WhAt I fEeL! "Chocolate Colored Font" :)

If only I knew how's it going to be
If only when I try to fix things, they became better
If only I was certain of how others feel
And if only people believed what I say...

If I knew how to show what I really felt
If I knew how to make people understand
If I knew how to make them believe
If I knew how to make them happy

If making people happy doesn't leave me sad
If making them understand doesn't make me an ignorant
If making them believe doesn't make me a liar
And if letting them know how I feel doesn't leave me numb

Things would've never reached that point
I know I would be in a much happier place
No one would ever blame me for not caring
No one would blame me for not thinking

That's life ....You're never certain
You never know, you're never sure
You're not going to live that dream of yours
And life would never be "trouble free"

You have to live with what you have
You try to fix the broken glass
You try to collect the shattered pieces
You make the best of everyday
this poem reflects about my past actions that cannot be fixed again;"If only" I could make the best of my day to make people surround me make them happy and sometime it makes me feel alone even though I'm not alone; and this poem tells about how could make them happy if the consequence is your own happiness?

Realization, Learning & Resuloution


My realization about 2012 is...I wasted a lot of time

unnecessarily but 2012 ended with

happy moments for me, this 2012 for me give me second chances

though out my life almost of my prelim grade don't fall 90

and below I was so happy about that but never the less 

I also struggle from trials, difficulty and pressures

but it never stop me from that, I guess it is always a part of

being human,:) I Thank 1012 for the year you shared for me.

Then I learn many thing about 2012...

It boost me a lot of courage to take over the 

challenges and struggles that stumbles me but the very point

is I stand through It and learn form my mistakes.

I guess i don't believe in resolution itself because

no one have ever accomplished it.

But I want to start my new year right because I believe

right thinking follow right things such as right behaviors,

right actions, right attitudes, and a wise decisions.  

But there is something that I believe in the word

"DREAMS" someday I want to Cruise on the 

"Oasis of the Seas" because it is just like a dream came true

then you are ready to die for the next day.

It makes me smile and inspired when I hear that word.
LOOK BEHIND THE POSITIVE SIDE OF LIFE
