My Dream, My Future

                             Dream is what we want to be in the future. There are cases that parents are against to what their children want to be. If that's the case, we should not be confused on what to fulfill. We should still follow what our heart desire. So in the future we will not regret it.
                             To achieve our dreams we should study hard or work hard for it. We should not let our dreams stay as a dream. Instead we should do our best inorder to fullfil it. If your dream is not fullfiled despite what you have done, don't despair. Try other ways of fullfiling it. Just remember that if there's a will there's a way. However, don't ever sacrifice goodness while striving to pursue your dreams. Afterall, life is not measured by the length of time you live but by how good you have lived it.

Change: It Starts w/ Me

Change for the better is being sought for by everybody. There is a common purpose of looking for  changes, to make things easier and our life better. The only difference is how each person works it out. The realization of the changes we want to happen depends much on our strategy of implementing our plans.

Changes can happen anywhere, anytime. But oftentimes, we don’t get or see the result or effect of the changes we want. Why is this so? Is it because, we only wish for it to happen without doing anything, or is it maybe we did it the wrong way? Whatever the reason of failing to make the changes happen, self-initiated changes is more appreciated and it is more effective if it is done the right way. In  other words, if we want to change this world into a better place to live, we must start to change the undesirable things in ourselves. We can be able to show the purpose of our being, that is to please our Divine Maker by loving and caring for humanity and nature.
