Memories

Today, since I could not sleep because my brother woke me up with his loud and annoying snoring at 7 AM. I started to think of what to write on my blog today. Suddenly I remember reading a great blog by Richard about memories. Then I decided to write my own point of view about memories and after thinking for a few minutes I concluded that memories are a brief recollection of the past. Usually our memories have a strong impact on us that is why we remember them in the first place. Memories usually are put into two categories; there are joyful memories and memories of infernal times in our lives. The joyful memories bring back happiness and warmth to our hearts, but they probably do not affect us a much as the painful memories. Painful memories are like a scar in our lives that we never forget they are there and never go away as long as we live. They affect one's life in a horrific manner. Every time we see, hear, or do anything that reminds us of that moment in time, we fall into a deep hole of sorrow and sadness that is hard to get out of, but memories have its purpose in life, they are there to remind us that the world is a cruel and dishearten place and that we need to create more memories of joy to compensate for the ones of sorrow and to remind us of the purpose of living. Further more memories remind us that we need to be fair and kind to others because the world is cruel and full of bad memories as it is we need to work together to have a better tomorrow in these cold, and dishearten place we call earth, and not make it harder for each other to enjoy life or else life as we know it would be a waste of time!

Keep in mind that remembering is reliving lets make memories of joy not of sorrow!

Life in General

Yesturday as I was sitting at home, just as I am every friday night, I was looking for something to keep myself busy, but since I could not find anything to do to occupy my intrest I started to thinkof how boring my life is. I know Mr. Locke "only boring people are bored." Then put me down as a boring person because most the time I am as bored as apiece of wood. Then it came to me that life is one of does things that we have no control over. Basically life is unexpected, unpredictable, and uncontrolable events that take place in chronological order. We cannot turn back time and correct our mistakes, but we can learn from them and use that knowledge in the future. By the same token, we are not able to go forward in time, but what we can do is take what we learned from the past and put it to the test in the future. In life we cannot control what fate has in store for us, instead we are forced to make diffilcult decisions in order to solve the chanllenges that life throws at us. Granted they may not always be the right decision, but keep in mind that is only through faiure that we succeed. Sure does mistakes we make might be painful and difficult to swallow, but it is only through darkness that we learn to appreciate the light. Life is a difficult thing to understand and appreciate, but then again no one ever promised easy. In the end if we learned to appreciate life along with all its mysteries, wonders, and hardships, then we will be able to understand the true meaning of life. Life is a game that has no continues and in consequence, we cannot dwell on the past, we have to play with the cards we are dealed with and hope to make the future better. Further more it is only through experiences of hardship and joy that we will acquired the knowledge necessary to grant us the key that will open the doors to the hopes and dreams we want to accomplish ultimately in our lifetime.

Remember the only thing you can control in life is yourself, so take full advantage because in the game of life you only get one shot make the best of it before the time comes for you to have to say game over!

Dreams

Dreams are a symbol of the things we hope to have and are unable to get or have not work hard enough to make them a reality like my english teacher says "you can spit in one hand and hope in the other and see which one fills up first." One can have all the dreams in the world, but is what one does to make does dreams a reality. Be a man( or woman) of action not words.
