I have less than 7 years before I get 30 years old. Actually, my topic today just came out of nowhere. I don't usually think about getting old, but earlier today after waking up, a sudden thought about "getting old" popped inside my mind.
"Will I be too old at the age of 30?"
Of course not. But I will be too old to start making all my goals into reality. So, in as early as now, before I get 30 years old, I made a list of 7 things I should do before I reach that age.
1. Buy a House and Lot. Who doesn't want his own house and lot? Not me definitely. I hope within the 7 years time frame, we won't be renting anymore ;0
2. Got a business. Either a Internet shop, a small restaurant, or do real-estate... I am opting all of them ;0
3. Buy a Dream Car. Currently saving money for this ;0
4. Have enough bank savings for the future. I hope so... I wanted to be financially, emotionally, and physically stable by the age of 30.
5. Send all my siblings to college. I need a lot of money for this ;(
6. Travel around my country and enjoy the white beaches. Wow... I am just hoping so ;0
7. Rest, Relax, and have a stress-free life ;0
These are my 7 goals before I become 30 years old... and I wanted that, as soon as I will be 30, I will be enjoying my goal #7. Yippeeee!!!
How about you? What are your goals and plans before you become 30? If you are already 30 years old - do you still have plans for the future?
7 Things To Do Before I'm 30 Years Old
Do You Think It's Wrong To Judge Other People?
Why do we judge people? C'mon, let's admit it. All of us already judged other people in one way or another - whether it is giving that girl in the too-tight outfit a crappy glance or talking about people who sometimes make mistakes - it is still judging or criticizing.
So why do we judge other people? Is it because of jealousy? dislike? disappointment? or is it just a human nature - I mean, is it natural or normal to judge people because we are only human?
In my opinion, it is okay to "see" other people mistakes, weaknesses, or imperfections... However, instead of stressing it out and telling it to other people, why not talk to that person straight and honestly, tell her/him what you think about her, and suggest something you believe will make her/him better.
Fair, right? I know it is not easy, but it still the right move. That person may not appreciate your effort, but at least you did what is best for both of you ;0
What do you think?
Letting Go Or No Letting Go
For some people, letting go is so easy. They can say "I'm letting go" so quick - and these are the ones who can easily forgive, let go of the past, and look forward to the future.
In reality, if there are some people who think, believe, and feel the same as above, there are also few who find letting go so hard. They are afraid in:
- letting go of a relationship
- letting go of the past
- letting go of an ex
- letting go of anger
- letting go of disappointments
- letting go of emotional wounds
- letting go of unhealthy relationships
- letting go of an alcoholic (?!?!?)
- letting go of a dying loved one
- letting go of friendship
- letting go of a lover
- letting go of bitterness
- letting go of emotions
- letting go of past hurts
- letting go of shame
Did you ever find it hard to let go any of the above mentioned? Were you able to move on now? Or still dwelling with it?
Personally, I admit there are some things and people I still can't let go. Maybe I was just holding and hoping. Or maybe I was just too afraid to look forward because the past keeps taunting me. I am not sure - or maybe I was just afraid to face the truth.
I know I should let go. It might be hard but I must. I guess the key here is just the right timing. When? I don't know, but I just hope it would be soon.
Any advice?
Happy Father's Day - A Message From Me
Happy Father's Day to all dads and dads-to-be from all over the world!!! Actually, tomorrow (June 14) is the exact day... but I might be busy that time so in as early as now, I created this post to greet my father and anyone reading this post an advance "Happy Father's Day!!!"
Tomorrow is very special day to thank our dads even in simple ways. It is the only day of the year to tell him how much we love him.
What is your plan tomorrow for your daddy? As for me, I will greet and thank him via phone. I think it will do, even in a simple way. I may not be able to hug him personally or I may not have something to give him, but I am sure we both know we love each other as father-and-daughter ;0
I have here six sweet Father's Day text messages to send your dad to greet and tell him "You care" ;0 Have fun tomorrow!!!
1. You've seen me laugh. You've seen me cry. Always you were there with me. I may not have always said it. But thanks and I love you. Happy Father's Day!
2. God gave me the greatest gift I ever had. God gave me a best friend in the form of my dad. Father's Day wishes for a dad who is one in a million!
3. So many wonderful moments we have spent together. So many wonderful years in all kinds of weather. Thinking of you father brings memories to mind - wonderful moments I will treasure. Happy Fathers'Day!
4. Thanks for being there through the tears,laughter and dirty diapers. Happy Father's Day!
5. You may be out of sight but you're always in my mind. Happy Fathers'Day!
6. Your guiding hand on my shoulder will remain with me forever. Thanks for being always there Pops. Happy Father's Day!
Crab Mentality - The Good and The Bad
I've been thinking of creating a post about crab mentality for so long, but it's only now that I got the motivation to do so. I am so sleepy right now, but I feel obligated to update this blog and the subject about crab mentality could be a great topic. Maybe after publishing this post, I will sleep ;0
Why talk about crab mentality, you might ask? It's because this really happens in reality - in work, in school, in our homes, even in the blogosphere. I want to concentrate this post about crab mentality among bloggers, because I feel someone was pulling me down ;(
According to Wikipedia, crab mentality is a way of thinking best described by the phrase "If I can't have it, neither can you." The metaphor refers to a pot of crabs in which one tries to escape over the side, but is relentlessly pulled down by the others in the pot.
I feel so disappointed - even disgusted - knowing there are some bloggers who think as crabs. They keep on pulling booming bloggers down. Why did I said this? Just recently, someone anonymously left a comment on my other blog telling me he will keep on clicking my ads so I get suspended or banned. Whhhhaaaatttt!?!!!!
Instead of getting alarmed, I get furious instead. Why would someone do that? It's not because I am making money with the program - and this guy maybe doesn't - he got the right to do this action. Gladly, I was able to track the site and IP address of the guy who keep on clicking the advertisements of my blogs. If I get furious enough, I will do the necessary action/s.
Crab mentality is really sickening. Why would someone not let other people succeed? Instead of pulling other people, why not do something that will make them successful as well?
Crab mentality is another reality that really kicks ;( So sad, but true...
