Have you ever heard of unconditional love?

Lately, I have been addicted to a show on YouTube. It’s a romantic comedy show from German. But what attracts me the most is the love that they show to me. It amazes me that how can a person love someone like that? Unconditionally, patiently, and supportively. The show sometime gets traumatic. It’s like a soap opera, but not exactly. It’s just a European type of show. But it shows me of how a relationship works – the crush, the jealousy, the falling in love, the fight, the make up, etc.

After all of this, I realize that no matter what types of people that I have been with in the past, the experiences teach me to grow more mature to not make the same mistakes, and more importantly, I have never stayed away from love and being loved. Loving heart is a good thing to have. Keep up the good work.

Yesterday was my birthday. I am now 23 years old. I had a great time. My American friend family took me out to the China Buffet for lunch, and my friend Rich took me out to Siam – a local Thai restaurant for dinner and Hancock movie afterwards. In the meantime, I received a few text messages and calls from friends wishing me a happy birthday. Hancock movie was really cool. I like it and recommend it to you. All in all, I think I had a fulfilling birthday day.

Life isn’t about fun all the time. Most people, when they grow older, they wish that they have done something different in the past when they were young. Some people have regrets in their life and just wish that the time could ever go back so that they could have a do over. Unfortunately, time can only go forward and not backward. For the past 22 years, I do have my own regrets, but I don’t live in them. I move on and try to live my life better. We always say that if we have known that is what is going to happen by then, we would have done things in a different way. But again, you never know what would happen if you have done things in that different way and where would it take you now.

Everyone has a history. Everyone has a shady past. However, to live life to the fullest is to forgive that shady past and embrace them as part of our self-growth. We can always look back at it as a lesson, but don’t wallow ourselves in the agony that regrets bring. I believe that as I age older, I become wiser and see things in a different way that I have never seen before. My vision becomes clearer about life and where I stand. And to that, I say “Happy Birthday” to myself because I am happy to grow older and not regret about whatever happened 22 years ago.

LYRICS:

(Verse 1)
Always been the kind of girl that hid my face
So afraid to tell the world what I've got to say
But I have this dream bright inside of me
I'm gonna let it show
It's time
To let you know, to let you know

(Chorus)
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be now
Gonna let the light shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me

(Verse 2)
Do you know what it's like to feel so in the dark?
To dream about a life where you're the shining star
Even though it seems
Like it's too far away
I have to believe in myself
It's the only way

(Chorus)
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be now
Gonna let the light shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I wanna be
This is me

(Verse 3)
Joe:
You're the voice I hear inside my head
The reason that I'm singing
I need to find you, I gotta find you
You're the missing piece I need
The song inside of me
I need to find you

Demi & Joe:
I gotta find you
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be now
Gonna let the light shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I wanna be

(This is me) You're the missing piece I need the song inside of me
(This is me) You're the voice I hear inside my head
(Yeah) The reason that I'm singing

Joe & Demi:
Now I've found
Who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I wanna be
This is me

Do you know why I am 22 years old but still like to watch Disney’s movies and shows? Besides from making me laugh during the movies and shows, Disney always reminds kids and teenagers to express themselves, to follow their dreams, to be themselves, to have fun, to be happy, and to go after their passions. How many times I have thought about my teenage year that I distressed myself, suffered from low self-esteem, and not to mention, some other teenagers out there that are trying to fit in with their peers. Although I often time did not buy peer pressure, no one ever told me to follow my heart, and to be just myself.

Of course, some Disney’s movies can be too good to be true. The magic and the fantasy are all illusions. But that’s not the point. The point is miracle can happen anytime that we cannot expect or foresee, and dreams that we never give up but pursue them. The gist of it is to follow your dreams, live your life, and make the best of what you have. We all only get one chance in life. So, live your life to the fullest! Remind yourself that you rock. Who cares what other people think. Who cares what other people think I am old enough to get married yet still a fan of Disney. One of my favorite quotes is “Say what you think and act how you feel because those who matter don’t care and those who care don’t matter.”
