You never know the biggest day of your life is the biggest day. Not until it’s happening. You don’t recognize the biggest day of your life, not until you’re right in the middle of it. The day you commit to something or someone. The day you get your heart broken. The day you meet your soul mate. The day you realize there’s not enough time, because you wanna live forever. Those are the biggest days. The perfect days. You know?.

Because this is life.
And I’m making it more awesome. : )
One Dare at a Time
That’s the catchphrase of the new tv show “DareDuo”.
They do stuff, one dare at a time.
People send them videos of dares they want to do themselves. And the hosts would do it with them.

There are films such as Bucketlist, Last Holiday, 100, etc talking about the same thing. There are a million books out there talking about things and places one has to do and go to before they hit the bucket. There’s also theBuriedlife.com where, well, you get the point.
The thing is, there are only a few, gifted people who can pull off the dare-do-what-you-want kind of thing. There are also a million excuses why we find ourselves writing our own lists. The bad thing is, that’s what we end up doing. We just have a list. Well, that should be the starting point and not the end point.

So if you’re like me who have a million excuses, why not try this : Do one dare a week. Hard? No. Try talking to a stranger and making him your friend before attempting bungee jumping. Try running before surfing. Try commuting around the metro before backpacking. Try eating your own country’s street foods before going on a cruise ship. So go ahead and dare yourself.
After the crash, I couldn’t use my legs for a while. Someone had to raise them for me. I cried in pain whenever the doctors would ask me to raise them or even to bent them. When I finally did, walking was such a chore. My back too was in deep shit, where it made my sleeping both a burden and a luxury. Despite the much needed rest, I just couldn’t do that because of the pain aching all over my body. Oh, plus my head would ache and spin just about every minute.
Eventually, I learned to “walk” again. Making a few rounds around the house. And after that I made it to the park. And to the mall. All of which entail plenty of rest in between. And of course, a lot of support from my family. And now I made it to the gym. Perhaps I have the easiest program there. But who cares right? Atleast I’m walking again.
Doesn’t matter how tough we are, trauma always leaves a scar. It follows us home, it changes our lives, trauma messes everybody up, but maybe that’s the point. All the pain and the fear and the crap. Maybe going through all of that is what keeps us moving forward. It’s what pushes us. Maybe we have to get a little messed up, before we can step up

I just hope and pray I can step up too.

You know when you get that feeling of being stagnant, where you’re just staying in traffic for so long while everyone else passes you by?
And then you tell yourself that you’ve gotta get up or else you’ll be left behind?
Well, the thing is, that’s full of crap. Because the only way you can start on moving is by asking yourself if you really REALLY want to cut the shit and hit that gas pedal for your own good. Because by the end of the day, nobody cares about the other cars. You yourself won’t even give a damn. So ask yourself. Do you really want to start the engine? For yourself? Go ahead and whip up those revolutionary ideas. :)
Now excuse me because I gotta get started.
For myself.
primera.
set
go.
I’m the type of person who holds on to the past far longer than I would have thought of.
I carry with me memories which, instead of making me look at a brighter future, hinders me from looking beyond the next minute.
But that was me before the accident.
This is me now.
I would like to believe that the cab changed the way I looked at life.
And that ride unarguably changed me into the person that I am now.
I am back where I was a year ago.
But the only difference this time was the accident.
And what that accident has brought into my life.
A new me.
As I was looking for a jewelry store that customizes bracelets and arm bands, I passed by this shop where they were selling cute little trinkets and accessories. Since I was getting tired of walking around, I just decided to buy a cute little bracelet that was somehow similar to what I had in mind. It took a while before I got the receipt and upon reaching home, I just realized why. This has got to be the best receipt I’ve ever received so far. :)
About me
shit happens all the time.so what?
Who cares?
You can always look for reasons why life is definitely awesome. :)
