Get Inspired...

The video shows us that despite of all the challenges in life that we are facing, we should not lose hope. We should continue on doing what we ought to do and we live our life to the fullest.
I am so much inspired by the man on the video because even though he lacks limbs and other body parts, he still does not make this as an excuse for him to be inefficient. He is still doing what he likes to do and he uses this physical attributes of him to inspire others. He never lost hope to be the best that he can be.
Let us be inspired by him. Let us also use what we have in order to inspire others. We may not have everything, but this lack of something may help us build up the totality of others. Even in simple ways such as using our talents to help the in need, we can inspire others. Let us continue to be living inspiration for others for us to have a better world.

Discipline

Discipline as a noun is a type of training which leads to moral or mental improvement of a person. It also may create a specific character or pattern of behavior of a person. As a transitive verb (disciplined, disciplining, disciplines), it is to teach self-control and obedience to the rules. It may also mean acceptance of authority and imposition of orders (Merriam-Webster Dictionary, 2010).
Examples:
  •  A teacher needs to discipline her students in order for them to be good citizens.
  • You do not have the discipline!

SUCH A PLAN! (Adventure Story)

It has been my dream in life to travel to places which can offer food for my eyes and just right in time, I came to visit Tinago Falls in the City of Majestic Waterfalls, ILIGAN CITY.
Under the blazing heat of the sun, my friends and I waited for the colorful and modern jeepney outside the popular resto in the downtown area, Zoey’s. The route we need to take is to Buru-un. By the time the jeepney arrived, each one of us occupied the soft seats made of foam. Being the leader of the plan, one of my classmates collected our fare. The fare is quite expensive making us wish more that the scenery that we’re about to see is worth the expense.
Running like a cheetah, the jeepney zoomed through its route and unknowingly in minutes, we reached the intersection where we are going to ride again in order for us to reach the falls. We got down from the nice jeepney and asked the bystanding motorcycle drivers to give us a ride to Tinago. They agreed so we paid the fare and had ourselves delivered freshly. The motorcycle ride was bumpy, as if you are on an airplane crossing a big rain cloud.
When the driver prompted that “we are here!”, I was extremely shocked because I can’t see anything great! In my innocence, I was thinking wrong. We still needed to go down through the 300-step stairs for us to see the majestic falls they are talking about. Step by step, I felt my legs get numb. The long trail of steps made us very exhausted.
We reached the 300th step. Amazed, mesmerized by its beauty, I almost cannot close my eyes because the waterfall had captured my heart. The blue, crystal clear water flowing from the cliff full of trees rushing down its trail is the exact proof why Iligan City is called the City of Majestic Waterfalls. A rainbow over the sky is formed because of the moist of water from the mainstream waterfall is flying everywhere. The mixture of the heat of the sun and the coolness of the air gives us the kind of relaxation we never had in our entire life. I think, by that time, we had the best thing environment can offer.
That is why, I am glad that I’ve had this once in a lifetime experience. That was such a plan!
