Lately, this year we mourn the passing of some of the famous clebritties and politicians in the Philippines and and majority were touched by how this people contributed in some way to the hearts of the many. Some says it was a great loss as he still have so many things to do here others are just casual and embrace the the new journey that he will take part.
Lets look at the burial of Dolphy Quizon, A comedy King as they say. contributed a lot in the Film Industry, a great man with a great humor, many blessed children with a loving partner. At age 83, they say its still too young and still many more to do and share. The typical mourning with each and everyone saying so many good things to the person, some shared the happy moments when he was a alive, others just simnply sing for the sake of being present. there was also a shared laughing when a celebirity comedian joked about how this man and his children were brought up. I can see that the people grieved and affected with his loss, so much has been said with his passing but the end of the day, the normal activities of this common "Tao" again started.
Another case just recently is the passing of what they say a Public Servant that hates Advertising and imaging himself on the credits that he made in his works. Jesse Robredo again touches the lives of the Filipino people with his simple life doing of works and reaches out the very least common masses. The entire nation mourn on his unttimely death. The Admnistration of Pnoy gave him the highest rank of recognition for his great work yet never was published nor sensationlized to the public. I kept wondering while I was back home then hat his name was never brought up nor I heard that his doings were already been recognized. I simply cant remember that he already touches the lives of this people even way back to his home town Naga. I must admint he was just wanted to work and do the best without making it more complicated and publicized.
Dont seem to understand but let the reader judge on how State Funeral will be celebrated or mourned. They say that they dont want the person who died to see that his love ones are suffering to the loss,others want to just simply mourn quiet and respect the families with great outmost condolences.
Starting out again is never easy. Disappointments come and go but life still moves on. So, no matter what problem you are facing, you can always start afresh, with God guiding you through. And there is always a glint of hope even in the darkest hour. -Lawrence-
Changing careers in midlife can be an opportunity for you to…
get in touch with your dreams and passions
imagine new possibilities
design a life/work based on your life purpose
create a better balance between your work and your life
But midlife can also be a time of confusion and uncertainty.
What used to be true for you may no longer be a good fit.
You feel lost and unsure about the road ahead.
And maybe you don’t feel like you have choices at all… you’re forced to find a new direction due to lay-offs, restructuring, or health issues.
“In the middle of the journey of our life I came to myself within a dark wood where the straight way was lost.” ~ Dante Alighieri
Dante’s description of midlife, written in the 14th century, is still true today. We spend the first half of our lives following the “straight way”, living by others’ rules and expectations. But in the second half of life you have the chance to figure out what you want to do and discover who you really are. Today, it’s possible to make a career change after 50. It’s like standing at a crossroads. One road stands for safety and security, and the other leads to creativity and growth. You know you feel dissatisfied and restless, and yearn for something more, but thinking about midlife career changes can be frightening. You haven’t yet learned how to create your own path out of the forest.
New Possibilities
“We must be willing to give up the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.” ~ Joseph Campbell
I believe what we call a “midlife crisis” is the discomfort we feel as our true selves struggle to be recognized. It’s important for you to grieve the loss of your former self and then let go. Only then are you truly free to begin exploring and discovering, preparing to move forward once again. Follow Your Bliss
Changing careers can be a way for you to express your new identity in the world. Joseph Campbell often spoke about the importance of following your bliss. To follow your bliss means to find out what it is that you are truly passionate about and then commit yourself to it. By committing yourself, you fulfill your potential and at the same time can be of authentic service to others.
The ancient Greeks had a word, kairos, which meant a critical or defining moment in your life, a turning point. What matters is not the moment itself, but what you do with that moment. Do you let your true self emerge and pursue your dream, or do you stay where you are?
The Secret describes the law of attraction
as a natural law that determines the complete order of the universe and
of our personal lives through the process of "like attracts like." That
is, as we think and feel, a corresponding frequency is sent out into
the universe that attracts back to us events and circumstances on that
same frequency. For example, if you think angry thoughts and feel angry,
you will attract back events and circumstances that cause you to feel
more anger. Conversely, if you think and feel positively, you will
attract back positive events and circumstances. The law claims that
desirable outcomes such as health, wealth, and happiness can be
attracted simply by changing one’s thoughts and feelings.
The law of attraction takes cues from "The Master Key System"[citation needed] and from Napoleon Hill's classic Think and Grow Rich. Behavioral psychologist Alfred Adler
pioneered a means of therapy called "act as if" in which patients, as
part of the therapy, were instructed to "act as if" they already had the
confidence, mental strength, etc they desired.[citation needed] Many patients did see success with this type of therapy
More and more people are undergoing some procedures that sometimes they called it, “under the knife” beauty enhancement. . To them it is an easy and simple way to look more confident and attractive and to make this

"Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you." - Lao Tzu
A minimalist eschews the mindset of more, of acquiring and consuming and shopping, of bigger is better, of the burden of stuff. A minimalist instead embraces the beauty of less, the aesthetic of spareness, a life of contentedness in what we need and what makes us truly happy. A minimalist realizes that acquiring stuff doesn't make us happy. That earning more and having more are meaningless. That filling your life with busy-ness and freneticism isn't desirable, but something to be avoided. A minimalist values quality, not quantity, in all forms.
Your minimalist life will be different than mine. You'll need to figure out what makes you happiest. Plan your ideal day. Then strip your life of the non-essentials, to make room for this ideal day, for the things and people
you love. I still remember Gandhi lived a very simple, frugal life. He died with very few possessions and he preached simplicity and minimalism in all areas of life. He also dressed simply and even persisted with his simple Indian loin cloth when he visited England and met the King. When asked if he was under dressed for a meeting with the King, Gandhi replied that the King had enough clothes on for both of them!
Minimalism is something I am beginning to apply in my life too. To get you started, please check out this excellent “Minimalist Guide” from my blogging mentor and friend Leo Babauta of Zen Habits. Start living a simpler minimalistic life from today – and you will release a lot of time and energy to bring more of Gandhi’s teachings into the world. Believe in your cause, follow your truth and stick to your journey even if you have to walk the path on your own. Gandhi at the end of his life was said to be heart broken with the partition of India as millions were killed and displaced. Even then, he still had a message for the world – it takes just one man to make a difference.
I would not qualify to be labeled as a minimalist but the idea does intrigue me.
For example I got interested in purchasing a condo unit. I bought one and loved it. Rather than just appreciating that one, I needed a more sophisticated and a bigger one! Not only did I need a bigger one but two or more would be even better! I ended up with 4 of it to schedule, re structure and allocate it for my monthly amortization. I felt surprise to know of having them in just easily as that and at the same time I got to step back and think, I am single why am i acquiring assets as many as this since I dont have someone or even somebody to share this I couldn't believe the relief I felt knowing I had one less to take care of! I can see how living more minimally would be a bit liberating and debt free haha.
When we are simple in our thoughts, we are simple in our responses to the outer environment i.e., to both situations and people. So internally we are able to remain content. This contentment further brings newness and creativity in the way we respond to situations, and we naturally experience further progress. When we think of our weaknesses as 'our' nature, we will not be able to overcome them. When there is the feeling of 'mine' there is a feeling of belonging, and naturally we feel a right to use that weakness. When we work with any weakness we will not be able to maintain stability. So I decided to come to my conclusion when you you live the life in a minimalistic way, you will end up living in a very simple and contented way.
I ask this to myself at my stage right now after everything I earned and succeeded. I guess "Life without purpose is a life unlived." Seeking for achievement is not only for young and aggressive but can also be applied to those who are seasoned and satisfied. Whenever there is a big accomplishment, make sure you to use your full potential. Life Without Purpose . . . Possibly a Good Thing? I can only imagine seeing myself now without struggling to be different, to be somebody, to be a better person. A life without a purpose is a life without destination, your going to somewhere without exact place and a definite vision. That is something that I always ask myself if ever I encounter some difficulties in the past. Was I not good enough to be accepted on this position? It always fall into places where you are right destined and you work harder on it. Purpose provides for passion and meaning to replace tedium and aimlessness. The question “Why Am I Here?” goes much deeper than finding what career is best for you. Finding a purpose is ultimately a spiritual endeavor because it involves a process of connecting with something greater than yourself.
"Without God, life has no purpose, and without purpose, life has
no meaning. Without meaning, life has no signficance or hope.
.. The greatest tragedy is not death, but life without purpose"
-- Rick Warren
Purpose always works its way out in action because passion is, at root, a matter of desire. Deliberately planned behaviors motivated by completely acknowledged desires result in the actions that move you and your circumstances into the life most appropriate to who you really are. Your life changes. The world changes because any person with a fully realized purpose cannot help but become a change-agent.
Purpose requires passion but can never be centered on lust, which is the will to dominate or control without associated feelings of love and affection. A genuine purpose always results in lifting one’s self and the world. A self-centered life will inevitably be flooded by the forces of stress, fatigue, and dissatisfaction that the working out of a genuine purpose will always alleviate. “The most important human endeavor,” Einstein wrote, “is the striving for morality in our actions. Our inner balance and even our very existence depend on it. Only morality in our actions can give beauty and dignity to life.” But in reality mostly in the market that is hunger for success, Lust always in the center of the purpose and meaning to get what they want. Its sad but that's how the system works in the corporate world.
Our PURPOSE might be to leave the world a better place than the way we found it, or to make everyone we meet happier. Either of these purposes would be noble and achievables. Another way would be to treat others with kindness, generosity, honesty, and respect. Our goal should be not merely to be good, but to be good for something. Its like that we as an individual should possess a true value of unselfishness loving and caring for someone. We need to be careful to choose a PURPOSE that will help us to grow, help our potential unfold, and help us transcend our present limitations. Our potential is staggering. We are co-creators of the universe. God has made us partners in creation. He created the universe. We created music. He created the world. We created the pyramids. He created life. We created language that allows us to reflect on life. Lastly, the benefit of living a life of purpose is to have a "Growth",you expand your horizon and discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you can ever imagine.
