People in today's world

Have you ever wished that you were not where you are? To not have to face stress which mounts day by day. Today, the world is moving very rapidly. People, in order to catch up with the world, often work at maniac speeds.

In a world like this, have you ever considered living as a poor, simple but happy person on a farm? Where you are free of worldly affairs. Being able to spend the rest of your life with that special someone, and bringing your kids up on your own. Not needing Siti at your beck and call, and inculcate all the wrong values in your precious children. What if you could live a life like this?

Of course, that is our ideal world. Most ideals are very unrealistic. Even if we were to live on a farm as mentioned above, would we really lead a blissful life? Highly unlikely. As teenagers, instead of worrying about grades, or appearance, we would most probably be busy helping to support the family, doing labour intensive jobs such as farming (no thank you!). Is this what we mean by our so called blissful life?

In the past, children were made to support the family. But today, our roles have been reversed. Instead of being of help to our parents, we are a liability to our parents (financially speaking of course). Our parents invest their hard earned money in us, but do we really repay them, and give them a ROI (return on investment)? It is bad enough that some of us are not thankful for our good fortune. Some can even complain that their life really sucks, and we hear cases of teenagers committing suicide at the smallest problem!

Point is, no matter what, we are living in the best time to be alive! Kings in the past did not even have as much privilege as we do today, think about it (ok maybe besides having the power to execute someone at will, or have billions of concubines). Technology's improved our lives so well that we are now so pampered. No?

Paolo Despabiladeras Ramos


About Me:
First of all I would like to thank you for checkin me out, being my "blogspot" buddy and leaving COMMENTS. *hahaha* I really do appreciate that. Okay, now my name is Paolo, Im 16 years old, Medical Technology student. I am VERY friend and family oriented, blah blah blah..

I am a simple boi, but most people who know me might say I am materialistic, because I buy really expensive (useless) objects. I guess you can say I do it just to get me thru my lonely days. I love to laugh (its like the best thing anyone can do in my opinion), hang with people I feel comfortable with and do the usual things that most like to do.

I don't smoke, do drugs and I don't want getting drunk on occasion. I don't like when people throw their lives away by doing dumb things that physically and mentally hurt them... those are the people who tear their families apart, hate life everyday and dont care about the opinions of the people who really care for them (not realizing they NEVER only affect themselves). I must say, I believe in choice, so if u r one of those peeps, I wont judge you or treat you differently.

Life is WAY too short to live with hate or grudges, just laugh them all away, think about it, is it really gonna matter in 100 years? Life is a carnival; there is never going to be a permanent high. With good morals, a light heart and faith in yourself you can do whatever you want. So start over again, talk to the peeps you said you would never even look at again, get close with family and friends and most importantly, be yourself and watch everyone flock to you.

Im not saying Im always peaches n crme, cuz Im not. I make mistakes everyday, have bad days, get depressed and am confused all the time, but I am human (and damn proud of it!). Im open to talk to anyone. I speak my mind (and if u get a compliment frm me, jst knw its true cuz dont like to lie)

Who I Want to Meet:
Friends and potential lovers of course.. hahaha! ;) My friends say that I'm picky. That, I'd definitely have to agree with. I want someone that I'm attracted to of course, but not attracted JUST to their appearance and at the expense of sounding really cliche, someone I'm attracted to who they are and what they have on the inside. It's not what you have on the outside that matters to me the most. I want someone to spoil with my emotional support. Someone that wants a happy relationship. I want other's to look at us and be like "they are so happy together, why can't we be like that?" that's hot. Also, someone who will give me attention, someone who wants to be together as much as our schedules allow. I want someone to wake up to in the morning that puts a smile on my face and gives me that extra boost to start my day.

As for me, I'm the type of guy who will hold you when you're crying and wipe away your tears. I'm the guy who is content to just be able to hold you and wants nothing more. I'm the guy who's perfectly happy with staying in and watching movies and cuddling. I'm the guy who will text you and tell you "I miss you and wish you were here" just because. I'm the guy who kisses you on the forehead. I'm the guy who will hold you while we watch the sunset and make sure you know you're the most precious thing in my life. I'm the type of guy that will bring happiness into my and your world no matter the circumstances. You'll never feel so loved in your life and that's for sure. I will go beyond means to make you happy just to see that beautiful smile of yours.

To me, there's nothing better in life than knowing your partner appreciates you as much as you appreciate them. Feeling loved and being in love is one of life's greatest blessings, you can label me as a hopeless romantic. I love doing things for people (especially people I'm interested in romantically). I can get pretty creative too. To me, the most important thing in life you can ever give someone is TIME, because it's something you cant control and have very little of. I just hope one day I can find that one person that I can give my time to.

I want someone that has goals in life, and isn't afraid to go for them, someone that actually deserves the love and effort I put forth in a relationship, someone that I can be in love with, and be loved by, I know that finding love in "my world" is difficulty if not nearly impossible, but I'd like to think that their is someone for everyone, and that one of these days someone will come up to me, and all we have to do is look into each others eyes, and just smile, because we won't have to say anything, we'll just know, because we'll feel it, I want to find that someone that I can connect with deeply, emotionally and physically, someone that is willing to be my soul mate and my best friend...

Proud to be Thomasian
