Confused and unsure about the best path to take. I know it stinks, but some people are having trouble finding work to launch their careers and make enough money to live and support their families. Every woman and man in their 20s is currently experiencing this, and I am aware that everyone of us experiences it in a unique way. It's challenging since we don't always choose the careers we want to because there are many competitors, and because we lack credentials as recent grads, we end up grabbing jobs that are not inclined with our degrees. But let me tell you it's okay. Life is a battle you have to win on your own. No one will g...

You know it's not your fault, that you created an "unbeatable champ" image on their minds. It is their way of perceiving things who did. Now if you're one of those who's been a consistent achiever all throughout your school years, and suddenly fell off the list, don't be ashamed or don't feel disappointed of not getting something, and not meeting other people's expectation, or your own expectations, as long you know in yourself that you did your best, you enjoyed the journey, you did not step on other people, you've been genuine to all, and most importantly you've learned a lot of lesson. In life, it's either you win or you lose. It's either you achieve or you don't. And take note that not all the time, things will turn...

A lot of questions has been circling in my mind just like a typical graduating student, trying to figure out what my life will become after this long schooling journey, but first let's be thankful cause this moment has come, we are already living in the "tomorrow" we are looking forward to happen before. Breathe cause at last, we are about to make another milestone in our lives. On your graduation day, just let go of all your worries even just for a while, live for that moment cause it will happen just as fast as blink of an eye, and when you blink close your eyes, don't open it first, no cheating! for you are about to imprint that feeling, and that memory in your heart, and make sure to always look back, and linger on that feeling whenever you feel ...

And when you speak, speak truthfully.  When you love, love faithfully. When you trip, get up gracefully. When you kiss, kiss passionately. When you live, make sure you live your life fully.  Master the language of love, truth and acceptance.  Master how to speak it impeccably . Master how to speak it fluently.  And when you already mastered it, that's when the magic will happen.  Happy V day everyone!  xoxo  - ofelijahnicolle  Photosource:  https://www.pinterest.ph/pin/2814818508537641/

The versatile one.  The idea they had of me, who was she? Little did they know the real me.  Yes, being praised by many gives me such a feeling sometimes, but that doesn't mean that everyone is just barely giving me praises.  Behind those praises there hides some envy.  Behind those praises there hides some judgements.  Behind those praises there hides some insecurity.  Behind those envy there hides some curses.  No matter how many friends I have , no matter how many times my family tells me that I am loved, no matter how many people admire me, I still have nothing. I still know nothing. I still don't exist. Nobody's knows that I am drowning, and when I am drowning that's the moment where I could only breathe.  Nobody hear me. They say I'm a gre...

It's ok to pause, and disappear for a moment in order for you to compose yourself again. You don't need to be hard on yourself because can't you see? the world is already being hard on you, why make yourself suffer more?Don't be so indifferent with your life.  Free yourself from the chaos of the world, and seek for your peace, because you know sometimes peacefulness will not always come from other people, it always come within us. True happiness will not always come from other people because our own happiness will always depends on how happy we want us to be. Everything will always be our choice. Everything will always depend on our decision. We cannot force something that doesn't works for us, so if you find yourself so overwhelmed by everything around you slow down, and temporarily distance yourself from others. When you find yourse...
