Life is full of Surprises! Just don’t forget to learn from those!
Life is truly full of surprises. But these surprises, don’t often come in a way we want it. Sometimes, surprises come in a frustrating manner to teach us lessons for life.
This night is not a good night for me because of two reasons. First is that one of my free hosted blog has been flagged which means I could no longer earn from that blog which I admit my last two months of earnings comes from that blog. Well, it’s a goodbye and I can always start a new one. Anyway, good thing about that is one of their staff contacted me to apply the necessary changes to avoid my blog to be permanently suspended. In this first situation, I learned to Always read TOS or Terms of Services and other rules and most importantly, abide them!
Second, I got frustrated because of a certain situation. Here it goes. Last night, I’ve been seeking help to assist me with some technical problems I encountered to my other blog. Gladly this afternoon, I was able to find a help from someone I ALWAYS depended on. Please take note - ALWAYS. Then later tonight, I learned that somebody could no longer help me as I expected. So, I got frustrated. Frustrated because I’ve been waiting for a couple of hours for help but ended up to nothing. Frustrated too because I informed the concerned earlier that I badly need the expertise to do such things. Later did I realized, I was making myself dumb! I’m pretty useless. My bachelor’s degree is not justified by my acts. As all I just need to do, is to help myself, find resources, and BE PATIENT in reading and understanding every instructions given. I was not expecting to learn this lesson this way but as mentioned in my first statement - Life Is Full Of Surprises! Whether we like it or not, they come and go, come and go and life goes on.
Well, the lesson I learned from this experience is that - Too Much Dependence Will Lead You To Frustrations! I must admit, I learned long before that "too much" is always not good. But here I am, I’ve been too dependent to someone significant. I must also admit, that it is always my tendency to be dependent or shall I say it as a very wicked illness in me. Well, I think I’ve had enough for tonight and I believe I should try giving myself a rest from all these frustrating surprises in life. Sometimes, we really have to learn in a hard or painful way but at least, we learn. I am hoping I could stand alone starting from now. I am hoping not to be too much dependent anymore to anyone. Please wish me good luck! Till next time!
Sometimes, it’s frustrating when you expect someone to be there just as he usually does - but sometimes we also have to accept the fact that someday he’ll be leaving.. huhuhh.. http://cathchix.blogspot.com/2008/10/maybe-ill-be-on-my-own.html
