Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

Looking Beyond 2010

As I sit and contemplate on what I have done during the past 10 months of 2010; I could not recollect anything else but only experiences of hardship, broken love, broken dream, broken promises and a sense of self instability.

It is has been a year of turmoil and a year not worth remembering because it only recalls painful memories. Yet, I also realized that this is part of growing up and growing old. Life is a journey and many times decisions that are made may not necessary be the right one all the times. I regret making some bad decisions but it is only fair to say that I did my best in the most difficult circumstances.

I have hurt people along the way; but I also realized that I am only human. The only way I see how these memories of bad time can heal is allow time to pass and find best ways to resolve them one by one. Trying to resolve problems in a rush will not necessary solve them; but may potentially make them worst.

Again, life is a journey..Without it, dull, distasteful and lacks of colors.

I have made a vow that I shall not walk away from the mistakes made without having them resolved. Rather, I will find the most suitable solutions to resolve them. For I am obligated to ensure that whatever happens has to be corrected.

I have gone through countless good memories; yet today my focus is on bad ones because I want to make sure that my future decisions and actions shall not be repeated. I will treat each one of my failures as slave and not my master; yet I shall learn from them.

Lost time realistically cannot be made up; but I want to ensure that my loved ones know that I am always there for them. It is them who may have distant themselves from me. I feel no regret but only to be encouraged that I am allowed the freedom to make choices on my own. Good or bad..They are mine.

As I sit and I contemplate further; I can only see better days ahead of me.

2010 has gone passed and 2011 will ring in another 56 days counting from today, November 5th 2010.

For now, I can only think to those days ahead which include Thanksgiving, Christmas, and of course the New Year's day celebration.
