Christmas...24 days left!

 
 As I grow older and busier. Christmas started to lose its magic for me.No longer did carols make me giddy and Christmas lights seem like an ordinary thing within the city.Ticking off my shopping list had become a chore akin to paying my monthly bills.

 I remember how I reacted when I found out our house decked with lights; I got annoyed with flickering lights, thinking of how much our electric bill would cost. I caught myself mid-thought and frowned. Had I become such a bitch? So I promised this year that I will try my best to take time out to live a little.

 I wish everyone that we may find some time in our busy social, work and family schedules to sit back, relax and appreciate what we worked hard to gain- be it success, serenity, a little luxury or security.  It’s easy to get caught up in hectic calendars and responsibilities, but note that it takes crucial moments of stillness to make everything worthwhile.

    I remember the first time my mom told me that Santa Claus doesn't really exists, it blows my mind away as a kid and it destroys the spirit of Christmas, but as I grew up I realized that the real essence of Christmas is the Birthday Celebrant Himself and His gift of Life!

Single...love!

I have spent a significant portion of my life watching sappy romantic movies with ideal couple with guaranteed happy ending is such magical thou expected. I know this is terrible but there is something about them that just seem slightly attainable and relatable to our own life. Not all of us have been assigned a Mcdreamy in this lifetime. Yes! I still have a huge crush with Derek Christopher Shepher of Grey's Anatomy. I’m sorry guys. So you’re single because you’re single. It’s not because you weird, fat or you dress like out of nowhere or it’s not because you did not promptly follow the love chain letter instructions that you have to send it to 20 people close to you. You’re not single because your standards are way too high.

Laugh and Live

To avoid the misconception that our problems are permanent, is to laugh at them. Just throw your head back and laugh in the face of fear and in the midst of struggle. Life is serious enough without you having to be serious about it. One of the greatest aspects of being alive is play. without exception, people need play. People whose live are lopsided with work have a lack of appreciation for play. Thinking their lives are serous business. they give up play too readily. They think they cannot afford time away from work and chores. Instead, they grind away, insisting that staying alive means work and rest in an ending cycle. When we're laughing, I think we're learning. It opens our minds up and makes us more creative and innovative. It helps us to view our challenges from a unique perspective. When you laugh and you play, you are having the moment-to moment experience of you at your best. Doing such activities is  a gift to yourself. You're nurturing yourself with the same ...
