What has life to offer ...

Haven't you noticed how life weave its cycle? At first, you were born, playing it smooth and wish to grow up fast; then you spent more than ten years of your life for education, dealing obstacles with determination; then here comes work to stay all for a lifetime. We seem to live in order to work and not to work in order to live. But with all these options, life has offered us nothing but work. Yes, reality bites, that is why we always try to look at its sunny side, because life's reality sucks. And then, we wish we never grew up whenever we hear the laughter of children that tell us how light and smooth the life we once had. Life that we wish to leave because the grass seems greener on the adult's side. So, after all of these, we marry, have children, and so we must work harder and harder for them for this is what life has to offer. Now, are we just like little children who wish to leave this part of life fast? Then life seems greener on death's side... if that's what you call 'life after death'.

Life's A Piece of Cake

When my boss told me that I, alone, will be going to Tokyo with her for the system integration of our project, honestly, I got worried. At that time, its just about a month since I was assigned to that project, and though I was able to familiarize its technology quickly, still it was hard for me to understand all of its functionalities. But now, I just arrived from Tokyo, safe and sound, and fulfilled. The hardest challenge as I thought it would be had turned out to be just a walk in a park. Sure it was tough but it made me tougher. Again, I am reminded, that no matter how we think life would be that hard, with God's help, life is just a piece of cake. So let's enjoy it.
