Love,Life, & Thoughts

I'm a woman of passion, great love and respect for humanity. I believe I am kind, I make good judgement about my self and the way I deal with life, I am independent, tough, well-bred and educated. I believe I am a leader of good influence, I believe in great conversation, I love speaking out my mind,
They said I work too often much but I love what I do, I give my all to what I believe is life, be it in my career or in love. I value people, people's ideas, interests, choices, and simple acts of respect matter a lot to me. I am a compulsive shopper for very few selected addictions, such as books and chocolates and coffee. Someday, I'm gonna have a library in my crammed apartment. I do always want to have a lot of chocolates in my fridge, I don't get much time to eat them though, I want to purchase all coffees of different historical legends someday. Well, that's all, so far, about me. I can go on and on, but this page might not accommodate all of my thoughts.
Here's an outline of some beautiful little bits of me:
* a passionate teacher
* a wisdom seeker
* i love to talk about love, life and laughter
* i believe in destiny
* i believe that everything happens for a reason
* i believe in forgiveness
* i am a devotee for peace
* i am a woman of worth
* i cry when i'm sad
* i laugh when i'm happy
* i'm real
* i'm one hell of a woman
* i believe in love
* i believe that blessings come with a price
* i believe that success needs passion and determination
* and i believe that success happens when opportunity meets preparation.

My realization of the day: Be who you wanna be. We all have these unattainable dreams and desires in us. Sometimes it even gives us headaches on how to achieve all of them in an instant, since we really love the feeling of it if we can only possibly have it. Well, today I have realized that achieving something does not require much. We only need to make use of what we have and make that a ladder to reaching what we want. I mean, I believe in connecting the dots. For sure, the situation we are in right now will somehow surely connect to our dreams. And everyday is a constant endeavor to getting where we wanna be. I have always been picturing myself talking infront of many people, inspiring people, sharing a little nugget of my thoughts, hearing the loud applause as I ended my speech and hearing people’s feedback about what I’ve said and all…This imagination really makes me smile often. It’s like a fuel, burning my desire to be the ONE. As I was teaching one of my students today, as we went on with our discussion about some particular topic. We came to talk about this thing related to “intelligent conversation”. The question was like, “When was the last time you think you really had the most interesting intelligent conversation with someone?” My student answered like, “Toni, for sure the question refers to the past, my past experience…right?” I replied, “Yeah”. She went on, “This experience I’m gonna talk about refers to NOW. My daily experience with you. I feel inspired talking with you everyday, and I have learned a lot. Before, I aimed to improve my speaking skills and to be able to speak English fluently, but when I talk to you, I realize that speaking fluently isn’t all. I want to speak logically too. I realized that it’s not enough to know how to speak, but to be able to know what to talk about is the most important thing I think.” There! I just felt dumbfounded. I mean I was really, really surprised and at the same time I honestly wanted to cry. I don’t know why, yet somehow it made me feel very proud of myself in an instant. Was I that great, that someone so modest and shy could ever honestly and directly say just the exact words to make me feel so much appreciated? Now, I realize. Without knowing it, but if only we set our mind to our goal always and put it in our heart, someday, like today, the reality would bring us there. I never knew I am actually realizing my dreams right now. I realized how much I wanted this, to make people happy, to inspire others. And I’m doing it this way. Through teaching. I don’t need a round of applause, I don’t need a bigger audience, I don’t need to sign autographs. This is enough for me to feel contented and happy. I will never stop here. Keep inspiring. Be an inspiration.
