Examine Yours Conscience

I came across this phrase while I was reading an old Reader's Digest from my father's collection. This sign was actually posted in some hotel room way back in the 1970s. It's quite blunt but I like it.

People should have this posted at the the ceiling directly above their beds to serve as a reminder. I believe that at the end of each day, we should assess ourselves on what we have done during the day. Determine the things we have done right and the mistakes we have made, then try to improve from there.

Many Sleepless Nights

So many night have passed that I've had sleepless nights. Some of it I've attributed to too much caffeine in my body. I'm always drinking softdrinks at home and coffee at the office. I know that i haven't been sleeping well because of too much thinking. Too much "what if" and "what could be" in my mind. Well, always you've been there in mind. Consistently appearing in my mind. How I wish these "what ifs" would come true. Just wishing and hoping because you're not mine.

Difficult Sleep

Yesterday, my mother came to town for a seminar at the Marco Polo Hotel and she requested me if I could accompany her at her suite. I went last night and stayed in that hotel for the first time. The room was nice and I was wished that my room was that organized. However, I had difficulty sleeping even with the soft big pillows, soft mattress and cool surroundings. I keep turning and turning to find the right position to sleep, and I failed. My body was looking for something that it deemed comfortable to sleep at. I don’t mean that my bed at home is better than what they offer because it is not. It’s just, most of the time, we look for something that we are used experiencing and, oftentimes, we are not that comfortable in the change of surrounding. We need to time to adjust to this new feeling. How like life?

Well, I’m looking forward to sleep in my own bed tonight. As for now, I'll stick to what's uncomfortable yet familiar. And change is brewing ahead.
