Pearls Journey

  “For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.” — Audrey Hepburn   We will never know who we will cross paths with. Sometimes the ending can end badly but it can also end happily. Like the experience I've had. I'm not the type to easily share my burdens with others because I know everyone has their own problems. Sometimes we don't even know what their state is like. Based on my experience, sometimes if we want to share our problems to lighten our burdens then the person that we are talking to is not in a good situation, what will happen is a misunderstanding … Maybe they will still listen to us because they think they have to because we always listen to them whenever they need us and it makes them want to do it just because they feel bad while actually they are not at their best condition for talked to. In the end I decided to join in on a p...

  We don’t meet people by accident. They are meant to cross our path for a reason. Never judge someone by their physical beauty. I often hear this from several people who at first they were strangers and then turned into my best friends. During my time as a volunteer, I got to know a lot of people. I got a lot of experience. Like this story, at that time I knew him because he sent me a DM. I asked him what brought him there. He was engaged and his parents did the arranged marriage for him. He said that in a few months he would be getting married. I asked him, if he was engaged, then why he felt lonely. Doesn't he now have a fiancé that they should both learn to know each other before their wedding? He told me actually he wasn't comfortable with any of that. He also felt that he did not like the girl his parents chose. It's just that because his parents were forcing him and he didn't want to hurt his parents, he was forced to do the arranged marriage. We talked...

  Met you as a stranger took you as a friend Hope we meet in Heaven where friendship never ends Some time ago, while I was scrolling through my timeline, a post caught my attention. The post caught my attention because someone wanted to share his sadness about his niece being hospitalized with bronchitis pneumonia. At that time I commented on the post. I encouraged him not to be sad and prayed that his niece would get well soon.   But it's just that somehow that post keep circling on my mind. As is my habit, I checked the person's bio, saw other posts he had made. I want to get to know him through his posts. After a while, I decided to Dm that person. I think actually the strongest reason why I wanted to get his DMs was because I know how sad it is to know someone we care about is in the hospital with bronchitis pneumonia. My daughter when she was a baby also experienced the same thing. Maybe that's the reason why I ended up DMing him. At first I thought may...

  Everyone has different traits, characters and habits. Since I was a child, I used to hang out and get acquainted with many people. Maybe this is because the genes passed on by my parents because they are also the type that is easy to get along with makes me also have the same characteristics as them. Maybe also it's because since childhood I'm used to living moving from one place to another, making me have to learn quickly to get to know new places, make new friends and learn quickly to adapt myself to existing circumstances. Because all of that in the end made it easy for me to read other people's characteristics or traits. Maybe just by having a short conversation or reading their gestures, I can easily read whether they are happy, comfortable or uncomfortable talking to me or being near me. It's not an easy thing to do all that. When I first meet someone, I usually pay attention to how their mood is when they talk to me. Usually from the way they talk to me it ...
