Fall Forward - Denzel Washington

It is uplifting, inspiring and motivating to see those that go through so much yet still have the strength and courage to face the world each day. It is a blessing from The Almighty. True strength is when you collapse many times but still manage to stand again and fight. No matter how weak and depressed and down you feel, somehow, sooner or later, you will stand again, in your own time. God is always watching. Pray to Him for the strength, for without Him we don't have anything and we have no power to do anything. And there's this inspirational speech from Denzel Washington that goes:
"Fall Forward. Sometimes, it's the best way to figure out where you're going. Never be discouraged, never hold back, give everything you got..and when you fall throughout life, remember this..fall forward." - Denzel Washington
Isn't it nice? Of course, for an ordinary person like me it's hard to never get discouraged, never hold back and such. For i have my own limits and fears. But when i tried and tried and kept on trying no matter how hopeless something is, and it still didn't work out in the end, i know i didn't lose. And i won't have to wonder 'what ifs' for the rest of my life. As God open others' eyes to see what was in front of them, mine was opened too. Had i stayed blind, there would probably be bigger misery and regret later on in my life. I realized that probably the things that i used to have were less that what i was willing to give, and maybe i was taught a lesson and something better is coming. Just need to flush the toxins out first in order to fall forward and not be dragged back. Only sometimes as you flush, there are backflows or something like that hehe so it's not that easy. But still...we are moving so good enough right?

Well just want to lay these words here..because these words were words of someone that were hopeful, touched by humility and was thinking sincere thoughts about the Almighty. It is kind of a waste to not share, who knows what kind of hope and positive vibe this could give to others out there who needs it?

My Pretty Scrapbook

I have a special pretty scrapbook of memories that i wish i could keep forever. The contents were put together with lots and lots and lots of love..and pain. In it, someone once wrote...
It is a pity that some pieces of the scrapbook had to go..they were precious especially the pretty ones.  They were all precious efforts. Even the notes that were full of sadness. But sadly.. it's become unbearable. I burned the pieces that once held promises & caring words but are now just meaningless. Still painful though because they are the reminder of what were temporary illusions. That scrapbook means so much to me but would just cause embarrassment if people just happen to look inside if it stayed as it were before. 

I think probably i had to burn some more..maybe just keep the less painful ones. It's really such a shame to have to tend to my own feelings like that.. i would keep it all if i can.. But i just couldn't.
