Appreciate life and the people around you

I have always believed that we should appreciate whatever life throws at us. However, there is always a limitation to such appreciation. The only reason I say so is because I understand that there are people who meet so much misfortune in their day-to-day lives. Another reason why I say so is because there will be people you'll encounter who'll willingly play a devil's advocate in your life and, quite bluntly, give you hell.

Sure life will be overly difficult to get by with your mind practically preoccupied worrying over how to get through the day, but that doesn't mean you need to throw everything away and give up just like that. Don't let this be a setback to living your life the way you want to try and live it. Don't throw it away. Don't waste it, either. You only have one life, so live it to its fullest.

"Carpe Diem. I hope you could apply it in your life which means SEIZE THE DAY! Live each day as if it were your last. Make ordinary things extraordinary. That's the secret in making a difference in your life Strive to be the BEST taht you can BE!" (quoted from my 5th grade teacher back in 2002)

Our lives are unpredictable for us; anything can happen, and anyone can intervene. The best we can do is to enjoy what we can, and if we're lucky, bask in it for as long as we could. To love somebody is a testament; committing to be with someone is something far beyond that. If and when we get unlucky, we need to remember that we're not alone; that there will be people who'll always be there, holding your hand and won't let go.

Because c'mon, nobody should be living a life without being able to trust somebody. With the millions of people living in our world today, there's bound to be someone who cares enough to look after you even if you think that everybody is against you. We just need to learn how to open your eyes and spot them amidst the crowd.
