Insights --thanks ms. hannah!

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
True! but there are things that makes life worth living for.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
Or check the surrounding first, you might step on 'something'. :)) seriously, ask a friend (that you trust) to accompany you, hold each others hands and take the next step. It will help you erase the doubts.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
I agree! so instead of hating anyone, just erase them completely out of your life. That way, your world will be more happy and colorful!  

4. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
Well, sometimes, I'm guilty! hehe! Can't help it especially if the situation requires you to be serious. But when I'm okay, I'm happy.  

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
This is not applicable for me, why? because I don't have any credit cards at all!

6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
Ah.. Err.. oh well. Sometimes I wanted to win an argument! But as you grow wiser (i prefer wiser than older) You understand the concept of acceptance and understanding then you'll realize that some things are not worth fighting for.

7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
I still prefer to cry alone at night.

8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.
For me, it's not okay to get angry with Him, though I am not the religious type of person, I am more of a spiritual person. We, as human, have to be humble for Him. We should accept that some things are not meant for us and some things are meant to be taken away from us, after all, that's life.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.
Though  I'm the kind of person who likes planning ahead, I must say that as of this moment, I haven't thought about it. I save money but its not exactly for my retirement.

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
I agree. Chocolates makes me happier.

11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
Everything has its own time. When there is already acceptance, forgiveness will follow. After all, no matter what you do, your past will always be part of your life.

12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.
We also get hurt and when you get hurt, you cry. Your children won't take it against you if they see you cry.

13. Don't compare your life to others'.
True! God made our life different from one another. We are all unique individuals. There might probably some similarities but there will always be something different and unique to you.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
And why does it have to be a secret anyway? there is something wrong with the "relationship" right?

15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
True. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. Proven correct! and thank God, He doesn't change.

16. Life is too short for long pity parties. Get busy living, or get busy dying. Correct! Correct! Per-fect!

17. You can get through anything if you stay put in today.

18. A writer writes. If you want to be a writer, write.

20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.

21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
So Filipino..but we have to change it. Make it: Everyday is special. Its like Live you life to the fullest!
 
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
So me. I plan things ahead but when I'm there, I go with the flow. *Though, i tag along my plans, it is usually handy!  

23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.

25. No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

Life goes on.

I practice it everyday.

Correct. Ask for forgiveness, ask for love, and ask for life!

You can't have all the attention so give way to those who need it most.
