Words of wisdom from Angelina Jolie

I've realized that being happy is a choice. You never want to rub anybody the wrong way or not be fun to be around, but you have to be happy. When I get logical and I don't trust my instincts - that's when I get in trouble. - Angelina Jolie

Some years ago, biruin mong naisip ko na may nabangga akong sindikato ng kidnappers? Oo nga. I don't think everyone took me seriously though. But I still warned people and...you know, resigned from my job (kala mo kung sinong matapang no?). I knew I might have appeared like a mental person, but to this day, my gut still tells me I was right (at iniisip pa din nila na na-aning ako for a while at kinailangang ipasok sa loob).

When making a decision minsan mas madaling maging logical, but really, it doesn't guarantee anything except that you're safe from doing something crazy. You will ask people's opinion and they will give you a well thought of advice, only to find, kung sila yung nakapulot ng 1 million, they will keep the money anyway and run off to Morocco. And you wound up feeling, "That's what I was thinking of doing but you said otherwise! And now that you got the money...oh, man!"

Minsan, every piece is laid out and something is telling you it's okay to jump. Walang guarantee na walang bruises pero it sure is going to be a sweet and fun fall. But for the sake of being logical, you won't do it. Only to regret it later. You should have jumped anyway, probably looking stupid in the end but atleast you proved a point.

There are times you don't really want to do it. Or maybe you do. Okay, so you're not sure. A few people will talk you into doing it saying it's perfectly okay. And logically speaking...yeah...it makes sense. So you do it anyway, only to realize after, that the reason you were unsure is because you really were not made for this kind of stuff.

Well, kahit gaano pinag-isipan minsan mali pa din. And it's pointless to avoid hurt. I always remind myself that people hurt people because we are imperfect.

The redeeming part? Buti na lang I can always live on a clean slate after the mistakes at nakalimutan ko... I can seek advice from God who guides me for my best interest.
