More Thoughts : Live Life As it Is !!

Live Life As it Is ..

We have so high expectation in our real life....we end up with nothing but a great disappointment. You thought that you have made a perfect plan then suddenly everything is working against you and left nothing on your favor. What's wrong in this situation?

Some know how to deal with pressure and some don't. Some people enjoy being pressured and the others think they destined to be a loser of life.
Just like in any sports, in this life you have to take victories and defeats. Although you work hard and make a perfect plan, you can't always aim for success in everyday. There will be a moment-even once in a lifetime-which things are going not on your side. There may be people who are more passionate than you, luckier, may be in a slightly advantageous position.
Most of the time, you will not realize this possibility. When you in the hardest condition of your life you simply feel that you are not born to be a champion, and hence, nothing you can do can give you a favor.

It takes time and requires maturity to accept things as they are. Sometimes, it's hard to keep your head cool and keep strive to do your best regardless of the outcome will be.
Your expectation might favor you or not at all. A wise man once said that the higher the level of the expectation, the lower the level of the satisfaction. And it's right. The future is not yours to see. You don't have to think about anything in the future. Just think about present and give your best. Live your moment now. The only reality is the current situation. The past couldn't be relived and the future might not ever come.

You have to learn to adapt and accept it. You also have to learn to live for yourself, your own ideals, your own goals, and your own reality. The hell it matters of what people might think, you will not be swayed by all of the emotion and praise. Whether the others slam you or raise you to heaven, it's all the same for you.

You give your best. With the very normal expectation you live your life as it is. Sometimes you fail yourself, sometimes life pushes you around. But you never complain, you just go on, calmly, and trying to do your best.

Life is about your choose. You can blame others for your defeat, or you might learn from it and strengthen your steps to coast the next victory. A defeat today only means that you have to win tomorrow. Do not shed tears over failure and always control your expectation. Do everything for yourself, for your own pride. The result will follow, including the success.

Life has always had its ways of teaching us lessons.... :)
Just when you think you have it good, next think you know you are hitting rock bottom. But one thing good about hitting rock bottom is, there is no way but up.

Back when I was younger I would always dream of "growing up". I'd always think I can do more things when I was older. I could watch films that are for older people, I could get into clubs, people would take me more seriously there would be no curfew, I would be my own king once I was older. Shallow things huh?

But with age comes great responsibility. Remember the days wherein everything was spoon fed to us? Homework, lessons. Everything came in a silver platter. But as we grew older, WOW! Everything had to come with a price. Before I used to be able to ask for money whenever I wanted. Now, I had to work for my allowance. HA-HA!

I guess what I'm trying to say is. Life is a process. At least it should be. And like all processes it should be something cherished and handled accordingly. It shouldn't be rushed. It's like rushing to drive a car even if you've only had 3 lessons. Eventually you are bound to meet an accident because you do not have the formal education needed.

Life has a way of teaching us things. But it does have an instrument for such education. It's called experience. The only way to get this experience is by going through the process life has designed for us. It's like the stages of maturation. It starts with infancy, childhood, teen, early adulthood, adulthood and so on. There is always a phase and a process we should undergo

What I learned so far from my journey?
Take it one step at a time, live it day by day. Simply put. Relax. We are bound to get wherever we are destined to be. Incidentally I believe in destiny. So just relax and live your life on a day to day basis. You'll get there. We will all get to wherever we want to go. But what is always worth the trip, is the moments you spend traveling.
