Everything is Coincidental but always Exceptional!

** I don't know better**

Opportunity is a tricky thing. It always is coincidental or unprecedented but always exceptional! Always a companion of uncertainty and fear. We are faced with life changing situations almost everyday. A call from work, a proposal from another company, an email or even a simple "hey have you heard..." Ignoring most of them will be our initial response until the moment of "SAYANG". One of the frequent lines Filipinos are fond off including "Mamaya na", "Palibre", and others...

The road less travelled! A line that best describes what we don't do. We set goals that we strive so hard to accomplish that we forego the things that we really should be aiming for. We aim for the stars and yet we haven't even seen the moon! We try so hard to shout that we forget the sounds of our own voice. Last thing you know you achieved everything you wished for yet you still feel incomplete and unsatisfied.

Satisfaction is really the culmination of one's life here on earth! FIND IT and you can really say that you lived a life worth living. We wake up each day looking for that satisfaction, for that one thing that can truly make us HAPPY. Then again, the human race is and always was the epitome of the "Insatiable Nature". A description that both scientist and theologist both agree to be true! We always strive to improve, create goals that will exceed others, and do things that can overcome boundaries. We create, we nurture and we adapt. In the end, a constant cycle of change and dynamism.

We end up trying to live in a world where chaos/change is in charge and order/balance act like a beautiful consequence. Resulting to "Ok na yan!", "buti nga meron pa eh!", "hay sa wakas! tapos na" and other phrases that signify "fake satisfaction" --> Contentment without control.

Our own Freedom that masks our own chains within a culture that hinders us from experiencing SATISFACTION. We plan for the future but forget to ACT NOW! We dream yet we live out a nightmare. Ignoring everything and acknowledging nothing.

Why not start being happy today and just LIVE? :D We may never find the satisfaction we are looking for but at least we live a life where in we can say "I WAS HAPPY!" and not a life of "I WISH I WAS HAPPY?"

IKAW MASAYA KA BA?
