Discoveries

This is all about discovering your self who you are. To enjoy and savor the many blissful opportunities that life has got to offer is to get to know yourself in all perspectives. This is not just asking yourself what you really want in life. What are your goals or ambition?

This is all about you. Discover yourself, as it was never been before.

Life has always been a touch and go. A series of ups and down, like a roller coaster ride.  It was not an easy journey but despite I managed to continue riding and seeing myself in various dimensions of time. In recent times, I have had the most exciting and enthralling discovery of my life. This is what I call, The Time of my life. 

The Time of my life

Boy oh boy! This is a fascinating journey to my inner self. The tapestries of event in my life have been a pioneering spirit to share with you my joys and sorrows. I often hear people say to me that I always look young and never age at all. What�s the secret? The truth is theres no secret at all! I seem young and alive despite my chronological age because I always have a childlike enthusiasm for anything new. I spent my time in asking for questions and seeking answers. The rhapsodies of emotion in my heart have vacillated in my personality, in which I need both sociability and solitude at different times.

Sometimes the vagaries of human nature could be attributed to the intangible side of the universe and its spiritual rebirth.

If you have the courage and zest for life then this is the time of your life that you are waiting for great accomplishments. Use your innovative skills, your will power constructively. When I begun writing my recipe book, I never thought that I would end up publishing a complete book. My idea to write recipes for friends and family was just to give them a basic idea of cooking International dishes. It was my passion in cooking and writing that lead me to have my first book published. My interest in anything secret or mysterious has helped me to understand the deeper causes and roots of a person's emotional problem. Most of my ideas often come to me out of the blue. Develop an intuitive mind and try keeping a journal or a record of your dreams or sudden insights that flashes in your brain. Your introspective mind will have you unleash the many intriguing questions that are bothering you. Discover the time of your life that you have been waiting for. You inner heart desire to achieve love and happiness depends on the emotional foundations of your life.

The Wonder Woman

Yes I do wear a wonder woman outfit. This outfit helps me relate to my environment and cope up with the changing events of life.   The essence of being a woman is a formidable challenge to every female persona. Being a woman is something. You are the light of the world and a special creature of God. A God's inspired character of the world. You could be a splendid portrait of Mona Lisa or impeccable demeanor Mother Teresa. Contrary wise you could be the seductive Helen of Troy or the valorous Joanne of Arc. More or less, she could be the normal worrying mother at the end of the road trying to earn a living for her family.         

Discovering my role as a woman has given me true sense of perspective to understand my personality. I know I'm a woman in every sense of the word. Wow! What does this mean?               

Growing up as an only child, I came to realized that the role vested upon me as a female figure would mean that I have to undergo a series of life changing course from my teenage adolescent years to becoming a wife and a mother. It was a painstaking process I should say. Contrary to the famous cliche that woman belongs to the weaker sex. Women are far more vulnerable yet valorous when it comes to decision-making. We often take life seriously than our male counter part. In my personal opinion, I respond to life mentally and objectively rather than emotionally. My need for companionship and togetherness makes me a real female personality. Like any other women, I'm also vulnerable to pains and sufferings brought on by family crisis and social events. But my boldness approach have had always helped me over come these complexities in life. The joys of motherhood have given me immense fulfillment in life nevertheless of the sleepless nights I have to bear with a grumpy child. Through out these years my experiences in life have helped me raised a sensible and wonderful teenage daughter who is now on the threshold of finding her place under the sun. Tough years for me yet somehow I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. My portrayal of a role as a pillar to my family household despite having a loving and supportive husband has taught me to radiate a sense of pride, self-assurance and a definite awareness of my own importance. I always express a spirit of cooperation and compromise in dealing with my family members and I guess this is relevant factor in achieving harmony in your family. The turbulence in our marital relationship is like a roller coaster. It comes and goes. Somehow I managed to pass it with flying colors. Frankly speaking, I didn't know how I put with it. But yes, eventually I have done it! I always value fairness and equality both in my personal life and in achieving my career goals. There were also times that I have almost given up and couldn't stand the test of time. Tired, exhausted and worn out. I need a break! Shouting for help!!!

Financial worries, health scare, unstable relationships, family crisis, job insecurities and so forth.

The epicenter of these problems is centered right in my heart. The woman's heart is the quintessential sacrilege of her personality. I have pondered several times and after realizing that I'm still in one piece, what the hell I'm crying for? Get me up, silly me? Just like my favorite song, nothing is going to stop us now. I must face reality and do what needs to be done. My heart is my main motivator and my brain is my main stimulant. I will follow my heart's desire to seek eternal love and happiness.      

It is strong as an iron. In going to the many facets of life, my endurance have been tried and tested many times. Women like you and me, seems to be inured to pains and sorrows but don't you know that these are the best times of our life, the sweetest things in life comes from sufferings.  To discover the wonder woman in you, you must overcome considerable hardship and fulfill your personal destiny. You, as the woman after God's heart whose primary concern is God's will in her heart.  

 

Discover your sixth sense

 Blimey! I am 45 today.

Wow! Life begins at forty, when? To be honest, I can't even remember the day I turned 40! Let alone that I'm 45 today. Oh no! Something must have gone wrong with the clock and calendar. It seems though there's a lot to take in here. What is going on?
Blimey. This is a figure of 45 you are talking about! In 5 years time, I'll be hitting the big 50. It means that I'm getting old? I'll be getting my free bus pass and pension booklet. Is that so? You must be joking. .
Well for now, let's talk about this wonderful age of 45. The middle age that often vibrates midlife crisis. Should I say, it's surreal at the stroke of midnight I�m no longer a spring chicken? Vecchia as they say in Italian and Matanda or gurang in Filipino language. It's very cruel; I don't like the sound of this.

One day, I got up and gazed myself in the mirror. It was my 40th birthday, 5 years ago. At that time, I was proud to be 40 as it's a celebration of life.
To be honest, when I turned 40, it didn't sink into me after all. Believe me, I didn't notice any peculiarities in my physical well being or eccentricity in my behaviour.
Hang on, wait a minute. As they say, forty years on, growing older and older, shorter in wind, as in memory long, feeble of foot, and rheumatic of shoulder. The age of weariness, the promise of a decade of loneliness, thinning bags of enthusiasm, thinning hair for men and thinning bones for women, the onset of senility, all of these are the horrific signs of twilight age. They are hideous ironically they are inevitable events. Anyway I don't want to know these, let me enjoy my life to the fullest.

What used to be my nice well-ordered mind is seething with involuntary thoughts today about growing old. Another year has been added on. I can�t stop it can I? The clock is ticking very fast.
When I was a teenager, I was pretty good in writing love poems, my way of expressing my hidden emotion; I was an impassioned poet, a dreamer and a comic character.
My heart is my best friend and has always been my mentor ever since in going through difficult times and life changing events.
I know I'm happy when I catch myself singing out loud or cooking in the kitchen for hours. I know I'm in love if I see myself writing love letters. This is what happens when the heart is touched. It exudes life, nourishes soul and pulsates love moment by moment. The passion is infested by thrilling intimacy.
Now today at 45, where do I go from here? Boy oh boy, as I watch the sky bring trailing clouds of glory, I'm certain this would be a fascinating discovery to the many hidden facades of life. Yes, I've noticed that I've started to have few grey hairs. Oh well! I don't mind after all these are the badges of my achievements and experiences in life! Apparently, the happiest women on the planet are those who didn't have or opted for any facial or plastic surgery at all. Ha! Ha! Ha!
The tapestries of event in my life have been a pioneering spirit to recall my joys and sorrows. I often hear people say to me that I always look young and never age at all. What's the secret? The truth is there's no secret at all! I seem young and alive despite my bloody chronological age because I always have a childlike enthusiasm for anything new.
I spent time asking for questions and seeking answers. The rhapsodies of emotion in my heart have vacillated in my personality in which I need both sociability and solitude at different times. Sometimes the vagaries of human nature could be attributed to the intangible side of the universe and its spiritual rebirth.
Two of my favourite inspirational quotes about growing old:
To know how to grow old is the masterwork of wisdom, and one of the most difficult chapters in the great art of living by Henri Frederic Amyl
The old believe everything: the middle-aged suspect everything: the young know everything by Oscar Wilde.
Blimey! I'm REALLY 45 today, there's no such stopping it! No longer the young and the restless but a goddess of wisdom and humanity. Bring it on babe; I am having the time of my life as I await more epiphanies on my way. Happy days!
