"Stress... Is when your heart says no, but your mouth says, "Absolutely, I will do it the soonest..."
Today, I was wondering about things that are happening in my everyday life. I wake up early in the morning, around 5:30 am, cook rice so I can bring it to office and save a little for my savings, then take a shower, after I have prepared myself, I pick up my bag and wait for a jeep, but the funny thing is... I'm always late...
One day I saw a guy wearing a shirt with the design, it says about stress.. It made me smile, yet it made me think, I'm I stressed? Really.. I thought I was gonna laugh there out loud, but I realized I was inside a vehicle where no one knows me, and laughing will make them think I'm crazy..
But, reading again and again the thought about stress, what comes out first in your mind? Me.. Yes.. It is absolutely correct.. Saying yes to everybody, even if we really don't want it to do.. But, another question here is, why do we say "yes"?
I can consider myself, once in that situation, where, my whole heart says no but I actually said "yes"... It was a funny thought, a lot of people told me, I was so stupid to say yes, and actually I really wanted to say "no," but for the first time, I thought, why did I say yes in the first place... The answer was, I was curious what will be my life after that decision. Now I believe in the saying, curiosity killed the cat...
The thought here is that, in this life, we have the decision, the choice, that is why God gave us the free will to decide for ourselves. And to know what will be the results of our decisions, whether its good or bad, we just face it. Now, I admit, I am sad about how my life is right now. Because, I'm bored, I'm stressed, and I really don't like what is happening. Well, that's the result of my decision, but I say, just keep on going and there will come a time that I can fulfill my dreams. Just don't lose that hope, and pray.. Pray for strength.. Pray for patience..
Stressed? Just reverse the words, and you will have the sweetest one..
