Do you follow what your heart craves?

As odd as it sounds, sometimes our logical minds can hold us back. Have you ever wanted to attempt a new career, run a marathon, or start your own business? Our brains might scream at us that it is safer to do what has been tried and true in the past, but don't let the fear of the unknown stop you! We all spend a lot of time worrying and little time examining the calling of our own hearts. What are you passionate about? Is there a way that you can honor these feelings in a responsible way? Trying new things can be terrifying, but following our passions can make us feel alive and become some of our most memorable moments in life. The thrill of love, the depths of grief, and the joys of a new career...all would be impossible without passion.

[this is good]

i like this.

but i can say that it really depends on how strong the passion is, it comes with definite courage and optimism. one may really want to do something and achieve it but side factors are of complete importance, hence, failure comes in the picture.

but one must really try even the consequences are visible. after all, everything is uncertain after each situation that arises..

amen. the biggest risk i've ever taken? embarking on a long-distance relationship with a childhood acquaintance after a three-week whirlwind romance. o diba, romantic? :P we just celebrated two years together, and we're still doing it long-distance, pero we're happy. kaya despite people's misgivings and puzzlement at our situation, he and i have absolutely no regrets. =]

aww! long distance....

"so near yet so..." no no no...... so far, and how truly faaar...

lols.

far talaga. roughly 7,000 miles far. hehehe kaya panay pa rin ang uwi ko sa pilipinas eh. :P

many times have i faced this problem: do what i want or do the right thing. more often than not, i end up doing the right thing even at that moment, it really pains me because it's not really in line with what my heart is telling me to do. at the end of the day, i realize that it takes a lot of strength and maturity to be able to face up to the responsibilities in life which points me back to trying to pursue the right things. in order not to face this problem anymore, one has to have a pure heart... one that only wants the good things out there. =)

good can be better, yet it couldnt be less. we can only want things that we think are right. if we let passions rule, it is still our choice, it will tell us who we are yet we won't have the right to whine at the end.
what we choose speaks of who we are.
pains? who doesnt have one? but i think doing what is right is definitely worth the pain.
this might be coming from a head-person, but believe me -- it also takes a heart to know the good.
