The colors of life

Life is a journey and you hold the key. Do you agree that life is a journey? And it started from we were born till we leave the world or in other words be buried in a graveyard. We are the holder of the key of our life. We have our own self. So, we have rights to specify our own future besides life itself is a gift from God, thus do good to it.  

I do believe there will be always colors in life, we can say these happiness and sadness, ease and hardship times, presence and loss moments, leave or left ones who we love and so forth. It is impossible to shun for sort of these things in life. We can laugh happily if we get what we want but instead of crying and despair if we fail to hold them. We feel the world colorful when we are in love with someone and in the contrary it can be dark without any lights when we are left by her/him. So, there are only the simple pieces of colors in our lives and happen for ones, no exception.  

Are you convinced enough that we are the one who can decide what the color is? We have the power to alter the dark color (read sadness) into the colored ones (read happiness). Supposed, we despair about losing the job that we dream for, we can change it as a kindness for us. And then the next question is how can it be? We need to do is to look down for the people who are much miserable than us (disable people) and without realizing we will thankful for what we got or why we do not try to be an entrepreneur? It is not bad idea right? Another case, we can transform a dejected feeling to become a benefit, and the same question how come? We need to set up our mind that it can be an opportunity to meet the better person who much more compatible with our personalities, just try to open your heart.

PS. The picture taken during the site visit to Surabaya, it is situated in Kenjeran (one of the tourism destination there). Though dark cloud was coming but the colors of roof still looked magnificent. The question is what will you see first the dark cloud or the colors roof?

Wanna emphasize the initial sentence in the first paragraph that we are the holder key of our lives. We are only the person who can determine that we can happy or sad, fight or stop to chase our dreams or achieve our goals and so forth.  The prominent is always to see anythings positively and put gratitude for all occurrences. There are always the reasons behind why these happen and wisdom values for us in order to be a better person. I can say that “I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination and I have learned more from pain that I could have ever learned from pleasure”.  

For my dear friends, have a wonderful Friday to all of you

  • Hi Onee,

    You commented again in my blog, I thank you so much my dear friend. It is nice of you who always encourage people to come and write a blog here ^_^. We are in the right hand hehehe….

    Yes there is always reason in occurrences. After the darkness in the night there is always sunrise that will come to light our day. There is rainbow after heavy rain. So, Never give up. Thanks for the nice words Onee. Sorry, to be late in replying.

  • Hi Sulung, 

    Great if you saw the colorful roofs, it does mean you have a positive mind.

    I agree that we are as human being cannot avoid the sadness or misery in our life, because in life there are always two things as couples, examples: darkness and brightness, day and night, male and female and so on. Thus, we always have choices, right? How do we react or respond to all occurrences in our life. Always learn to seek the positive thoughts for all moments in life.

    You know the nice thoughts that you shared already with us was we can appreciate the happiness moments when we have experiences with the sad ones.  Great thought!! And the last words of yours, WOOOW…:D.

    Thanks to come and comment on my modest blog.

  • Hi Roman,

    Wow you shared the quote from your country that has the same meaning as I shared one. It is true that we are the person who can control our mind, no exception. Though so many voices outside, still we are the person who can filter the good words that could enter our mind and it will influence our actions.

    I thank you for reading and leaving comment on my blog.  Sorry for the late reply from me.

  • Hi Rose,

    Thanks to leave and share the image of nice quote on my blog. I couldn’t agree more with you. We are the person who is responsible to ourselves. Bad or good deeds it will be back to yourselves, in another words it is called karma. Trying to be a better person is the gist.  Sorry for the late reply.

  • Dear Icha,,

    Welcome back! ^_^ Thank you so much for your encouraging blog. So true, it's we who can alter the black color of life becomes more colorful. There are so many things to do to reach that. Never give up! The brighter day is waiting for our coming. ^_^

    Have a wonderful year! ^_^

  • I saw the colorful roofs first. I even didn't notice the dark cloud until I read your caption.

    We cannot always be happy; being always happy is almost impossible. Happiness and sorrow may come alternately to our life. We need to taste the sadness to be grateful for the happiness. :) But don't let the sadness kills us. :D 

  • Hi Icha!

    You are right, it is a life of each of us. We are the captains of our ships! Here in Ukraine we often say something like "I am a blacksmith of my own happiness", wich means that happiness is in our hands, we just need to keep or multiply it.

    Thank you for sharing this blog! Ofcourse, first I saw the multi-colored roofs!

    And thank you for the nice wishes!:)

    Have a picturesque weekend!

  • Hi Sir Dara,

    I could not agree more with your words. Happiness is full in our hand, we can choose to be happy or not with any situations that we encounter, just need to put positive thinking. I know it is not easy but at least we give it a try. 

    With giving cheerfulness to others can bring the same pleasure to ourselves. Be a person who can bring a goodness to others, it is the true meaning of life. 

    Thanks Sir Dara to comment on my blog. I value it. Have a good Friday. 

  • Terima kasih banyak Icha! I agree with you , my friend, we can chose to  be happy or sad by ourselves. By being good to others. Helping them, showing them the right way. Beautiful colors can look different  to the person with sick eyes. I like Surabaya.
