LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

By Kristine R. San Juan

Life is beautiful that it is always at its best. There will always be things to learn and time to live to the fullest and experience the beauty of all God’s creation.  I learned that in life, you may not get what you want, you may not get what wished for but you will always get what you deserve. I learned that no matter how imperfect things seem to be for me and for other people, it is perfectly how God wanted it to be. I should never be afraid to choose a path because there will always be nothing that God and I cannot face together. There may always be a lot of difficulties in life but these difficulties help us open up our strength. Obstacles teaches us to be strong and to believe more in God, to believe that nothing can ever go completely wrong. I discovered that at the end of every hardship, there is always something waiting better than what we could ever wish for.

I should not be afraid of judgment for it can help me improve my flaws. No matter how perfect things are for me, there will always be people saying that it’s not enough and it’s not that good and because of this, I realized that I should not look for perfection because there will always be some pessimistic people who can only see the flaws and take the good things for granted. I learned to accept that there are things that I don’t know. I learned that I should not look down at myself because there will always be someone that I’m better than.

I figured that when you can make a lot of people happy, you can make a lot of people sad and cry as well. When many people love you, you can make a lot of people hate you.

I learned to find the good things in the bad things and smile that I was able to find a bright side at it. I learned to smile even if there is pain in my heart for nothing good will happen if I continue to feel bad. I realized that I love making people happy, and I love it when people try to make me happy because I can see that they love me. I learned to be strong and to always believe, my faith is what keeps me going because it gives me comfort and strength. I learned to never give up because the only failure is when you stop trying. I cry when I have to and I do not fear of what people will say when I cry because those people who will judge me can do nothing to relieve my pain. I learned not to believe that things won’t be alright because sometimes things go wrong to make you right. I learned that it’s better to cross the line and bear the consequences than to stare at it for the rest of your life and never win. I learned that what is outside is harder to change than what is inside. I found out that not all questions have answers. I learned that most things have to be so hard sometimes for us to know what is worth it. I learned that those who kneel down to the Lord can stand up to anything. I learned that no matter what, life goes on.
