Life is Like a Cup of Coffee

Spiritual Story by Unknown

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got  together to visit their old university professor.  Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress  in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen  and returned with a large pot of coffee and  an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal,  some plain looking, some expensive,  some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to the coffee. When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand,  the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice  looking expensive cups have been taken up, leaving  behind the plain and cheap ones.  While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves,  that is the source of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee.  In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases  even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted  was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the  best cups...  And then you began eyeing each other's cups. Now consider this:  Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position  in society are the cups.  They are just tools to hold and contain Life,  and the type of cup we have does not define,  nor change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup,  we fail to enjoy the coffee.  Savor the coffee, not the cups!  "The happiest people  don't have the best  of everything. They just make . . . the best of everything."  SO. . .  Live simply.  Love generously. Care deeply.  Speak kindly. :)

WHAT A WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

beautifully written "maya - angelo" poem.  read this.:)


A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
enough
money within her control to move out
and rent a place of her own,
even if she never wants to or needs to...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .
something
perfect to wear if the employer,
or date of her dreams
wants to see her in an hour...

A WOMAN SHOULD
HAVE .
a youth she's content to leave behind....

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .
a past juicy
enough that she's looking forward to
retelling it in her
old age....
 A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .
a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .
one friend who
always makes her laugh.. and one who lets her cry...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .
a good piece
of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her
family...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .
eight
matching plates, wine glasses with stems,
and a recipe for
a meal,
that will make her guests feel honored...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
a feeling of
control over her destiny..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD
KNOW...
how to fall in love without losing herself..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to quit
a job,
break up with a lover,
and confront a friend
without
ruining the friendship...
EVERY WOMAN
SHOULD KNOW...
when to try harder... and WHEN TO WALK
AWAY..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
that she can't change the length of her calves,
the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents..
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
that her
childhood may not have been perfect...but it's over...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
what she
would and wouldn't do for love or more...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW....
how to live
alone... even if she doesn't like it...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW..
whom she can trust,
whom she can't,
and why she shouldn't take it personally...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
where to
go...
be it to her best friend's kitchen table..
or a
charming Inn in the woods....
when her soul needs
soothing...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW..
What she can and can't accomplish in a day...
a
month...and a year

ITS ALL AROUND. BUS RIDE.

330 in the morning. seemed that no one's active. except me and the driver. im on my way back here. too lazy and sleepy, but my passion ringed me more than a single alarm. so many things clouded,bombarded,lingered on my hemisphere then suddenly i found myself puzzling out,,, hay,,, *kainis talaga*. oh come on,, "pride detergent bar kase", i said, then he said, "pride chicken." haha!! oh well, yes were both corny and it doesnt matter anyway. (reminiscing)

2 months, 3 days.. i am afraid that this will last for a year or more. i thought everything's moving upward and unwavingly. and it was just a thought. oh and i can take off the control no more. nerve cracking it is. but what can i do? lintek na yan. haha. *kainis talaga!!!*

rushed out and currently catching up the mood. just having a hard time expressing the recent post-status-chaotic-euphoric slam. 

"i thought"

***covered court. i am sorry for mistakenly judging you. akala ko jinojoketime mo lang ako, tama ka andami ko doubts. pero kase para ka kaseng joketime palagi ung muka mo pangjoketime pa. pero i love it.  sabi mo baay. i thought its bahay. then to be more exact sabi mo covered court. 3 months na iniisip ko hindi ka tlaga matino kausap. and you're hiding a part of you. wanted ka ba at may pinagtataguan?? pero i deserved a slap. my mistake. and i am sorry. but its too late. and my fault. 

"you thought"

***gagawa ako ng aksidente. without further control i just uttered this one remember? got it? diba hinde. hay kung ano ano kase ang pinagiiisip mo. and ayoko na magexplain. kaya sabi ko bahala ka na. di tayo magmeet sa gitna. "di mo lang kase alam pinagdadaanan ko ngayon " sabi ko. sabi mo naman,"bat san ka ba dumadaan?" ako naman si gaga nakiride, "sa taft". hay bwiset. wala ng matinong paguusap. "maraming aksidente sa taft, magingat ka palagi ha", yan naman ang sabi mo. palagi tayo ganto, tipong, "please hear what i am not saying". ansakit sa ulo. pareho tayo gumagawa ng sakit sa ulo. 

IN GOD's TIME... 

haaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy........... . .. . . . . ... . . . . . . . ..
