Uncertainty for Happiness

The reality that you are going to lose her anytime makes you value her even more. It makes you more appreciative of every second of your time together. It makes the bond stronger, the respect higher and the relationship more valuable. You learn to give more and take less. You learn to appreciate the little things. The bit of time that she can spare, the small efforts, the little touches, the look in her eyes, that killer smile, the soft laughter, the subconscious gestures. And sometimes, the over-attention that results from her jealousy. You adjust to her quirks, gripes and unconventional principles. You accept her mistakes, her personality, attitude and beliefs that are generally different from yours.

When you learn to live by uncertainties? You will be fully content. You will yearn for nothing more. Except to be able to have time with each other again. To be in her presence. To celebrate her existence. Then, you will be completely happy. As I am.

The 8 Thank You Series2

As I am slowly adjusting to the *homebased routine, there are still days when I miss having specific targets set out for me. However, I just need to discipline myself so that I can get things done within the day, employed or not. While pondering how to go about setting self-discipline, I got thankful for:

1. MarkeMan's post on the RH Bill which conveyed points I feel strongly about too (really mulling on writing something about it too but reluctant still)
2. bananas that I eat grudgingly because I don't like them but they are such good sources of pottasium

3. my sinusitis attacks which always remind me to avoid too much pollution and eat fruits daily
4. the delicious aroma of Pancit Canton which gets me through the tough days and the bad days, as well

5. the more valuable relationships I have now compared to my much younger days
6. the therapeutic effect that blogging has provided for me especially these days
7. Photobucket where I get almost all images here and made my blogging life extra convenient
8. the simple bed I can lay my back on whenever it gets too stiff from running through the chores of daily living
