The Best Beauty Secret

Have you ever wondered why some people are always blooming and always have that radiant glow on their faces? Have you wondered why after association with some people, you feel refreshed, pampered and beautified? Why is it that some have beauty that is timeless?

I’m not here to endorse a specific beauty product.

I am here to share the bess, I mean, best beauty secret. :P
This has been tested and proven by a lot of individuals and multiple testimonies were already released.

A beauty secret which everyone should know is being happy.
What you are is a reflection of what you feel beyond the emotional and physical care.

Nurturing the mind is equally as important.
If you want to look ageless, you should love to constantly learn.
When you learn, you become confident with wisdom.
Beauty needs confidence.

But most of all, remember that ‘charm may be false, and prettiness may be vain”, but the spiritual aspect of an individual should be nurtured. When we love God, everything follows, we love our neighbor, we have peace of mind, and life is full of love and beauty.

Beauty comes from within and is reflected on the outside.

That is, undeniably, the BEST beauty secret!

GOODy Today

1. Offered an old woman my seat while riding the MRT
2. Brought home “pasalubong” for my mom as a symbol of gratitude for her selfless management of our household and for taking care of us
3. Refrained from snapping back at an irritated lady waiting for the queue of cab passengers
4. Visited a troubled Bible student and listened to her concerns for a long time
5. Assisted a 10-year old neighbor in doing her Math homework

Every night before I hit the sack, I say a prayer and think of all the good things I have done for the day. I reflect on the day’s activities and try to see if I had been good even for a single moment.

Childish and traditional as it may seem,but these simple thoughts may give inner peace and happiness.

So,try it. Purify your mind by being a GOODY today.=)

A Few Days with Toni

I finally met her in person.

The voice I regularly hear over the telecon is now a reality.
Fresh from Malaysia, Toni Lee is s picture of regional authority, corporate experience and innovation.
She has that drive and passion for work which influences everyone to get off to their feet, roll up their sleeves, and have another roll of scrutinizing on their tasks.
Intimidating and stern as she may seem, Toni showed us a different side of her and inculcated in our team lessons of importance.

Let me share some general tips which you may find interesting.

1. You cannot go for a thousand-mile-leap immediately, go for baby steps first.
2. In the football field, don’t keep the ball dribbling on your feet, kick it out.
3. Due diligence!
4. Do not leave any stone unturned.
5. Avoid casting stones, take responsibility of your accounts.
6. No matter how extremely busy and highly important an individual is, she has the chance to have a fetish for colored gel pens or a craving for cheese-flavored biscuits. Even these simple things can motivate an executive to word hard. ;)

Toni poses for a shot. Cool! ;)

The Ironies of Love

Admit it. Romantic love can be the all-encompassing source of peace, contentment and euphoria.

However, it can be the most painfully-slashing sword, the most crippling accident, or the most agonizing disaster in life. No matter how hard we try to close our eyes, we will still see and feel the ironies of love.

1. You love a person with all your heart, but that person doesn’t seem to notice you and (with all rights) cannot (and will not) love you back.
2. There are people who love you so much and are willing to give everything they have for you, yet you tend to go for the one who gives you complications in life.
3. He/she loves you. You love him/her. It all seems perfect between the two of you, but a superior factor contradicts – family, culture, religion, society, etc.
4. Distance separates two binding hearts. For a lot of reasons, you and your partner have to be separated by oceans and time zones.
5. You finally find the perfect life partner, but life takes a different course. The love of your life acquires health problems and death takes it toil.
6. You give everything for the one you love, become the most caring and sweetest partner, and become the almost-perfect-lover for him/her; yet your partner suddenly wants to wrapped in the somebody else’s arms.

Ironic, isn’t it?

But no matter how ironic love is, we still take chances and risks.

We love, unselfishly and all-out.

Eventually, we find out that the ironies of love can all be ironed out…

Rattles of the Keyboard

A few years ago, ideas rattled in my brain and my fingers started touching the keyboard of my overused laptop... and then presto! A blog named after my name came up. :)

In this blog, I share tidbits of my experiences, my POVs, and how I see the world with my bare eyes or with my baby Nik (my beloved SLR).

God's creation and the world around me fascinates my sense of being - be it in my hometown Marikina, or to super faraway places ;) And this is what I want to share with the world.
