain is not our best friend well as geographers would explain it as " Being on the Equator makes this country very hard" I do not believe that at all, well I do to some extent but I believe there is another reason to that. Some of you might not agree with my reasoning, but that's ok because just like the title implies "Different Perspectives" . I'm very fond of that idea to be honest, it makes me enjoy talking to people from all around this globe, different people living in different areas, experiencing different problems and different beliefs...it makes me really curious about their backgrounds, their beliefs and all the things like that.

I'm trying to keep this post as short as possible, whoever is reading it right now might be a little lost I assume, because I'm just spilling out what my mind decides to throw away.

Thank you for taking the time and relating to this! :)
