In this complicated world, no person is exempted from problems. If we don’t have the proper frame of mind our bodies and mental faculties will easily succumb to the pressures of life. To a person with positive outlook in life problems becomes challenges and failures becomes his teachers and a stepping stone to success. We often hear stories about people who has been suffering from poverty before and after all of the hardwork they have able to achieve such achievements that they’ve been dreaming before. We have list of these successful people that’s been an honor to their countries. To name some of them, we have Manny Pacquiao, pride of the Philippines, Some were from a family of rich people and still are successful and that because of having a golden heart willing to help out the poor. These were Oprah, Ellen “The Generous”..and many other celebrities and great people that have brought changes to other people’s lives. And last but not the list, the mother of all mothers who greatly devoted her life to help the poorest of the poor, Mother Theresa of Calcutta, India.

Faith factor” plays an important role in a person’s wellness. I therefore consider that the first step to health and recovery is to put your trust to God who is in control and recovery is to put God first in any endeavor in life is a guaranteed secured.

I know that there people who only knows who God is, when they are facing troubles or any hardships . But why do we sometimes forgets about Him? As we are about to face the day, He is there for us.  And he is the who backed us up in every rough road that we passed.

How Do We Define Greatness

July 1st, 2009

The terms great and greatness are constantly mentioned, but do we truly know what it means to be the greatest ever? How is this “greatness” defined? When talking about a player’s greatness, fans and media tend to focus on an athlete’s personal records. We tend to focus on the amount of  awards that they have and we also point out records that they hold for knock outs, points, home runs, assists, batting average, touchdowns, and earned run average. Personal accomplishments are nice and are definitely things that deserve to be recognized and talked about.Great players are not only great on the court when everyone is watching, but they are also great in the locker room. True greatness means not standing above everyone, but rather standing beside everyone; therefore great players need not only to perform on the field, but also be able to mentor the younger players and help their teammates play to full potential. As an example of how one great in terms of sports. As I’ve seen Manny Pacquiao ,I’m not really an avid fan of him, but I see him like our national hero, Rizal. Although Rizal’s contributions to the Philippines were known through his social reforms, linguistic approaches and about things that he thinks the Philippines should have and was not afraid to tell the truth and love for his country. And Manny, like Rizal, keeps on maintaining his throne, to contribute goodwill to the Philippines and that’s by the Honor that he had received as an outstanding boxer.
