The Awakening

What a nice weekend to start with...

The Desiderata thing, which is still lingering in my thoughts, is very well suited for me now. After the pondering comes the awakening....

Do you know how it feels like when you're left out? If seems that things aren't going your way, do you stop and say "dude, what's the matter with me?"

Well, life isn’t just about winning. Losing plays an important role for us to develop self-esteem. It's very hard to accept that a neophyte has beaten you but who cares! What's more important is believing in you and still enjoying other things that the world has to offer.

Quoting the last lines of Ehrmann's wonderful work:

"With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy."

I really liked this piece of work, truly awesome!!!

    The hardest part of it all is accepting defeat. It is nice to hear that you have handled yourself well. Perhaps all these happened for a reason. This is our wakeup call.
