On Perspective

Sometimes we tend to see things narrowly that we feel bad about our self. Well myFriend, try widening your view and look things at a different angle. If you can't see the goodness at your view point, try HIS view. You'll be dazed in awe.See things, on perspective...

Settling myself a few minutes after arriving from an exhausting trip from Manila to San Fernando, Pampanga, I immediately turn on my PC in order to download the pictures I have took from my cellphone. Not so excited huh? :) However, upon entering my log in information and pressing the Enter key, Boom! the power supply of the computer, gone. Come on computer! Not now. Okay those are the thoughts that are stirring in my mind while I telepathically talked to Eight (the name of my PC) hoping it would answer back. Sadly, Eight died that day. Nice timing huh?

Morning came, I decided to bring Eight to the computer shop to be checked or repaired, if necessary. I am hesitant at first to continue since the weather's not so fine due to the typhoon. At the end,however, I asked mySis to help me bring the computer to the shop just in case the rain pours I have someone to cover my dead PC.

We came at the shop thankfully, dry :) We didn't wait long as well, thanks to the attentive and prompt service of myCompTech. Nice service! Eight was revived in no time. Since I am at the shop already, I asked the sales lady if there were available RAM (Random Access Memory) compatible for my computer. Fortunately, no stock.

Our next stop, the wireless center to apply for broadband connection. The application process went smoothly but for one thing. When I was about to pay the initial monthly fee, network went offline. How lucky can I get? Now, this made me think. Is heaven creating some conspiracy about all this misfortune?

Rather than dwelling on these mishaps, let me commend myBroadbandGuy for the excellent customer service he gave. In less than thirty minutes or so, I was able to complete the whole process of application. Every now and then update on the status of my application, full disclosure of the service, courteous warm and with a smile interaction with the customer, what more can I ask! I am giving five stars to myBroadbandGuy for the distinguished service.

On perspective, I may see myself unlucky or "malas". But widening my perspective to view on the larger part of the picture made me realized that hey, I'm lucky! When Eight broke down, I just prayed. Why should I worry when the computer's warrantied for two years! The death of my PC created some quality time with mySis. We were able to exchange stories about the conference and my experience in it and her, with the recent religious gathering she attended in Tagaytay (she's hoping to be part of a singles Christian Community) as well as the fun she had at Enchanted Kingdom theme park.

Thanks God there were no stock on the PC hardware(RAM) I am supposed to buy, I was able to save money. Sweet :) As with the bad weather and the network issue at the wireless center, these were stumped by the superb customer service I had.

Superblessed

The Kerygma Conference 2007, the Biggest Catholic Learning Event! True indeed I must say. Not only was my soul nourished, empowered and unleased but my totality SUPERBLESSED! Allow me to share the enlightning experience I had on my coming post. I would not however go on details of the program, rather share the personal learnings I digested.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank two people for without them I may have never realiazed how blessed I am today... myMatz and mySurvivor. myMatz for introducing Bo S. and mySurvivor for the ever cheerful and persistent spirit to bring me along the event. Thank you.

Basic

"I personally define it as a state where I make a timeout. A time for assessing things. To simplify by removing the clutters that obstructs me from getting my planned goal."

Life per se is simple. But as we grow older, life complicates. It becomes complicated with different factors like our needs, wants, dreams, money, future, fears and the list goes on. So what do I do to overcome this? Go back the basic.

I personally define it as a state where I make a timeout. A time for assessing things. To simplify by removing the clutters that obstructs me from reaching my planned goal.

Easy said than done I must say. Why on my definition, simplifying reciprocates its own meaning? Be less to have more. Stopping in order to move on farther. Silence to utter a word.

Going back to the basic is just my way of awakening myself to get back on track. Nevertheless, whatever way you choose or make, what matter's the fact that you were able to realign oneself to reality. That is, life continues and its up to you if you would make a turn in its straight simple path...

A look back

"Well, a philosophy I learned through this years when time comes that I find myself lost... I just go back the basic..."

It's been a while now since my last post. Well, it's not that nothing big is happening to me this past few weeks, rather I just choose not to write.. or you may put it this way. Nothing inspires me to write anymore. Lousy reason. I guess.

Did I made the right decision in retaining the name of the blog? Or am i just fooling myself that hey! you were made known of this name so continue with it. Would it be fitting to start a new one? My answer? I don't know. While contemplating on this question, I happen to remember my first blog. An unknown link, where a few were able to discover this hidden Easter egg.

Allow to present my first blog where it all started...

You may have noticed on how I struggle in constructing this post, and referencing an old blog just to complete it. Well, a philosophy I learned through this years when time comes that I find myself lost... I just go back the basic...
