Encouragement...


Negative reinforcement is never a real encouragement...
For encouragement borne out of angst, anger, vengeance and vindication are deceptive... 
For it is only through compassion and love that encouragement brings forth true success...

Too much time has passed. Though still young, I already feel old at my age. Why do things have to turn out this way? What have I done to merit this kind of life I’m leading now? I am supposed to be happy and content with the things I have achieved. Yet, there is a certain inkling in my heart telling me that I am supposed to be someplace else and that I have something yet to do which will prove the worth of my existence.  I have lost my self-worth in the midst of my journey.

They don’t shout at each other but talk softly, Because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is either nonexistent or very small. When they love each other even more... they do not speak. They only whisper and they get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other and that is all. That is how close two people are when they love each other. So when you argue do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance each other more, or else there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return...
