Your life right now is a reflection of your past thoughts. That includes all the great things, and all the things you consider not so great. Since you attract to you what you think about most, it is easy to see what your dominant thoughts have been on every subject of your life, because that is what you have experienced.
- Rhonda Byrne
Happy Friday! 
P.S. I am now going to use Mister Linky because MckLinky no longer exists. This Mister Linky was used for the Entrecard Droplist before but it can still serve the purpose for our Friday Quotes list.
I love sunrise! It symbolizes a way to start anew for me. It’s been raining for days here from where I am. This is actually an old photo from a weekend getaway. I saw this and missed the sun.
Right now, it’s raining. Don’t get me wrong. I also like it when it rains because it washes away the dirt of the world. It makes the weather cooler. It’s just that I love the sun better…
But some are really NOT your best friends so they also don’t hear, right?
Hmm…
O baka masama lang ang loob ko talaga.
History repeats itself. Unless you do something to stop it from happening again. But I don’t. I didn’t. I was not able to. Time and again, I found (and still find) myself in this dump.
Bitterness is gnawing at me. Again.
Let me just pour this out before I drown in this overwhelming feeling of defeat.
Sometimes, you’d wonder why after days or weeks of bliss, something happens to mess with your happiness. To balance your life? Most likely. But it still is darn irritating, and is hard to understand.
Maybe I deserve this. But I believe I don’t. I’m a good person and I try to stay within the boundaries of what is right. I’m not saying that I don’t deserve trials, I just want to have a stretch of happiness. A stretch of time for myself and not think of any obligations. Not think of anything at all.
Maybe this is just a trial… Darn I had so many already and I’m just 31. I believe that I’ve had more than enough for the past 31 years. And I know there are a lot more to come. I just keep on thinking if I deserve all of these. If maybe being good is not good enough.
Or maybe, for some twisted, inexplicable reason, I made a bad choice somewhere along the way and this is the effect of it.
Crying might help ease this bitterness. Or maybe I should just sleep this off.
Ahh… Life can be pretty hard at times. I mean, there are days when you feel like everything’s going to be alright and then thing happen, mostly financial, and you feel like you are back to square one. That’s harsh reality for you and me.
I wonder when it will be just, you know, bliss. Even if for a few weeks, no worries. Please.
I apologize for the brief hiatus in Friday Quotes. I was sidelined by a lot of things I had to attend to. But I am now back to my old schedule. Here’s an earlier post for this week’s Friday Quotes.
I hope you are still here my fellow FQ participants…
There is a voice we should more often listen to—a voice we know in our hearts offers sage advice that can help us through dark times. It is the voice of experience.

Do you know…
When you are grateful, you give yourself the impression that things are going well.
Our minds have the ability to attract what we think about into our lives. When we think things are going, things tend to go well, and continue going well, maybe even better.
On the flip side, if you’re ungrateful and think that everything is going horribly wrong, that you have a poor, miserable existence, that tends to not only come true now, but continue to happen.
Be grateful, be appreciative, be thankful. Love your life. That way, you attract happiness not just today, but tomorrow as well.
And I am really, really grateful to everyone who still visits this blog. I am terribly sorry for not posting for almost a month! But there are things I had to take care of offline.
Now I am back! We are back! And expect to be guided into having a Fab Life once more!
Be happy and grateful, girls and guys, too!
When I was a kid, I loved daydreaming a lot. I used to daydream about having our own province where we have a nice home, nothing big just enough to have our own bedrooms and a porch and a swing made of tire in between two big trees. I used to imagine going to the beach and meeting new playmates there. Well, I used to daydream about so many different nice things a lot.
That doesn’t mean that I had a bad childhood. In fact, I had a really great childhood filled with happy memories. I just used my imagination to fill in the missing things because I came from a middle-class family and we didn’t use to have a lot.
A thick wad of P1000 bills gives pleasure.
A chocolate parfait with thick chocolate syrup gives pleasure.
A fun movie, with a bucket of popcorn on the side, gives pleasure.
A roller coaster ride gives pleasure.
A kiss gives pleasure.
What’s the difference between pleasure and happiness?
Pleasure is an outside job.
But happiness is an inside job.

Ladies, invite your men to a cheesy movie tonight. A cheesy movie is good for the heart once in a while, don’t you think? Make out in the back row. Eat those calorie-loaded popcorns. Laugh at the silly lines.
Girl friends, invite each other for a late night chick flick. You never know when we need a boost from a kindred spirit. Sometimes, we just need a feel-good movie to lift the cloud of loneliness from us.
How about it?
