Fortune Cookies

 HA!

Last night, after I ate my delicious Chinese Food for dinner, I decided to have two fortune cookies because they were so yummy! In my opinion, some fortune cookies are just better than others. Anyway, these are the result of my fortune cookies! The statements compliment each other and finished each other sentences LOL.

Sometimes it is nice to hear or read encouraging words from other people, may it be someone you know, a stranger or even some fortune cookies lol. This is why I love collecting words of wisdom, write it down on my journal or take picture of them as a reminder of what I could be if I am willing to do it. I also love to write them down to encourage myself and others. 

When something captured your eyes, your heart and soul, your brain tends to remember it and stored it for future references. That is why we need to stored wisdom and encouraging words into our brain so that we live by those words instead of negative, self pity, discourage words that will pull your spirit down along with the people that you meet in your life. You know, misery loves company kinda person, you don't wanna be that person. Nobody deserves to live a miserable lives and nobody have any right to bring other people down with them, dives into their unhappy life.

Say something nice to other people today, do something good for others, try to encourage other people without being fake. What do I mean by that? we do not have to compliment others and lie as well. Every person has their own uniqueness, whether they realize it or not. Bring that out of them, point it out to them so that they could see it as a gift, talent, useful and special instead of weirdness, bad and useless. 

Don't compliment others based on something that is not in them, for example do not encourage someone to pursue a singing career when everyone think they could not sing, including that person himself lol. Encourage them to pursue something that you know they could do and would be good at it plus it will satisfied them as well. Sometimes people just need a little push, a word of encouragement to step into their "dream comes true" world.

Go after your passion, your dreams, use your talents for something good and be happy with what you have accomplished now. Life is not over until we are dead, so as long as we are still breathing, we could still reach our goals! Good Luck and Best Wishes!

House and Colors

I don't usually post anything about interior design, but I actually LOVE looking at houses and interior designs. These are some of my favorite things that I found today.

I love the colors! 

I mean, I am a pretty basic girl when it comes to my own house interior design. I love contemporary house with white, blue and turquoise colors. I love the beach/island theme when it comes to what I want in a house. But, I made an exception for these pictures.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

BE YOURSELF

via google search

We heard this saying "JUST BE YOURSELF" over and over again. From elderly to kids saying this statement to each other with a proud smile and hope for a better future.

My question is "Is it true?"

To be honest, there will always be someone or something who inspired us to be who we are today. May it be a family member, friends, public figure, martyrs, celebrity or even a stranger on the street. There is always another ideas, style, fashion sense, thoughts that inspired us to follow their footsteps, be like them, or at least trying to be like them.

So, is the statement "BE YOURSELF" really works the way it is or is it the end of our journey to finally figure out what we want, who we are and what we want others to see us (with the help of other people that we admire in some sense.) So, be yourself is a self discovery or is it there from the beginning and work its way up to who we are as a person today.

For me, be yourself slogan could make someone walking to a better self or the other way around. See, it is important to be yourself in a sense of do what you think is right for you, good for you without making other people suffer (even though through the process some people will or might get hurt).

What I meant is that you can be what you want yourself to be, but what are the boundaries? Law, morality, religion, limitation? We will never be able to extend our "be yourself" to the extent. Why? because we are not alone in this world. Even if A want to go around the world naked, society wont allow that, you know what I mean?

There is always someone or something who inspired us or limit us or slow us down to be the SELF that we want us to be.

Fashion, hmmm ladies, how many of you don't really enjoy walking in high heels but do that anyway in the name of trend, fashionable and makes you feel sexier or taller? LOL.

Men, how many of you wished you could grow your beard and don't have to shower all day? many. But hey the wife/gf wont allow that.

Children, how many of you don't wanna go to school and just wanna play that video games all day long and be the mighty king who killed the dragon? after all, you love yourself and wanna be yourself, right? You get my point :)

Here is my own opinion. "BE YOURSELF" is a very positive statement to build your confidence, to boost your dream, to make you feel better about yourself, to make you let go of your failure. BE YOURSELF could be dangerous as well when used to glorify yourself in a destructive way. There is a boundary in loving yourself. You have to take care of yourself as a part of being true to yourself and love yourself therefore you become who you are at your best. Now, that is be yourself to me!

Enjoy God's gift to you : LIFE. 

You are all you've got, now take good care of it and loving the result. Trying to be your best is the key of success in "Be Yourself" campaign. You don't have to be like someone else to be your best. You can have someone as your inspiration, but she or he is not you. Be creative with what you have.

Be yourself is all about trying to do the best you can. When you do your best and you still don't see the result..then TRY AGAIN. But, appreciate yourself for trying and do not try to measure it with someone else's success and timing. We have our own ideas, timing, creativity and way to make it happen.

Be proud of who you are, be yourself is about trying to extend all the qualities that is in you and use it for a better purpose in life. When you hate yourself for not being as "beautiful", or as "rich" or as whatever as others, you are abusing yourself.

The older you get, the wiser you should be and the more you understand what you want in life. Go get it without standing behind someone else's shadow. Let them be who they are and let you be yourself doing things you love and are good at and be happy!

Give yourself a tap on the back now..good job!
