Some people give much but get back even more. Others don't give what they should and end up poor. Whoever gives to others will get richer; those who help others will themselves be helped.
from Proverbs 11: 24-25.
I opened the Bible a second time for this Christmas vacation. I have a plan kasi to be a be a better person by waking up early and reading the Bible everyday. Do you think i'm getting better? :D
Anyway, I believe, this is true and really is helpful. I was to blog about being/wanting to be a loner before, but I think now is the appropriate time to mention it.
I am a loner, or probably can be alone most of the times. There are people who want to be with friends or people at all times, I on the other hand can survive or can handle being alone. But of course I love being with friends and family too of course! I make friends with the people I'm with everyday (like classmates, university technicians, janitors, security guards). Oh my goodness, that actually tells me that I am friendly! Anyway, the thing is for other people of my batch, I have this attitude that they should come to me first before I trust or consider them as a friend. I guess, this certain attitude came from a broken heart during first year high school. At high school, I was too friendly, like I thought everyone was my friend already. But unfortunately, I learned it the hard way. Some people will not consider you as a friend immediately even if you tell them your problems or stories. (Grrrr...) So there, I have learned to doubt and caution. So probably that is a justification of my attitude of "you first". But that goes for most of my unknown batchmates anyway. But I am friendly, that's what I have realized by writing this entry. Even though I want to believe that I'm alone, I have realized that I do have friends, and I reach out to people more often.
So in life, no matter how much shit people throw at you, well they are shit but are still people. And you can always, at times, receive their shit and love them still. <3
