#RandomThoughts

There is more to life than questioning why. 

Today might not be as good as yesterday, nor as cheerful as the pasts few days that we celebrated, but take note that today is your present. It is the moment that you may either look back with gratitude or regret. Therefore, choose the wisest thing to do. 


Choose the one that could add colors into your days. Don't dwell too much on the not-so-good parts of today. Rather, make every opportunity a blessing. 

In times of trouble, think that the Big Man is just reminding you to turn on Him. Seek God's guidance and strength in every action that you take.


Weary days are blessings in disguise. How? It is in these days that you can measure your strength. It is in these days that you make life-changing decisions. Five to ten years from now, you'll look back and feel good because that moment helped you become a better version of you. 


Moreover, good days are also blessings. Not only for you but also for those who surrounds you. It is the time in your life when you can be an inspiration to others. 


Be a humble example that dreams do come true, and that good days are just around the corner. 


I know things are easier said than done. But definitely, it can be done.

Sandcastles

Once t'was built with sands,
Under the hit of the sun.
On a summer afternoon,
Little by little molded by hands.

Started with a simple figure,
Eventually formed into a castle.
It all went well, impressive actually,
No one noticed- it was made quickly.

From a plain grain of sand,
Into beauty added in the land.
Lights and colors were placed
to enlighten people's face.

Some said it's dangerous,
Sandcastles aren't made for chaos.
For after summer it ends,
In the vast ocean, it blends.

Truly, after some time,
It became a common site to find.
One tried to reach, bring back its glow,
But time allowed the sands to flow.

After some time, seasons change.
Not all survive, only the brave.
Even the castle made of mere sand,
the waves of the ocean it can't stand.

Water slowly carried most of its part,
Though it fought to stay until the dark.
To no avail, the waves' stronger,
The castle is now nowhere to find - it's over.

Yes, it's gone but never forgotten,
By those who witnessed, and cared.
For once it gave joy on a summer day,
Where others have built memories and play.

The lesson it gave is something to ponder.
That for things to last it needs something better.
Not a weak sand, nor just the sunshine.
But a strong

will that could stand time.
