Blessings over Distress for Years

There are too much things to thank for. For years, there are
people who put you to hell. But who cares when one day you woke up when there
were people who tried hard enough to fight for you and have tried to put a
smile back to your face. So sad, that all these were hidden. Unfortunately, it
was otherwise that were slapped to your face. Yet you know, it does not change
your belief that you are still one of the, if not the, best of Asian arts.

And you say, it does not matter! Everything has a reason and
everything leads to destiny. Despite the odds, you know you are not someone to
give up the goodness of life. And more than anything, you are not someone to
give up the thought that there is God, no matter what, not to mention you have
felt it to your bones how He loves you so much.

A few more days and you know that you have ended the year with success
once again. Things could have been better without this orchestration to hit you
left and right but what else can you do if they have already did and they
enjoyed doing so, in fact. They have strived enough to not just make you an
affordable art but a cheap craft. Amid of all these, your thoughts are
pre-occupied of how to be better when it comes to your health situation, how to
cope with work, how to earn more, what and where to invest, making oneself to
look at least slightly pleasing once again, and bring back the son to your
loving and warm embrace. It was a beautiful year for you. No matter what the
people do to drag you down, it is always your clear conscience that matters,
your will to survive, your unending faith, your zest for life, and your wild
fantasy of having that someone in your life.

It is good to know that in the middle of ugly situations,
you have done your part to serve the people and to show your faith to God. Now
and hopefully, in the years to come, it is going to be you and the angel sent
by God under your care who needs your focus in achieving betterment, in all
aspects.

You deserve it, after all! Life
is about moving forward. God loves people who value their lives. Hatred is
inevitable, most especially when there are people who are continuously
harassing you subtly or blatantly. But then God will help you survive them.
He’d understand the rage within when He knows you by heart that it is only goodness
along with good life that you have aimed for ever since you were a child. And
yes, once again you will be the best of Asian art!

Online Relationship

Having online friends are fun. These are friends, most of
the time, who are not physically in touched with you. You have no idea of
whether you will meet them in person or not, but this does not matter anymore.
Having sincere relationship of friendships over the net is just simply amazing.
Most of the time, its beauty cannot be fathomed when chosen as a subject for
wall painting.

It is nice to connect to the world and make friends with
people and love them as your own despite distance. It feels good to be with
them when they need you. And you can be sure too that you have them when you
are in distress. If things get better, friendship can even go beyond. This is not
impossible knowing that you know some people who have connected their lives via
internet. Friendship goes romantic and before you know it, they are already
starting a family. It may feel very uncomfortable at first. But sincerity of
each party can be felt and can be shown in many ways. Many have been a witness
to such progress of relationship and many can attest to the beauty of the
reality of online romance. At first, you could be discussing which affordable
art that you see together online is better to get. Then, as moments flow, you
already both feel that there are already subtle expressions of love. However,
the challenge is over coping with the difference in culture. American lifestyle
is almost universal. Asians can easily understand Americans as to how they
live.

This is because TV shows all
throughout the globe are all about one’s respective channel and Hollywood. But
how about if we speak of two different cultures in one big umbrella like Asia?
We know Asia to be culture-enriched. Diversity of traditions and practices can
be extreme from one end to the other. There’s where the challenge might come
from. How can two people who fell in love via the internet adapt to each
other’s culture? Culture, as we know, shapes the behaviour of the individuals in
so many ways. Yet despite the odds, many Asian interracial marriages have coped
well.

Who knows what to expect online when you are supposed
to be just eyeing for an affordable art, a precious original oil painting
landed to your lap! But then, the key is not to assume anything beyond
friendship not unless courtship is clearly stated. Otherwise, things can be a
bit confusing. Somehow, online relationship is still different from
relationship where two people see each other not via webcam. Aside from this,
online relationship which goes beyond friendship is even more complicated than
long distance relationship.

Be Young as you Grow

As you grow older, things become complicated when before
during your youth, no matter how complicated things seem for others, as for you,
it was just simple, ordinary, and something like what people know of--- it is
life. You look at abstract wall painting as how your eyes perceive it. Simply
put, it was a waste of time to dig deeper when every second given to you is
just fantastic.

As you grow older, you began to think just as how adults
think—the how to’s what if’s, and then what?- then you realize, whatever
situation you are in, it is always complicated.
And you remember your youth, it is all about your heart that mattered.
Whatever it dictated, you just went for it without inhibition. You knew your
limitations, though. You knew what is right from what is wrong. As long as your
move would not be at the expense of other people, you went ahead to actualize
what your heart dictates. And everything else was so simple. And because of
this, there were more achievements that were highly satisfying during the past
years. It seemed then that you had the power to do anything. Your faith and
your belief in oneself are too much that they could surpass any challenge that
came your way back then. And because there were adults to make you realize the
consequences and constantly instilling fear on you and the possibility of
frustration , all led you to thoughts that all possible outcomes of anything
you do can be devastating, most of the time. Then you realize, this is where
the cliché’ of “Youth is the hope of the nation” is based from. You realize
that adults see the unnecessary details of a landscape painting and interpret
the relevant ones in a way that will make the art complicated.
And yes, as you grow older, you also realize how it is
necessary to be youthful in your mind.---

Never stop being creative. Never stop from believing in what your heart
dictates. And you learn that not all things should be governed by reason. There
is what you call heightened spirituality. There is what you call intuition.
There is what we call trust in oneself that you are to submit to a higher
entity which governs all matters, big and small, and which all collaborate for
your sake.
