Knowing Who You Really Are!

Here's a quote that I would like to share about "Being Yourself". Just like my previous post, "Love yourself", right now I would like to repeat the idea of Loving and Being Yourself... :)

Words to live by:

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."

-- Dr. Seuss

Who you are is something you should be proud of! Each one of us were created by God uniquely. Each one of us has our own differences and we should be happy about it. Yes, there would be similarities but each of us are totally a different person!

My mom used to tell me before, when people smiles at you, it means that they see who you really are. But when you them frowning then it means something is not good about you! These are simple gestures that most people do in order to know the person or communicate with the person in front of them. True that when people is happy about what show them then of course they would smile at you. When some people see something awful about you, for sure they wouldn't be happy and would just frown.

ME!

What do I like about me? (You should know who you are)

1) I am my parent's daughter - I am proud that my parents were always supportive, loving and understanding.

2) I am a hardworking wife and mother - I work hard to save for my family's future. I don't ask money, I work for every cents.! :) I love this trait of mine and proud of my ability to find good work and being thrifty! :) I know I am workaholic but I always find time to be with my hubby and daughter,.. Besides, this is for all of US!

3) I love butterfly - I know a lot of people loves butterfly and I am not the only one! :) but since I was a kid, I always loved butterfly. Not only that I that, I thank God for giving me a butterfly birth mark found on my forehead. Isn't it nice? LOL!

4) I love to collect stuff - bratz dolls, stuff toys, tazmanians, elmos, butterflies, barbies, shoes, boots, bags, perfumes and a lot more. I cherish every little thing that I have!

5) I love being a Happy - Person! - I smile and I always start my day with a smile. Smiling is even the best make up or cover up when you are sad. I would rather hide my sadness or pain to other people than make them see I am sad and affect them in some ways. I would rather hold and keep my own problems than worry more people of my personal issues. :) Although, I share some to my closest friends, best friends, mother, hubby, and well of course, telling God all my burdens and pains through Prayer. They are my strength and they are always there for me! They are also the ones that make me smile and happy every DAY!

6) Love - I am so blessed with LOVE and Happiness. God is so good for giving the People I know right now! All of them. For my family, friends, colleagues, bosses, and even classmates during my school days. All of them were treasured, all of them makes me THE ENTIRE ME right now!

and more... I just love WHO I AM!

How about you? What do you love about yourself? How much do you know yourself?

You don't have to act or pretend being someone else, Just be yourself! You can make people happy with the simple YOU! You don't have to change yourself because of other people, as long as you continue to be YOU, then you are on the right track... Please read the last quote below that I want to emphasize the importance of BEING YOURSELF!

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."

Thank God For The Perfect Family!

Perfect Family means: “Other things may change us, but we start and end with family”

Words to live by:

“Those who have children can become masters of patience, endurance, and steadfastness, because children will test you at every turn. …The way to make our children patient and loving is to be that way ourselves.”-- Eknath Easwaran

This picture was taken last December 2010. A great family picture (My hubby, my daughter and me).

This post, I just want to share that it is indeed great to be a wife and most especially being a MOM.

August 2, 2009, I gave birth to a lovely baby girl. She brought happiness and love. She's a precious gift that God gave to me. It is true that being a mother or father, it will make you the master of patience, endurance and steadfastness because your child or children will surely test you in every way.

I was able to bring the WHOLE and BEST of me since the day I became, MOTHER. She made me feel complete because I got to do things I never did before. My baby taught me how to become a better person because I managed to do things on my own like being mature to decide on important things, and a lot more. It wasn't easy, it was even tiring but it was WORTH IT!.. :)

*My hubby and I would take turns to wake up in the middle of the night to change our baby's diaper or feed her with milk.

*My hubby and I were too busy to look for more and more decent jobs to support our financial needs.

*My hubby and I were very careful of our decisions because every decision that we make should be beneficial for the three of us.

There are more things and I may not be able to mention all of them, but believe me, everything that we learned made us, THE BETTER PERSON, THE GOOD PARENTS.

I would like to thank GOD for giving me this perfect Gift! This way HIS way of teaching me how to become a better person. This was HIS way of showing me how beautiful LIFE is and how to appreciate life.

You don't have to hurry of becoming a parent, hence don't have to rush of having a family because the right time will come in the most unexpected moment. Just wait till God decides for you like He did to me.

God Loves You - Love Yourself!

Words to live by: "One word frees us from the weight and pain of life; that word is love." --Sophocles

I got this email early this morning telling us how to develop "Self Satisfaction" and teaching us how to love OURSELVES!



I believe that this should be something that we should all contemplate or take into consideration:

1. "You are good." 2. "You are wanted." 3. "You are loved for yourself." 4. "You are seen for who you are." 5. "Your needs are not a problem." 6. "You are safe." 7. "You will be taken care of." 8. "You will not be betrayed." 9. "Your presence matters."
10. "You are happy because you are, who you are."

There might be people who wanted to hear and feel all these from others before they would really accept themselves fully. Guess what? All these are actually already attained. It doesn't have to be from all people, think of the people who's there with you all these times.. Who already showed you they care and let you feel they loved you!

Corresponding to each number, think of at least one person that you think has already done that to you! I am pretty sure that you will get the perfect 10!


When you love yourself, love yourself wholeheartedly. It is not enough to say " I LOVE MYSELF"! You have to know who you are! You have to be contented of what you have in order to love yourself freely.
Knowing yourself better would start with knowing your strengths and your shortcomings.

No one is perfect so there's no need to worry of competing with others,you don't have to try hard of becoming someone else or even accomplishing something that is beyond your capabilities. You can just be yourself and show everyone who and what you are! You know the best word to describe it? "BE HUMBLE".

Lastly, I want to share this last quote I received:

"Oh the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are -- chaff and grain together -- certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with the breath of kindness blow the rest away."

-- Dinah Mulock

Say these:

I thank _____ for being there me, always, for the love and care! For my family, being supportive and continue to love me for who and what I am. My friends, who are always there to cheer me up when I am down. And most of all.... I thank the Lord above for giving me the strength to overcome all my problems and for helping me understand that everything happens for a reason. I thank Thee for keeping me safe at all time!

True Happiness means YOU!

KNOWING WHAT HAPPINESS MEANS IS VERY IMPORTANT!

Words to live by:

“Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.” -- Denis Waitley

What is happiness for you?

I never understood happiness before. Until I've read the quote above. We need to understand ourselves in order to understand happiness. Once we find that inner peace, contentment, and joy, WE WILL TRULY BE HAPPY!

People who are asking or wishing for happiness --- it's because they have not discovered those in themselves yet. They still look for something else in the outside world and failed to see what inside of them.

Once a bad girl who never been contented of life. Party-Goer and Drunkard sometimes. Work and spend money by buying expensive things. I thought I was happy before until I realize that the lifestyle I had won't do anything good to me. True happiness would only be discovered if we let go of the negative things that we actually enjoy.

True Happiness will be affected with the way we feel and act or behave. If you won't sincerely search for happiness and force yourself to be blinded with the things that won't really benefit you, you will end up UNHAPPY.

True happiness isn't out there!

So take time to discover the real life's treasure so you would b

e truly happy and this is what I have found in myself.

I married an understanding husband 2 years ago. I gave birth to a sweet baby girl.

Both of them made me feel so happy and contented of my life. I could not ask for more! There's peace in me and I have important things to think of to make my life and family wealthy of love and happiness. I don't have to buy expensive things because I learned how to save money for my family's future.. and THAT explains MY TRUE HAPPINESS.

So, how about you? When will you start searching for the real happiness and peace?

Start looking deep down inside of you!

Here's something I wanted to add by Marshall Goldsmith:

"The great Western disease is, ‘I'll be happy when… When I get the money. When I get a BMW. When I get this job.’ Well, the reality is, you never get to when. The only way to find happiness is to understand that happiness is not out there. It's in here. And happiness is not next week. It's now."

-- Marshall Goldsmith
