A LOVE TO REMEMBER

In the gateway of my heart I put a sign that says, “No Trespassing” but love came laughing and said, “ I enter anywhere.” Love knows no reasons; love knows no lies-LOVE defies all the reasons. Love has no eyes. But love is not blind – Love sees, but it doesn’t mind. Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, the romance – and you find that you’ll care for that person. Love is supposed to be the most wonderful feeling. It should inspire you and give you joy and strength can also hurt you in the end. It starts with a smile, develops with a kiss and ends with a tear.

When you love you must not expect something in return. If you do, you’re not loving but investing. If you love must prepare to accept pain. For if you accept happiness, you’re not loving but using. Don’t go for looks, it can deceive; don’t go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile, “Cause only smile makes a day seem bright.

The beginning of LOVE is to let those we love be perfectly on them and not only to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them. Never try to impress someone to make him fall in love with you, ‘cause when you do you’ll have to keep that standard for the rest of your life.

A sad thing about life is that when you meet someone who means a lot to you, you’ll find out in the end that it was never bound to be and you just have to let her go. Maybe GOD want as to meet few wrong people before meeting the one so that when we finally meet the right person, we should know to be grateful for the gift. We often times don’t see the reason why we don’t always get what we want, but in the end of it all, we realize that what we wanted wasn’t meant for us after all – everything happens for a reason. When you feel down because you didn’t get what you wanted, just sit tight and be happy because God’s thinking of something betters for you.

It hurts to love someone and not to be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to someone and never find a courage to let the person know how you feel. It’s better to have found courage to love even if you lose it in the end rather than never finding love because you were too afraid to face its challenge. The greatest regrets in our lives are the risks we did not take. If you think something will make you happy, go for it. Remember that you pass this way only once.

Love; no matter how hard you find it, you won’t see it. No matter how hard you try you won’t get it. But when you’re about to give up, it comes. Sometimes the love we are looking for is right in front of us, too close for the eyes to see…So close you’re eyes and let you’re heart see itself. There are things you love to hear but you can never hear it from the person who says it with his heart. Just because someone doesn’t love the way you want doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have. There are so many stars in the sky, only some radiant enough to be notice. Among those you choose to ignore is the one who is willing to shine for you forever even if your glance remains elsewhere.

God never closes the door without opening the window. He always gives us something better when he takes something away. Heartbreakers will last long as you want and cut deep as you allow them to go; challenge is not how to survive heartbreaks but learn from them. In the relationships, thank God you’re hurting or crying. There you had given a chance to measure the importance of the relationship of the person because you experience suffering. We have no right to ask when sorrow comes,’ why this happened to me?’ unless we ask the same question every moment of happiness that comes our way. When God put tear in your eye. It because HE wants to put a rainbow.

There are things that we never want to let go of the people we never want to leave behind, but keep that letting go is not the end of the world. It’s the beginning of the new life. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You can’t go on well in life when you can’t let go of your past failures and heartaches. To let go is not to deny, but to accept. To let go is not to regret the past, but to grow and live for the future. To let go is to fear less and love more.

Don’t be afraid to break someone’s heart or leave your heart broken because that’s how relationship are when you are young – they are stepping stone for the main one. Follow your heart. It might not always be right but despite the pain, you’ll have memories that will make you smile even once in a rare while. It is better to have the person you love right now, than later and lose them forever, it is at it comes and be glad that for a moment in your life it was yours. Each of us is given a pocket full of time to spend however we may. We use what we will. We waste what we will. But we can never get back a day. Don’t let each moment shall go and feeling shall die. It might be too late when you open your eyes. Don’t be so busy planning the life you’re going to have that you fall to appreciate the one that you’ve already been given. Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be ;’cause you only have one life and one chance to all things you want in life. We are never given dreams without the power to make it come true.

A heart truly in love never losses hope but always believe in the promise of love. No matter how long the time and how far the distance. Never say goodbye when you still want to try – never give up when you still can make it – never say you don’t love the person anymore when can’t let go. TRUE LOVE doesn’t have a happy ending, that’s because TRUE LOVE doesn’t have an ending.

GLAMOROUS MAIDS

An Indian Islamic scholar and writer once said that, "The importance of an education is quite clear. Education is the knowledge of putting one's potentials to maximum use. One can safely say that a human being is not in the proper sense till he is educated." this has become my passion - to be a person of knowledge and wisdom and to reach my maximum potential.

My college days were very enriching. it has given me so much joy for the friends that I 've met, so much agony for the countless surprise quizzes, so many sleepless nights just to come up with the right implications for the tables we had to interpret for our manuscripts. and yet, much of these experiences are what taught me numerous values that will guide me in my career as a NURSE. However, I felt as though none could have prepared me for the reality after graduation. Frustrations and failures did come my way, but i stood up and gained my self-worth....I may have finished two Bachelors Degree...BSC-MA and BSN but i still so much more to learn... I know i cannot learn everything from the four corners of the hospital or conference room. Experience may have been the best teacher for me but i still lack the experience that i needed to become better.. I was so wrong to believe that i learned what i needed to learn, that i know everything about my profession and future work. But there is still great deal that i do not know...i just know i have to continue seeking, mastering and specializing skills, learning and knowing....there is so much to learn and relearn out there that a lifetime is not enough for education. Much of what we must gain knowledge of is still not learned. Ignorance of the the things that we needed to know is not excusable.....Clients and patients want more than a qualified nurses to meet their needs..and I believe that a nurse undergoing continuing education coupled with clinical experience makes that professional qualified for the job......

I dream of the day when all nurses in the Philippines are looked upon as someone who is a critical member of the health care team and seen by clients as indispensable element for their health care needs..............If an only if, this day would commence, this will become not only a great turning point for nursing history but will be the day when nurses can say that their nursing profession will be very far off from being called the "GLAMOROUS MAIDS".
