These following quotes came from a retreat when I was still in first year college... I was then at Mater Carmeli Ladies Dorm, I actually posted this blog on friendster, I just want to transfer it here. Just want to share what I've learned, because it is so inspiring.
* if you lose your simplicity,you will lose everything
Do you agree with this statement? I strongly agree, because no matter how rich you are or no matter how expensive things you have, you will never be satisfied. We tend to forget who we are, it is only in Jesus that we can be truly happy, it is only in Him that we can have everything we desire.=)
* don’t be a blame thrower,be a problem solver
Let's not blame others for the work not done or for the bloopers we had, because we have our own decision and free will, use it to improve things. Let's just think of something which can help resolve the problem and help find a solution. You also have some share in the bloopers right? Either you did not help and just stare, then blame the others or you did your best but then they throw it up? Just keep your calm and pray.
* speak up your mind because others are not mind readers
Well, not all people are like Jean Grey or Professor X. They can't read what your mind is thinking, if all of the people are like that, there will be no secrets and surprises, there will be no thrill, and there will be no mystery. Sometimes, you need to speak what you are thinking, so that they can have a piece of your mind. It is sometimes your own fault that you don't like a thing that is happening because you didn't speak your mind that you like it. You just keep silent. Just make sure you think first before you speak to avoid conflicts.
* dont desire on the height of your passion
Yeah! If you're on the height of your passion, you can't think clearly, you just think of the positive things on your mind but not the consequences, we can never know what we can do in this state.
* don’t just aim to be high,aim to be strong
Just like a tower, no matter how tall it is if it is not strong and sturdy it has the biggest possibility to fall. Like us, no matter how tall we are or no matter how far we had gone, if we have no foundation, we will fall back. We need faith in God, to go forward, to be in a pedestal and to be strong enough to face all problems and pass through boundaries.
