Steps to Happiness
Everybody Knows:
You can’t be all things to all people.
You can’t do all things at once.
You can’t do all things equally well.
You can’t do all things better than everyone else.
Your humanity is showing just like everyone else’s.
So:
You have to find out who you are, and be that.
You have to decide what comes first, and do that.
You have to discover your strengths, and use them.
You have to learn not to compete with others,
Because no one else is in the contest of *being you*.
Then:
You will have learned to accept your own uniqueness.
You will have learned to set priorities and make decisions.
You will have learned to live with your limitations.
You will have learned to give yourself the respect that is due.
And you’ll be a most vital mortal.
Dare To Believe:
That you are a wonderful, unique person.
That you are a once-in-all-history event.
That it’s more than a right, it’s your duty, to be who you are.
That life is not a problem to solve, but a gift to cherish.
And we’ll be able to stay one up on what used to get us.
- Father Pat

Tama naman di ba? Para sa akin walang perpektong tao, kaya kailangan nating taggapin kung ano ang mga strengths and weaknesses natin. Magkakaiba tayo, ang bawat isa ay may kanya-kanyang kakayahan, meron akong mga bagay na kayang gawin na hindi kaya ng iba. Meron akong mga bagay na nakakamit na hindi nakakamit ng iba and vice versa. Gusto kong magpasaya ng iba, pero sinong magbibigay ng kasiyahan sa atin? Pamilya, kaibigan at mga mahal sa buhay ang higit na nakapagpapasaya sa atin at hindi materyal na bagay lang . Gusto kong mainspire din kayo sa poem na ito tulad ko. Matuto tayong pahalagahan at mahalin ang ating mga sarili, dahil ito ang unang hakbang para makamit natin ang true happiness.
