GET MY POINT.

"I am not trying to bring you ease and I do not seek to minimize the disaster you have suffered: if fate is conquered by tears, let us muster them to shed; let every day pass amid grief, let sleepless melancholy consume the night; let blows rain down on our bleeding chests and our very faces feel their violence, if it will serve our purpose, let grief practice every kind of savagery. But if not amount of wailing recalls the dead, if all distress is powerless to alter a fate that is unchangeable and fixed for ever, if death holds fast whatever it has carried away, let sorrow, which runs its course, cease." - Seneca

This post is based on one of my albums in my facebook  account which is entitled, "Some of the saddest people have the most beautiful smiles". If you open this album, you'd see various pictures of me smiling.

It's ironic to say that a person shows happiness to everybody but deep inside feels sad. I'm not really saying that I'm aint happy it's just that since people always see me smiling, laughing, and bubbling around  more often not, they already thought I am a problem-free person. Well, it's really my personality to always have a positive disposition in life. I grew up to be like that the see-the-brighter-side thingy. It's not really pretending, It's more like being POSITIVE and getting negativity outside my shell. It helps somehow with how I deal with life. I don't wanna get stucked  of being unhappy.

Speaking of which, I know most of guys would not believe that I have experienced hardships in life. Oh well, I'm used to that. People always misunderstood me. The title of my album says it all already, clearly, you can't judge a book by its cover. Never ever judge a person based on what you think because you're not really defining the person, you define yourself and as what I read somewhere, If you judge a person, you don't have a time to love them. 

I have known few people who are like me. They have lived well, and more importantly, they are happy despite of the sad happenings they have been through. I'm not saying here that you are no longer have the right to be sad, to feel sad. As always, It's okay to feel the pain but it's not good to nurture it. Feel the pain until it hurts no more.

...but the BEST thing to do when in pain is to surrender it all to God. Believe and have faith in Him. After all, His plans are way far better than ours. So lemme tell you this, God already planned everything in your life sometimes it's just too difficult to understand but always remember, God wouldn't give you a problem if He knows you can't handle it. 

And as what Jeremiah 29:11 says,  

Notice that He says, For I know the plans I have for you. It doesn’t say that someone else knows . Only God knows. What I do know is that whatever His plans are will lift me higher and bring me much joy. I am staying fixed on His promises and I hope you are too. :)
