Drifting away

Figure 1: Drift into the ocean. 

My memories are getting more and more faded away as time passes-by. It seems as if I am floating in an atmosphere filled with bubbles of memories popping away every second I breathe. It's hard to forget, but to experience a feeling long forgotten is pleasant.

 When I forget something, I tend to look around for that certain something even though I have forgotten what is it. My mind is drifting away as if not focused and shifting from the norm. The thing is, I forgive and it takes time for me to forget. I may forget, but please do not remind me.

For-give-ness

Living in this world, I find that this is the toughest thing to do, especially on the spot. I have to admit the me myself have trouble with this and this has caused my heart to rot in pain. Yet, forgiveness is the key to be free of all the worries, guilt and the pain inside your heart.

I have a tendency to see people, deep in their heart what they feel and whenever they're hurt, I can tell from their made up smile. I can't do much, as I am just a small part of this vastly huge unexplored world. Sometimes I just look away and pretend to never look.

This made me sad because I felt the same way too.

The thing I really love about little children is how they play, fight and cry. Yet at the next moment still able to be the best of friends, forgetting totally the past. Forgiveness is divine and it is the only way to free yourself from all the hate and obsession of wanting to retaliate.

Last but not lease, forgiveness leads you to a path filled of peacefulness and as an example to others. There will come a time, when forgiveness is no longer common-place, that is where you will shine and shame their foolishness.

Remember, anger and resentment will not bring any good but forgiveness will make you live happier.

Life is an echo

Recently I stumbled into an article which talks about what comes around turns around. Whatever that you do there will always be consequences. I always believed in this and this is one of my life principles which I hold on to no matter what. I believe this applies to all people of all beliefs and races.

"Life is an echo. What you send out, comes back.

What you sow, you reap.

What you give, you get.

What you see in others, exists in you.

Remember, Life is an echo. It always gets back to you.

So give goodness."

If we do good to others, I believe they will do good to you. But for me, if others do bad to you, we shouldn't do bad to them but do your best to do what is best and always aim to do good no matter what. God is ever-loving  everlasting and ever-forgiving.

Forgive & forgetfulness

I've recently been approach by a fellow colleague who has been ignoring every initiative and attention I've given to provide the right hints to the successful completion of his project. Due to his late submission for his part of the project, other team members who have already completed their share are also affected.

This leads to a week-long late project submission to an important client which resulted in a very bad impression to my team and me as the project head. I am not angry nor disappointed due to this but my other team-members are enraged. As my personality goes, I'll just keep silent and see how it goes.

Today, the project is already finalized and due to better solutions our team has provided, we headed out to the township to celebrate. Since I don't drink, I've had a great dinner and even got forced into singing. The fellow ignorant colleague was also tagging along.

It seems that he wasn't aware that people around him were heated up but because of the project success things cool down. I though he forgot totally about it until I think he drank a little bit too much and suddenly went up to the stage to grab the microphone, sang a sad song and begged for forgiveness.

Well, that's quite a show, I am astounded as well but still can't say anything much. I'm a forgiving person and I will feel bad if I'm not forgiven. In my heart, even as he ignored me through-out the course of the project due to being more experienced and a fraction older, I forgive him.

Even so, despite my forgetfulness, I can't seem to forget what he did even after I've forgiven him. I guess it's just me. Despite how much it irritates, offend or hurt you forgiveness is a must. It must be quick and immediate as one will never know when one leaves this living world.
