The purpose of our lives is to be happy - Dalai Lama
In order to carry a positive action we must develop here a positive vision.
When you are discontent, you always want more, more, more. Your desire can never be satisfied. But when you practice contentment, you can say to yourself, 'Oh yes - I already have everything that I really need.
Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come.
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.
Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

The Egg
By: Andy Weir
You were on your way home when you
died.
It was a car accident. Nothing
particularly remarkable, but fatal nonetheless. You left behind a wife and two
children. It was a painless death. The EMTs tried
their best to save you, but to no avail. Your body was so utterly shattered you
were better off, trust me.
And that’s when you met me.
“What… what happened?” You asked.
“Where am I?”
“You died,” I said,
matter-of-factly. No point in mincing words.
“There was a… a truck and it was
skidding…”
“Yup,” I said.
“I… I died?”
“Yup. But don’t feel bad about it.
Everyone dies,” I said.
You looked around. There was
nothingness. Just you and me. “What is this place?” You asked. “Is this the
afterlife?”
“More or less,” I said.
“Are you god?” You asked.
“Yup,” I replied. “I’m God.”
“My kids… my wife,” you said.
“What about them?”
“Will they be all right?”
“That’s what I like to see,” I
said. “You just died and your main concern is for your family. That’s good
stuff right there.”
You looked at me with fascination.
To you, I didn’t look like God. I just looked like some man. Or possibly a
woman. Some vague authority figure, maybe. More of a grammar school teacher
than the almighty.
“Don’t worry,” I said. “They’ll be
fine. Your kids will remember you as perfect in every way. They didn’t have
time to grow contempt for you. Your wife will cry on the outside, but will be
secretly relieved. To be fair, your marriage was falling apart. If it’s any
consolation, she’ll feel very guilty for feeling relieved.”
“Oh,” you said. “So what happens
now? Do I go to heaven or hell or something?”
“Neither,” I said. “You’ll be
reincarnated.”
“Ah,” you said. “So the Hindus
were right,”
“All religions are right in their
own way,” I said. “Walk with me.”
You followed along as we strode
through the void. “Where are we going?”
“Nowhere in particular,” I said.
“It’s just nice to walk while we talk.”
“So what’s the point, then?” You
asked. “When I get reborn, I’ll just be a blank slate, right? A baby. So all my
experiences and everything I did in this life won’t matter.”
“Not so!” I said. “You have within
you all the knowledge and experiences of all your past lives. You just don’t
remember them right now.”
I stopped walking and took you by
the shoulders. “Your soul is more magnificent, beautiful, and gigantic than you
can possibly imagine. A human mind can only contain a tiny fraction of what you
are. It’s like sticking your finger in a glass of water to see if it’s hot or
cold. You put a tiny part of yourself into the vessel, and when you bring it
back out, you’ve gained all the experiences it had.
“You’ve been in a human for the
last 48 years, so you haven’t stretched out yet and felt the rest of your
immense consciousness. If we hung out here for long enough, you’d start
remembering everything. But there’s no point to doing that between each life.”
“How many times have I been
reincarnated, then?”
“Oh lots. Lots and lots. An in to
lots of different lives.” I said. “This time around, you’ll be a Chinese
peasant girl in 540 AD.”
“Wait, what?” You stammered.
“You’re sending me back in time?”
“Well, I guess technically. Time,
as you know it, only exists in your universe. Things are different where I come
from.”
“Where you come from?” You said.
“Oh sure,” I explained “I come
from somewhere. Somewhere else. And there are others like me. I know you’ll
want to know what it’s like there, but honestly you wouldn’t understand.”
“Oh,” you said, a little let down.
“But wait. If I get reincarnated to other places in time, I could have
interacted with myself at some point.”
“Sure. Happens all the time. And
with both lives only aware of their own lifespan you don’t even know it’s
happening.”
“So what’s the point of it all?”
“Seriously?” I asked. “Seriously?
You’re asking me for the meaning of life? Isn’t that a little stereotypical?”
“Well it’s a reasonable question,”
you persisted.
I looked you in the eye. “The
meaning of life, the reason I made this whole universe, is for you to mature.”
“You mean mankind? You want us to
mature?”
“No, just you. I made this whole
universe for you. With each new life you grow and mature and become a larger
and greater intellect.”
“Just me? What about everyone else?”
“There is no one else,” I said.
“In this universe, there’s just you and me.”
You stared blankly at me. “But all
the people on earth…”
“All you. Different incarnations
of you.”
“Wait. I’m everyone!?”
“Now you’re getting it,” I said,
with a congratulatory slap on the back.
“I’m every human being who ever
lived?”
“Or who will ever live, yes.”
“I’m Abraham Lincoln?”
“And you’re John Wilkes Booth,
too,” I added.
“I’m Hitler?” You said, appalled.
“And you’re the millions he
killed.”
“I’m Jesus?”
“And you’re everyone who followed
him.”
You fell silent.
“Every time you victimized
someone,” I said, “you were victimizing yourself. Every act of kindness you’ve
done, you’ve done to yourself. Every happy and sad moment ever experienced by
any human was, or will be, experienced by you.”
You thought for a long time.
“Why?” You asked me. “Why do all
this?”
“Because someday, you will become
like me. Because that’s what you are. You’re one of my kind. You’re my child.”
“Whoa,” you said, incredulous.
“You mean I’m a god?”
“No. Not yet. You’re a fetus.
You’re still growing. Once you’ve lived every human life throughout all time,
you will have grown enough to be born.”
“So the whole universe,” you said,
“it’s just…”
“An egg.” I answered. “Now it’s
time for you to move on to your next life.”
And I sent you on your way.

YOU ARE HIRED!!!
Franz710's misadventures of a call center agent story part 9
“If you make customers unhappy in the physical world, they might each tell 6 friends. If you make customers unhappy on the Internet, they can each tell 6,000 friends.” – Jeff Bezos
Hindi ko na naiintindihan ang sinasabi niya. Basta ang alam ko, noong mga oras na yun, asa alapaap ang aking diwa. “Congratulations, you've successfully passed the recruitment process. You’re hired”.
YOU ARE HIRED!!! Marahil, isa sa pinaka masarap na litanyang pwede mong marinig kasama ng “Oo, tayo na” at “Negative ang pregnancy test” (joke lang). Kaya naman nakatitig ako sa kawalan habang pinapaliwanag nung babae mula sa HR department ang mga terms and conditions ng kontrata. Bumalik nalang ang aking ulirat nang pinapirmahan niya ang sandamukal na papel mula sa brown envelope. Di ko alam kung para sa trabaho parin yun o last will and testament.
Pagkatapos ng ilang online tests and assessments (nakaka-urat talaga yung typing test), mga interviews na susubok sa tatag ng pinahid mong deodorant, sa wakas, isa na akong “technical support representative”. Oo, call center agent din yun, pero mas mabangis pakingan. Kung baga sa zoology, scientific name.
Naks. Di na ako tambay. Isa na akong employed citizen. Maiaahon ko na sa hirap ang aking pamilya. Mapag-aaral ko na ang kapatid ko. Mabibili ko na lahat ng gusto ko. Makakakain nako sa Jollibee kahit hindi linggo, tuwing pagkatapos mag simba. Makaka contribute nako sa bayan pamamagitan ng aking buwis. Pwede nakong magreklamo ukol sa katangahan ng gobyerno. Magtatayo ako ng unyon ng mga callcenter agents (taga-PUP talaga?). Gagawa ng resolusyon upang maibsan ang climate change. Ipo-promote ang world peace. Malulunasan ko ang famine sa Africa. Tatakbo ako at mananalo bilang kauna-unahang “non-american citizen” president of America (ano daw??) at pwede ko nang ipa-assasinate sa navy seal si Justin Bieber. Spell, Naive (ay, ayan na pala).

Natural lang na makaramdam ng lungkot paminsan-minsan
Ano namang mapapala mo kakaisip sa nakaraan at sa mga pwede pang mangyari? Wala ka naman sigurong super powers para maibalik ang nakalipas na. Dapat matuto kang pahalagahan ang mga nangyayari sa’yo sa kasalukuyan. Isipin mo yung ngayon. I-enjoy mo lang ang buhay. Wag kang emo. Hindi ka talaga magiging masaya kung di mo tutulungan ang sarili mo. Natural lang na makaramdam ng lungkot paminsan-minsan pero ang pagiging miserable? Wag kang hibang choice mo yan.

Tips paano makaka recover pag heart broken.
"Tuloy pa rin ang awit ng buhay ko
Nagbago man ang hugis ng puso mo
Handa na ‘kong hamunin ang aking mundo
basta tuloy pa rin" - a song from neocolors
Getting your strength back from a bad break up is hard, kahit hindi mo na mahal ang isang tao, mahirap na, or if you loved them, and still do, it is even harder.
Heto ang mga tips kung paano makakarecover sa break up and heal your shattered heart: (tips lang to ha you can share your own)
Ilabas ang sama ng loob, Iyakan blues(1st step)
Let it all out if you want to. Crying is good. Wala naman dapat ikahiya sa pag iyak (kahit lalaki kapa). It is part of life. You will find that there are going to be hard times that hit you all of a sudden and you will feel like crying and letting it all out, Ilabas mo lahat. You need to do this any way to keep your sanity kesa naman sa di mo ilalabas tapos para kang tanga ta tulala lagi. Isipin mo langt na this will help you feel better and get back on track. You need to do this when you feel the urge and do not worry about what others think.
Humanap ng kaibigan ng masasabihan ng problema
You need to share your feelings. Getting out what you are feeling is going to make you feel better inside. You want to share these feelings with your friends and family or anyone that will listen to you. Having a good support is going to help you get through the tough times faster. You do not have to let it out all at once. Talk about it slowly and work your way up to getting it all out in the open.
Iwasang sisihin and sarili (ta^^mahh)
Stop beating yourself up. While it is a good idea na malaman mo kung ano ang nagging pagkukulang mo and ano ba yung mga nagawa mong mali or mali din nya,Pero do not put all the blame on yourself. You will be in a terrible situation already when you are heart-broken. You will only make matters worse when you keep blaming yourself. Do not sit around and mag mokmok at mag pa ka EMO na iniisa-isa ang mga bagay na pagkukulang mo or everything that you did wrong in your relationship. Chances are that you both could have changed things for the better of the relationship, so it was not just you. It takes two to tango ika nga. You will make your pain more intense when you keep thinking about it instead of finding a solution. You should understand that everybody has weaknesses, including you and your partner. Accept the mistakes you committed and strive to avoid them in the future.
Ibaling sa ibang ang atensyon and act as if you are moving on.
Start participating in new activities and picking up new hobbies. If there is something that you have always wanted to do, but never made time for it (kase nga busy ka sa relationship mo dati), here is your chance! Do not be afraid to try new things, it is a wonderful way to get your mind off your heart break. Doing the things that you love the most will help you get over the break up too. You will want to make sure that you are keeping up with your hobbies and doing what makes you the happiest. Like on my end I love computers I have the time now to check new updates about computer technology on the internet. I also keep track of my schedule on track and stay busy at work being a tech lead in a call center (isali ba ang sarili ko). Do the same and this will help you heal faster. Keeping busy is key. You need to stay on the go and keep your mind occupied. This will allow you to keep those unhappy and undesirable life events out of your mind and keep you motivated to stay healthy. You want to make sure that you are doing all that you can to stay busy. You will want to talk to your friends, go out more and spend some time with your family. These things will make you feel better and help heal your wounded heart. It is difficult to feel pain when you are excited with what you are doing. When you participate in an activity that you have been longing for, you won't have time to be gloomy as you focus on your heart-break. This is the time to make your dream come true.
Reassure Yourself na “kaya mo yan”
Wake up in the morning and look at yourself in the mirror and say that you want to live life. This is very essential as until you don't feel like living, anything you do wouldn't be done whole heartedly. You are not a loser to run away from life just because of some hard situations that you have to face. Mending a broken heart is far easier than losing your life. Life is God's gift and we should make good use of it, so sulking and crying should be shown the door.
Take a Break! And Laugh Your Lungs Out
The best thing to do once you've had a breakup is to take some time off for yourself and get a grip of your feelings and emotions. The state of mind that one is in during or after a break up will not let you concentrate and give your best to anything you do. So take a little break from work and rather work on getting back your usual self. There are so many good comedy movies that will have you rolling all over with tears in your eyes laughing watching them. Walk to your nearby store and rent some good titles and watch them. Laughter is the best medicine; it not only exercises your muscles but also clears up your lungs and will be a perfect medicine to mend your broken heart. Laughter works like a therapy for your body and soul, so laugh as much as you can, and you wouldn't even realize that it's been quite some time that your mind wandered and thought about your ex.
Date once again (Date lang muna ha.di ko sinabi makipag relasyon agad)
When you find another person to date, you will have someone else to give your attention to. This will help you to get your heart-break off your mind.
Actually, broken heart is hard to deal with no matter how the break up goes down. It is something that may hurt for a long time to come. You need to figure out how to get over a broken heart when it happens. It may not be something that you want to think about but you have to do it because life does go on and you need to take advantage of it.
Bottomline mga kakosa.
Think about what is good for you. You have to get over this broken heart fast so that you are able to feel better. You need to make good choices for what is good for your heart and soul. Make sure that you are not putting yourself in any situation that may be harmful for you. Getting over the breakup is important and you need to do what is best for you.
Taking good care of yourself is important. You want to keep eating and exercising and staying healthy. You need to keep your strength up so that you are able to be strong and able to feel good about yourself. This will help you get over the break up and get back on track.
Time is of the essence. You need to remember that all wounds heal with time. You need to give yourself the time and soon you will notice that you are not feeling so bad and that life is good again.T here is no need to worry when you are involved in a break up. Everyone has been through it and there is going to be happiness again. When a relationship breakup happens, understand that it is not your fault and do not put all the blame on yourself. It usually does mean that something has gone off-balance in your life and in your relationship and you need to put that balance back.

The Charles Schultz Philosophy
("Don't worry about the world coming to an end today.It's already tomorrow in the Australia ." by Charles Schultz)
I have receive an email from a friend. I feel like sharing it to you
The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just read the message straight through, and you'll get the point.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America Contest.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.
How did you do?
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. They are not second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
Easier?
The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are NOT the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones who care.
Share this with those who have made a difference in your life.

Tips paano maging swerte
"I'm a great believer in luck and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it." - Thomas Jefferson
Minsan dahil lagi ka na lang di nakukuha sa work na iisip mo ba “Malas ba ako”
Bakit yung mga nakakasabayan mo sa job interviews parang ang swerte nya. Palagay mo mas magaling pa sa sagot mo pero ikaw bumagsak sa interview , at siya kahit di sya masyado magaling sa English eh natangap siya
SWERTE?
Some have it. Some don’t.
Some don´t believe in it.
Ako I do believe on it, One time nga isa sa nga interview ko ; sabi ng kapatid ko, malas daw ako dapat daw ako maligo ng asin at tawas before I go to a job interview. and you guess it right after I did the advice natangap ako. Coincidence maybe.
Heto sa palagay ko makakapabigay sa iyo ng swerte:
Isipin mo lang ay yung mga GUSTO mo, Wag mo isipin ang AYAW mo – This is “secret”. Whatever you focus your mind on you’ll find proof of and possibilities to get more of. If you focus on having no money, then your mind will find energy to attract this mind set to become reality.
If you focus on increasing your income then your mind will suddenly start noticing positive energy and will attract good results as well.
Focus on what you want, instead of what you don’t want, and opportunities will start to pop out of those positive feeling...
Be proactive – Wag mong hintayin opportunities na bigla na lang lilitaw sa harap mo. Do research online. The solutions and opportunities you need are most likely out there right now. They might fall into your lap some time in the future. But you if you are proactive then you can find some of them today. Don’t waste you time.Sabi nga ko nga dati sa sarili ko, Kung di ako pagbubuksan ng pinto ng oppurtunidad, ako na lang mismo ang kakatok.
Be open and maging alerto sa mga posibilidad – Possibilities may not always jump up into your face. They might be where you are right now. Or they might be a little bit further away, pehaps a bit to your left or to your right. But you have to be open to them and the possibility that they might not look exactly like you have imagined. Wag ka mag lakad na parang zombie pero don’t be too focused on a solution that will look exactly as you imagined it.Swabe lang , Look up, wake up, open up and take notice of the opportunities in your life. There are often more of them than we might think.
Be POSITIVE – By keeping a positive attitude most people will react to you in a similar manner. The world is often a mirror of ourselves. Kung may positive attitude ka towards other people they will be more positive towards you and offer you far more opportunities and help than if you keep a negative attitude.
Laging Handa (boyscout hahaha) – Now you that you’ve spotted an opportunity, what to do?(kunwari may sinagot ka) Exactly (sabi ko). It’s a great idea to have an idea about how you can use an opportunity in a way that it benefits you.
Read. Talk about what you want with others that have more experience and knowledge than you. Ask them a lot of questions (and don’t be afraid of asking the stupid ones). Educate yourself so that you are ready to make good and useful decisions when the opportunity arises.
Take action over and over again – Obvious, eh? Well, still it’s very common just to gather information about something or having an opportunity just in front of you and doing nothing about it. We’ve all done that.
Try to figure out what is holding you back. If it is fear – which I believe it pretty often is. If it’s something else, then try to find some information about your problem and practical solutions. Si pareng Google is your friend. Makakatulong siya at ang asawa nyang Si INTERNET.
Taking action over and over creates more and more possibilities for positive coincidences and possibilities. It also increases your experience and makes you better and better prepared for each time that you find a possibility diba?.
Following these steps has created more opportunities and chance coincidences – what I would see as luck – in my life. And, over time, habang ba hahasa ako. I believe I will create more and more of that.
p.s. about dun sa sa paliligo ko ng asin yun ba talaga nakapag pa swerte sa akin? last year oo yun paniwala ko but now as I write this article, I came to the conclusion kaya ako naging swerte ay dahil sa asin na yun na tanim sa isip ko na wala na malas sa akin, It's all in the mind , I just thought positive back then.
I hope you´ll have the same experience too like I do.
