SPECIAL DAYS - 15th December ...

I wasn't to post so soon, but like the topic suggests, it's a special day!

Special days to me, are marked by dates or moments when something unique is remembered; or let me put it properly, it is the remembrance of unique events in one's life.

Today, 15th December, is such a day for me. It is so special that no matter how gloomy previous days were, at the dawning of 15th December, the climate suddenly changes, and I remember I have so much to be thankful for. I look forward to the day it will be set apart as a public holiday ;), I'm serious!


What is that special day for you?

FAMILY LOVE

Now, what makes family love so 'everything'?

This topic has been on my mind for a while. In a family where love is present, there is something really unique about it. There's joy, laughter, fights, more fights, little malice, reconciliation, and the cycle continues.


I find that every relationship has a climax point, and that's where the strength of the relationship is formed. Family relationships is one of those. If you have never been taken for granted, you probably are not in a family, you are alone. Yes, this is not cast in stone, but I find it existent in lots of families, and it is very normal because you are all familiar with each other, so there probably isn't anything 'special' about you to them, and I repeat, it is perfectly normal (even Jesus Christ was taken for granted) so don't despair.


Some of my friends regarded family love as the sweetest and it got me thinking. I'm aware some people do not understand what we are talking about, but it doesn't take away the uniqueness, beauty and honor in family love. I only pray they get to experience it also, and understand why we are so hyped about it.

Back to the reason...

Every family unit has the history of its members. Their strength, good points, weaknesses and shortcomings. They know what makes you tick, laugh uncontrollably, gets you upset, and raving mad. They've seen you unclothed, dirty, dressed up, with zits, broken skin, literally, everything about you. They can write your biography and not miss a detail. They have grown to love you unconditionally,  and you, them.

 That's what makes family love so sweet, the unconditional acceptance that we share.


Drop your thoughts, let's share ideas.

AFTER THE MISTAKE...

We learn everyday, and part of learning is missing it, and moving on. Did you take note? It's about missing it and moving on.

So you made a mistake, is the earth supposed to stop revolving? I don't think so. After the mistake, you learn from it and move on, and if there's nothing to learn from it, you learn how to avoid making that same mistake, and move on. Most important thing, is to move on, keep going.

Getting stuck in it doesn't help anyone. Even your critics won't have anything new to criticize anyways. You are not stagnant water, so just keep going ... there's a life after the mistake, live it and thrive!
