friendship Surprise!

I honestly don't feel like blogging. But that would be so very typical of me if I give in to this immature feeling of not doing something that I've set myself to do. Talk about accountability so here goes.

I work here.



This is my office and I do the very same thing everyday. But as I have promised myself to find something extraordinary out of the ordinary, I stopped for awhile to find anything to be thankful for and this is what or rather who I found sitting quietly on one corner.


Friendship. She's not the only one but she's a very good representation of the wonderful relationships I have here. My bosses, yes you read it correctly, I am one of those few people who actually, sincerely love their bosses. Each and every person that is part of this dynamic team means dearly to me. From the sanitary engineers up to those in the highest step of the corporate ladder...I'd say I've shared hearty laughs with all of them.

And as I take these pictures, the events of the past week came into my mind. A lot of major transitions has happened and as expected the change was not welcomed by the majority. But gratefully, it was not big enough to severe any good relationships.

Thank You Lord for the friendships. Ay! Caramba!

Ay! Caramba!

Yesterday, I learned about the Glad Game (glad game explained). It was discussed in The Feast's special talk by Jon Escoto and it has really literally made my heart gladder and giddier. It was so inspiring that I made this blog based on one of the rules of the game: Rule #3. Re-orient your perspectives.

Rule no. 3 says that "facts and circumstances are immaterial." What is most important is the way you see things, how you look at things. It has always been our power to see and digest events in our lives differently. This choice will define the quality of our hearts and minds, the quality of life that we will live.

And with that I give birth to Ay! Caramba! I've made a decision that from this day on, I shall focus on at least one extraordinary ordinary event/thing/person in my life that will surprisingly bring a spice to an otherwise monotonous life. Let life surprise us... Ay! Caramba!
