5 People in your life to Look Out for!

Have you ever wondered why we meet the people we met? Will they play a major role in our in own story? What are their roles in our lives?

We are the lead actors of our lives. 

Whether you agree or not, your life is a big and long story. It can be dramatic, action, romantic and sometimes boring. No man is an island, so they say. Maybe that is why we meet different people in a daily basis. Mostly a large percentage of those people will just pass by and leave us with a lesson that we will never forget. A few percentage of those people will stay. Sometimes for a good reason and sometimes not.

Here are the 5 persons to look out for in your life.

Romeo / Juliet

Everyone knows their love story. It is a tragedy to what happened to them but nonetheless, their story is envied by most of us. Who would not want to find their true love? Someone whom you will love unconditionally and return that love back to you.
In reality, a lot of us are really looking out for “the one’. If you found him/her, don’t ever let him/her go. A man is made for a woman and vice versa. This saying used the article “a”, meaning singular which means that we only get one shot at true love or to find “the one”. If you are not sure to know whether s/he is the one, click this link. click this.
But of course, this is an exception if you are called to a religious vocation like priesthood.

Ross, Rachel, Chandler, Monica, Joey and Phoebe

If you don’t know them, they are from the hit television series, “F.R.I.E.N.D.S.”.  Yes, the persons you should be looking out for are your friends. We have a lot of friends but what I’m talking about are the friends who will always be there for you, not only in your greatest times of need but also in your merriment. They would be the persons who will always lecture you about what is right and what is wrong. These are the people whom you trust the most. You could tell them anything about you and still won’t judge because they accept who you are and what your personality is. Keep them!  Even though there are misunderstandings, you’ll all solve it and stay together. They are your second family.

Agent P (Perry the Platypus)

There are two ways that a person can be your Agent P.

1. There is that one person who will always ruin your day. He will keep distracting you and stop you from carrying out your plans.

In this case, you are not actually an evil person. It’s just that there is really that one person who might do this to you. Avoid that person. He will just stress you out and keep you paranoid.

2. There is just one person who will interfere with your wrong doings and stop you from ruining yourself/others.

In this case, you are doing something wrong and there is this one person who will ALWAYS stop you from doing it. Your initial reaction will be to hate that person for interfering with you plans and you will avoid him but in the long run, one way or another, you will be thankful for him one day. Keep that person near. It’s not like every day that we have someone who cares about us.

Delilah

“Keep your friends close and your enemies closer”

You will hear this line from different movies out there. It’s a motto of a Delilah. She will get close to you just to know your weaknesses or maybe your strategies. You will trust her and like her but in the end, she will leave you once she got whatever it is she wants from you.
Look out for her and be cautious. The great way to know is to observe that person. Not all the Delilahs out there are evil. Maybe they were just ordered by someone but they really like you. It could be that she is just envious with what you have. That is why it is really great to observe her and dig deeper. Maybe you could help her and she might change and be your friend!

King Solomon

King Solomon is known for his wisdom and just judgments. Watch out for you own King Solomon. He could be a friend or a relative. He is someone you truly trust and look up to as a wise person. It is that feeling when you have a problem and you just know that this person has the answers or that he will give you an advice that will lead the way to the answer. He is that someone who’ll help, inspire and teach you which way to go.

Look out for him. He could be with you right now. Maybe he has the answer to your dilemma; he just needs you to ask. Keep this person near you as well. You will learn a lot from him.

These are just 5 of the many people you must look out for. Maybe they’re already with you. You’re just not looking.

How To: 2 Ingredients to be Genuinely Happy

Happiness. Some would say that they don't know what happiness is. When you ask them, they would say "I don't know how to be happy". Some people would say that they are happy with no reason but actually there is. They just don't know why or don't know how to voice it out. If you fall into one of the categories, this article will give you tips on how to be happy or give you the answers why you are happy. If you don't fall into either the categories, this will help you to have a deeper understanding of that feeling we call "Happiness".

These are the 2 ingredients on how to be genuinely happy.

OPTIMISM

Happiness is a choice. I know you have read this quote like everywhere, every time but this is actually true.  If you want to be happy, you could be happy. You can! All you have to do is to choose to be happy. The only problem is when you are facing a very depressing situation. This is where optimism enters. Yes, there are times that it is actually hard to be happy. All you have to do is to look at the situation on its positive side. Think that everything happens for a reason. All you have to do is to find that reason and be positive about it.

There is beauty in everything.

Don't let negativity blind you in seeing these beautiful things around you. These could be the reason why you are happy or how you can be happy. These reasons could be your life, family, friends, food, safety and many more.  The other reason is that the situation is a part of life and plainly inevitable.  

“Happiness is the mental or emotional state of well-being which can be defined by positive or pleasant emotions raging from contentment to intense joy.” - Wikipedia

CONTENTMENT

In contentment, there are 4 factors.

WHO YOU ARE

You have to accept who you are. Be happy with yourself. Don’t be ashamed of what your name is and where you are from. Be truthful of who you are inside and what your talents are.  Discarding these things may be the reason why you are unhappy. Rejecting who you are may shadow the greatness inside you.

WHO YOU'RE WITH

This includes your family, friends, relatives, partner and even your pets. They are the ones who are always there for you in your hour of greatest needs or in your glorious times. You may not actually see them as such when you don’t accept them for what they are.
For example, your family is not a wealthy one and you’re ashamed of that. (There are many movies with this kind of plot) Well you shouldn’t be because at the end of the day, they are still your family. Accept this and in no time you will see how they can make you happy.

WHAT YOU HAVE

Happiness is not in the worldly things in the world, it’s inside you.
You have to be contented with what you have. Yes, it doesn’t hurt to want more but before wanting more, make sure that you accept what you have first. Wanting more should be because what you have right now is not enough for your NEEDS or GROWTH because wanting things in excess is called GREED.

WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE

Always remember that we can’t always have what we want but we always get what we deserve and what is good for us. If you really want something, WORK hard for it. If you don’t get what you want, be happy and contented for what you will get in the future. Make use of it and in the long process, you might end up getting what you want.



Like in the first ingredient, you have to choose happiness if you want to be happy. Take it this way, in life there are tons of choices we have to make but all of them will lead you to where you deserve to be. It’s just either you chose the hard way or the easy way. In whatever choice you make, choose to be happy with it. 

Don’t be contented with just dreams. PLAN.ACT.SUCCEED and BE HAPPY!

How To: 8 Signs to Know if Your Partner is "THE ONE"

How well do you know your partner? Is your partner “THE ONE”? If you want to find out, check the 8 signs on how to know if your partner is “THE ONE”.

At present, couples marry at a very young age then get divorced or annulled after some time. It’s quite frustrating that people just treat marriage as if it is a simple thing that once you get bored or exhausted you just quit. So before you actually think of settling down with your partner, make sure you read this article!

Here are the 8 signs to know if your partner is the one:

LOVE

One of the most misinterpreted word in the world. When we talk of love, it is not just about feelings. Yes you’ve heard that before. “Love is a choice”. Yes you’ve heard that one as well but you know what? Love is not a choice.

Love is a must! 

 Why? It’s because people can’t live without love. Some might say “not really” but in reality people have feelings whether you like it or not. Loving someone is not at all rainbows and butterflies. You truly love someone if you can give up or sacrifice that one most special thing for you or a part of yourself just for that person. It’s like how God gave His only Son for us whom He loves.

TRUST

Trusting your partner may be a little hard for some especially when they have trust issues. But it is not only a must that you do because how can you love someone whom you do not trust. Yes there will be times that you’ll doubt one another but that is alright. It doesn’t mean that you don’t trust your partner. You’re just scared of being left behind or cheated. Another thing is 

“It’s not only that you trust your partner, it is necessary that you trust yourself too”.   

You can say that you truly trust your partner and yourself if at the back of your mind, you stop asking yourself what ifs and you stop defending yourself or your partner in certain things. In trusting, you don’t need an explanation, you just know.

SENSITIVITY

It is when you can talk about everything without hurting each other or without the other one getting mad or lonely. Yes it may be inevitable but if you have sensitivity within your relationship, talking around certain topics, like the past or persons your partner dislike, would be very easy and not at all too emotional but of course sensitivity also requires that you choose and use your words wisely.

”Think before you speak, Rethink before you act”.

COMPATIBILITY

Another misinterpreted word is compatibility. When you say compatibility, it is not about liking the same movies, having the same things, listening to the same genre of music or doing the same hobbies.

“Compatibility is not having the same likes but having the same wants”.

 They say that opposites attract therefore if you are compatible and you are totally different from one another, you must always meet halfway to meet your wants. Compromising is the key and if that worked then you are totally compatible.

COMFORTABILITY

You can say that you’re comfortable with one another when you can talk about your insecurities and greatest fears with each other. It is when you can just be yourself completely knowing that your partner can handle you and will not leave you. Being comfortable is showing your best and worst side to your partner and vice versa.

This also comes with acceptance. 

You must accept the fact that your other half is like that and you just love every side of him/her no matter their flaws.

SECURITY

Along with being comfortable with one another is being secured with one another.  

Security means two things: being protected and having confidence with each other. 

 Secured as being protected means you know that in a crisis you will be protected and that you will also protect the other. Protection can be physical, emotional or social. For example, you are harassed in social media. You know your partner will come and defend you. While in confidence, you are secured when you trust your partner and yourself as I had said earlier. It can be that you are confident in what the other one is doing or you are confident to say that you are in a relationship with your partner.

MATURITY

Maturity is NOT when you stopped acting childish because in the first place you will not know it’s childish if you are not mature. Maturity is not only when you stop fighting over silly or small things.

 Maturity is facing the problems face-to-face and making the right decisions regarding the matter. 

There is always a way. Couples that break up after having problems must be mature enough to admit that they just don’t want to try the “way” and that instead they walked away. If a couple decided to go in the “way”, they must be mature enough to walk ahead and lose some of themselves in order to gain a lot more. You cannot gain if you don’t have enough space to store it.

VISION – MISSION-GOAL

It is important that you both have the same vision for the future and that both of you are working very hard to make that vision a reality. Creating a vision is easy. Dreaming is in man’s nature but if you don’t put yourself to act you will never get that dream.

 Being a visionary, mission-oriented and goal-driven couple is hard work  

but if you worked very hard you’ll reach that goal. If you are a couple who don’t have any vision for the future then start making one and if you think it’s hard work, yes  it is!

These are the 8 signs if your partner is “THE ONE”. If s/he is all these then you’re definitely on the right track. If you are the one who lack some of these signs, make sure you practice these steps within your relationship. Also, make sure to pass this on your partner and let him/her read for themselves. This could just save you!
