THE SUNSET VIEW

As I watched the sunset It reminded me that I have received another blessing in my life this day,and this is to have another whole day of life spending with my family.Life is so short so we must enjoy it they've told me. But how are we going to enjoy life?Is it by going anywhere, playing, drinking alcohol, having a party, and gambling? Well I don't think so!  I spent my life like this when I was in Highschool. I drink, I gamble(play tonghits, majong, pusoy , lucky nine) I even dreamed of gambling in a casino, I never study well, not reading my lessons, not doing my assignment, and always skipping my classes.. But I realized That these things that I did was worthless.. I did not enjoy life, I just wasted it. Then I've changed and I think I've changed for the better.This time, I am not drinking alcohol cause I already believed that drinking can destroy my body, I have to take care my body because this was Gods gift for me.I am not gambling anymore because this is just a waste of time, and I already realized that even if I won today, tomorrow I'll gonna loose, I need to use my time wisely.There are lot of things to do. Like discovering talents, reading so that I can learn something, Showing love to others, talking with my family, Worshiping my Beloved Heavenly Father, and making friends with others.I believe that everyday I did something Good, Everyday I make myself better, Everyday I am Glad and happy that I do my job well, Everyday I feel that I am doing something worthwhile.So I believe that even if tomorrow I don't have the chance to see this wonderful sunset again, I guess I am ready facing my Heavenly Father. I am ready cause I know that I did something Good in my Earthly Life.. :)

I just want to quote this wonderful verse:(For behold, this life is the time for men to prepare to meet God; yea, behold the day of this life is the day for men to perform their labors.)

NOte: Sorry for my wrong grammars, please feel free to correct them, I would be happy to know my mistakes and to correct them.Thank you! :)

  • Hi PORCUPINE,,

    I'm glad to see your change into better. You're so lucky. Keep on this way. Having friendship and nice talking with good people are precious indeed. Don't give up! Your life is beautiful.

    Based on my skill, this is my correction:

    __I used to drink and gamble

    __if I won win today, tomorrow I'll gonna loose, [conditional sentence type 1]

  • Gambling isn't worth to waste time same as drinking. It's so nice that you realized that all those things won't give you anything good. We should have to value our time with our loved ones as we can't turn back the time and we never know until when we will be in this life. It's nice you came with such an eye-opener blog. By the way, I know how to play all the card games you mentioned but I don't gamble. I just noticed that we're on the same country :D

    Nice sunset picture you have. Is it somewhere north? I always dream on being with the one I love while watching this sunset on a beach. hehehe!

  • Dear Porcupine, you have written so beautifully. You are right life is an opportunity given to us by God. I hope we can leave a happy life; for sure in order to lead a good and happy life we must make others happy.
  • You're so lucky to have the second chance and realise it. Some people were given the second chance but wasted it too. You've become more wiser apparently.

  • Second chances are there for the taking and it looks like you have made that choice already!  May you have more good choices in life! :)

  • THANKS FOR ALL YOUR COMMENTS! I REALY APPRECIATE IT! I always wanted to write some blog but its hard for me to express myself in english! I really appreciate your suggestions and I'll gonna do them so that i will improve.!Yeah! I believed that what happened to me is a transformation, and I am so happy for everything that I've realized! All the best for you all!thanks for motivating me.. EC is such a great help for me to improve..
  • This is called real TRANSFORMATION.  Be firm and build confidence in yourself.  There will not be evening of this dawn.

  • Once I read the quote "Your life does not get better by chance. It gets better by change." If the change is positive, your life is a bliss, if not, you are wasting it! 

    There are very few people who found guilty for their bad deeds and try to overcome their bad deeds by adopting the good deeds! I'm glad I read your optimistic blog!

    Good luck with your positive attitude towards life!! :)

  • Nice work! I really enjoyed reading this.

    I'm glad you've realized what's worth doing and you've learned so much from your mistakes. 

    By the way, try to paragraph the long paragraph and make it more reader-friendly. A blog with many short paragraphs is more readable than a blog with a long paragraph. 

    Keep writing!

  • Hello Porcupine, sometimes in young age we don't understand what is better for us, because of immaturity. But life gives us lessons and we realize the meaning of it. So that happened to you and you appreciate every moment that you live. I wish you the best in your life :)
