For life is not just about how we will live comfortably, or just about the good and the pleasurable things life may bring us, as we all hope it to be. But it's how we deal with rough roads, molehills and even the mountains each of us will have to trudge as we go through life; with a lot shimmying when edges are sharp, while others can go cherry-picking. But what is important is to be armed with great deal of faith and courage to face life's trial head on...

Lack of decent sleep...
Well...well...everyone is asleep and the house is so qiet. Slept around 3 in the morning doing what-nots and pillow fighting and a lot of teasing with C. Had tried fitting C's pants and voila...I got 2 hands-me-down. Yey! One is a stretch crampled "baston" which she doesn't believe na uso nung days namin, calling it now skinny jeans...and 1 is a Chili Pep which I bought at Greenhills...woohoo may additional na naman akong panglakad. I'm nagkukuripot pagdating sa akin dahil sayang ang pera. Wow exciting...libre pa. Then would you believe that I was up so early...before 6am? Yup, I recieved a text message with money concern...so I'm waiting for the arrival of the person involved. No signal inside the room so I am forced to stay awake in the terrace. Done with a cup of coffee and no intention of having another cup since I noticed that I am gaining na naman another unwanted poundage. And I hate it. I want to get fit! You know, sometimes when we feel stressed we tend to find a way out...by eating...so, we have to be very extra careful. Lalo na sa gaya kong getting over the hills na and scoliotic pa. I need to lose some more...and I mean more. Health is very important to us. Good thing I am not having the usual episodes of hypertension...lucky me. I won't to be around forever, much as I want to be. But I am taking care of myself so far and I plan to keep doing it...for my kids. I want to stay healthy. I remember going to the resort with my kids to unwind a little and a treat too, kind of weekends together. With a lot of stressing problems in my head, I bought a pack of mentholated cigarettes. For the nth time I went back into smoking that night. It felt good. I couldn't exactly tell why, but it gave me a good feeling. Puffing and blowing concentrated rings of smoke...my dau furrowed her brows and felt aghast when she saw me, knowing that I am not a smoker. I don't do things like this anymore. What's happening to me? What has come over me? I asked myself. I quit smoking right after my youngest tried puffing my lighted cigar when he was still 6 and accidentally he got a deep burn scar left on his arm. Still exists and very noticeable up to now. Always like, "I got this from my mom's cigarette when I was a small kid." Argh! I wonder what to tell that time. Don't ever ever try this 'coz this is bad for anyone's health... and he went like..."eh why are you puffing?!", and so I quit right away. Then out of the blue I wanted to go back smoking na naman. But then I imagine how I would try killing myself from smoking na naman so I warned myself not to...for the nth time again. Not so good a try...specially when I am having pains in my chest. I don't want to ruin myself anymore health-wise. Remember the famous Latin phrase, Memento Mori...
