'Don't live it playing safe'

^^Got it from PMae's blog.



Live by it.
You know, I really think, the best people to meet are people who worked hard and let go of old habits. It shows how strong they've become in their faith. Now, I'm not talking religious, I'm talking in general. When was the last time you were so proud of letting go? What I mean by letting go is, letting go the past mistakes. Decisions, steps you took that lead you into the wrong path. And YOU KNEW it was bad, but when you've realized what you've done, you lost comfort and all hope. But for some people, they've learned to get back up. Knowing you have a lot ahead of your life that you never expected coming.

I blog, for what reason? Because, in journals, blogs, diaries, whatever; I can learn to be myself, and to express the feelings that I've felt towards myself, and others. It's not just a guide for my life to look back upon, it's a lesson. A reflection of who I was to who I am now.

This morning, I stayed up again until 3am chatting with a friend, who I wouldn't have expected to just sit and chat with him. He has a good heart. Made mistakes in life, took things for advantage. But he know's that all is forgiven, and that there are so much more things he could commit to other than being under the influence. To be honest, I've never been there, I've never met someone who has gone through so much, so much compiled when he confessed, but really it wasn't ok for me to be discussing it with him. He said he was comfortable with me telling me this. But what I didn't expect from myself was that, I didn't feel comfortable. Looking at the words he texted, it urged me to help. I've given him so much of what I could think of, for him to prevent from doing it again. It's not cause he did it before, I just don't want him to go through it again. I met a friend, or I wouldn't even consider him as a friend since we don't talk anymore. He was a great guy I was comfortable talking to him. Until he told me he smokes more than drinking. The thing is, I'm ok with drunk people, it gets to the head, and mind. But smoking, gets into the head, and the heart. Temptations will come, that is why we all need to be prepared. To fill our minds with eager thoughts so that we're able to refuse an invitation to the unforgiven past.

I know we'll become great friends.
We all share the same sorrows, and when you think of it, it brings people together, to help each other to love eachother to tell them that people are given second chance, that people can be forgiven.
