On Temptation

Everyone becomes serious when the cupid’s arrow hits them. However, not everyone is strong enough to avoid temptation. We have eyes to see and hands to touch the beauty around us. Is it bad to appreciate the Ultimate’s creation? I don’t think so; it is how we handle the situation that matters.

Now the question is how should we handle temptation if it is lurking around? We should be mature and responsible enough not to entertain these enticement. These temptations are mere moments of happiness. It is better to be incomplete than suffer eternal suffering. So we should cut it off before it is too late. When all is done, I bet it will be worth it.

Pagod

Do I need to give more effort?
Do I need to alot more commitment?
Do I need to sacrifice more?
Do I need to work my butt extra hard?
Do I need to be more responsible?

Ewan ko. Pagod na ako.

On Alcohol

Alcohol is perceived as something that can help out in difficult situations. It is the cure to relieve stress and anxiety. It is a source of courage and confidence. After a bottle/glass or two… three… four and so on, you tend to change your behavior. You have this feeling of well-being wherein you become talkative and relaxed. It is the time and opportunity in which you are able to blurt out whatever it is inside your head and heart for the world to hear.

On the negative side, due to alcohol speech may be slurred, coordination is impaired, visual attention is impaired, etc. These actions may be a cause of arguments. You tend to utter things not meant to be divulged. You tend to display actions not usually done. You tend to see unreal things.

So for the “alcoholics” out there, handle your alcohol properly. Yes, maybe all you need is alcohol to gain courage. However, always remember: alcohol should go straight to the belly and not take any kind of turns to the mind, heart or wherever.

On Day 3

Food for thought: you only fail once you stop trying.
----
I nearly lost hope
One point is what I yearned for
The bleeding won’t stop

So so desperate
Gave my ultimate effort
Pushed to the limits

So near yet so far
One pass and successful catch
Oh, butterfingers!

Frustration aroused
Upset on the missed chances
Heat and tempers clashed

Exhaustion kicked in
Things became more challenging
Another setback

Feel so dishearten
It hurts emotionally
But cant back down now

Please give me the strength
The confidence, heart and will
to fight and play on.

On Twitch

There's this little twitch
Whenever you are around
Heart pounds much louder

Just a glimpse of you
Day is already complete
Oh happy, joy.. joy..

Who am I kidding
Stupid infatuation
Where will this lead me?

Will it be worth it?
A moment of happiness
For the uncertain

Should I entertain
The vague possibilities
Or ignore this twitch?
