I am Anastasia. Born to be a proud mix-blood of Indonesian-Filipino. A mind-reader, Goal-setter,  An Awesome friend, and The boss of this blog. Very pleased to meet you in words!
It’s my public diary. My thoughts, feelings, things about me are all on there.

To who ever may read this, I write open and honestly, I write my truth.  If you read this and you know me and I write about you, just know that I would never ever in a million years ever try to hurt anyone. These are just my feelings and feelings change ever day, sometimes as often as every minute. I don’t like drama, don’t like confrontations, I am a peace maker. Welcome to my side of the story.</description><title>Predisposed Versus Predetermined</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @maylindaandherdays)</generator><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>"What do you do when your Family turns there back on you?

Sometimes it takes me a few seconds to get up, sometimes a few minutes, and sometimes a few days. And every now and then &amp;#8230; a few years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some days I see clearly, other days I can&amp;#8217;t keep my eyes open.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I hope that for every person who shuts the door, another will open up his/hers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I do not share with you, will you think: she doesn&amp;#8217;t trust and love me; I must not be the one; it&amp;#8217;s time to move on. Or will you think: what did I do or say to make her feel that she cannot confide in me? how did I make her lose trust in me?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We all have our limits? Where&amp;#8217;s yours?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What if I said to you there are no limits in love?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/52939867847</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/52939867847</guid><pubDate>Fri, 14 Jun 2013 18:10:37 +0700</pubDate></item><item><title>EMO[x] you own at least 5 black shirts[] you like skinny jeans[x] you&amp;#8217;re listening to music...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;EMO&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br/&gt;[x] you own at least 5 black shirts&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br/&gt;[] you like skinny jeans&lt;br/&gt;[x] you&amp;#8217;re listening to music right now&lt;br/&gt;[]you have painted your fingernails black before&lt;br/&gt;[x] You have more than 300 songs on your ipod/mp3&lt;br/&gt;[] Have attempted suicide&lt;br/&gt;[x] Like the color black&lt;br/&gt;[x] hate girly girls &lt;br/&gt;[] have kissed the same sex before&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#8217;t care to explain much anymore. I shouldn&amp;#8217;t have to, right? It&amp;#8217;s understood or not. It feels right or not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We should treat our better halves better than our friends. That&amp;#8217;s understood. But what does better mean? When we reach a point of comfort, do we let go? Do we get sloppy with our words, thoughts and appearances? If a friend hurts us and we forgive, do we do the same for our better half or do we hold our better half to a higher standard? If we hold our better half to a higher standard, can we live up to his/her higher standard? If we expect our better half to accept us unconditionally, can we do the same? Do we let go of some things with friends, things which we wouldn&amp;#8217;t let go with our better halves, because we want only the best? But isn&amp;#8217;t it exhausting to always want the best? Can we give the best?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There&amp;#8217;s no such thing as the best.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We should not give our better halves anything less than what we would give ourselves. But do we? What about the times when we don&amp;#8217;t treat ourselves very well? When we neglect ourselves?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#8217;s not so simple. Not at all.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/52938059945</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/52938059945</guid><pubDate>Fri, 14 Jun 2013 17:08:50 +0700</pubDate></item><item><title>Growing Up</title><description>&lt;p&gt;When you tell a kid that you&amp;#8217;ll take him or her to the zoo next weekend, you have to do it. Why? Because you said so. Simple. Kids remember things. We all should.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So what happened? Too many people don&amp;#8217;t keep their words, don&amp;#8217;t remember the things they say, and don&amp;#8217;t appareciate the value of their words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Don&amp;#8217;t say things in passing just because. Don&amp;#8217;t tell me you forgot. Don&amp;#8217;t deny that you said it.

Will you leave behind a great legacy, a legacy full of success, full of stories that will make you laugh, stories that will make you cry, and stories that will make you believe that anything, absolutely, anything is possible if you are willing to put forth the effort, and never give up on life? Or will your legacy consist of a mundane lifestyle in which its author made little to no attempt to juicy up his or her narrative.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We all have a choice. Every day is a day in which we can consistently decide if we want to work our hardest to make some changes to this world. What mark will you leave on the world by the time you are gone?

That&amp;#8217;s the question, isn&amp;#8217;t it?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think about it often, and everytime I think about it, I have a different answer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#8217;s sacrifice, trust, respect, commitment, a united front &amp;#8230; and the list goes on and on. It&amp;#8217;s everything. It comes in many forms. We all need it and deserve it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today, I see love as forever. Read about a man whose singer-turned-actress fiance got burned on a film set. During an interview, he broke down and said that apart from her feet and toes, &amp;#8220;all other parts of her legs are completely destroyed&amp;#8221;. She suffered third degree burns on 54% of her body, mostly her back and legs. I don&amp;#8217;t know this man, but to see him stand by her and stand up for her moves me deeply. She recovered and they got married.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Makes me think. A man meets a woman and falls in love with her. He loves her eyes, lips, and the way her body feels. He loves the way she talks, moves, and sleeps. But one day, she can no longer see or walk. What does he do?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/51136810857</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/51136810857</guid><pubDate>Thu, 23 May 2013 15:20:32 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title>Don't Take People For Granted</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Everyone has their breaking point. It is very easy to take a person for granted for so long when they continue to love you despite your ways, but don&amp;#8217;t get it confused, though some people&amp;#8217;s skin is thicker than others, everyone has a point in their life where they will get tired of being mistreated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Instead of taking people for granted that love you, show them how much you appreciate them each day. This can be done by simply honoring them and doing small things to make them happy. This may also be done by just expressing your love to them in different and creative ways. Show how highly you value their love, and their presence in your life by going out of your way to do so. We are all given chances, but you never know when the last chance may be. Show your love, dont take them for granted!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50977531726</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50977531726</guid><pubDate>Tue, 21 May 2013 15:20:32 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title> Good Things Are Coming Down The Road</title><description>&lt;p&gt;If you ever want to receive the good things in life that you truly deserve you have to continue on your journey towards them. In the road of life, and in the pursuit of the life we have always wanted, the goals, the dreams, and achieving everything we have envisioned for ourselves to achieve, we will often be confronted with turmoil, and we will often be forced to choose to decide whether we want to continue to push hard in life or not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is only failure in our life, if we choose to step out of fighting the war, failure doesn&amp;#8217;t come by just losing a single battle, failure comes when we refuse to keep walking down the road that we are supposed to be walking down.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just because right now may be a bad time in your life, doesn&amp;#8217;t mean that things will never get better. Keep pushing forward, keep hoping, and keep moving forward to achieve your dreams.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50894677436</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50894677436</guid><pubDate>Mon, 20 May 2013 15:20:39 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title> Learn To Let Go And Trust In God</title><description>&lt;p&gt;A lot of times we allow life and its stressors to take us to points in which we just shut down, lose hope, and lose faith, instead of allowing ourselves to continue in the pace, and in the direction that God wants to take us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The reality in each situation that we face is that God&amp;#8217;s wisdom is always there for us to feed on, even in times we feel alone, lost, and misguided. When you just allow yourself to let go of the wheel, and trust that God is going to take control of the spiritual vehicle you are driving, then supernatural things will start to happen in your life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Many don&amp;#8217;t realize the power of making the decision of whether to truly believe, and to not worry, not fret, and live a life full of God&amp;#8217;s guidance instead of their own. Be committed to the belief that God will take care of situations that you simply can&amp;#8217;t, be consistent with this belief, and God will consistently work inside of you.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50867208949</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50867208949</guid><pubDate>Mon, 20 May 2013 07:40:42 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title>Une femme a juste besoin d&amp;#8217;être aimé.

Une femme a besoin beaucoup de choses: l&amp;#8217;amour, l&amp;#8217;attention, de soins, le respect et les compliments, des fleurs pour aucune raison, les mots aimables et bien plus encore. Trop? Peut-être. Mais celui qui va lui donner tout cela - obtiendrez bien plus encore!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50803738375</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50803738375</guid><pubDate>Sun, 19 May 2013 16:42:44 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title>Never Judge Yourself Through Someone Else's Eyes</title><description>&lt;p&gt;When we worry about everyone else&amp;#8217;s opinion of our lives but our own, we are in big trouble. Life is not long enough to be lived in the hopes of pursuing the acceptance of others, because not only will we never gain the acceptance of every single person we desire to make proud of us, but we will never really have a good chance of showing the world how great we are, as we truly are, perfectly imperfect.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you have dedicated your life to please everyone else, it is never too late to make the changes you need to make to try and get fulfillment in life by actually acting as yourself throughout the active day to day activities that you participate in.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Don&amp;#8217;t worry about what everyone else sees, worry about what God sees, and what you see as you look into the mirror each day. Always be sure that you are looking at yourself.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50771985842</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50771985842</guid><pubDate>Sun, 19 May 2013 07:40:37 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title>Good for Absolutely Nothing</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;m not good for anything who am I kidding I can&amp;#8217;t play video games well I can&amp;#8217;t write well I can&amp;#8217;t love good enough I can&amp;#8217;t even make my friends feel better when they&amp;#8217;re down Who am I kidding&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50693563763</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50693563763</guid><pubDate>Sat, 18 May 2013 08:34:00 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title>lessons for life</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I read this today and it hit home. &lt;em&gt;When you truly trust a person without any doubts you&amp;#8217;ll get one of two results: A Person For Life. OR A Lesson For Life. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;ve had my lesson. A difficult, painful lesson. Now it&amp;#8217;s time to move on to the finding the person for life. They may not exist or they may be slow in coming. Until then, I will be the person for life for myself. And that&amp;#8217;s okay too. There are a lot of things that used to be hard for me to accept&amp;#8230;.things that I always believed to be the only way. Now not so much. Learning to be grateful for the life and friends that I have is my salvation. They have been here for me&amp;#8230;both online and in real life. Both are meaninful. Actually, sometimes I feel closer to the online friends than I do my in person friends. LOL&amp;#8230;my online friends aren&amp;#8217;t afraid to kick my butt when I need it. Their straight talk keeps me focused and I appreciate that. I am lucky to have all of them.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50693211494</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50693211494</guid><pubDate>Sat, 18 May 2013 08:28:50 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title>God Always Has Your Back</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Taking it one day at a time is really all that we can do to become the person we truly want to become! God has your back, and if you just believe, and put your hopes on His promises, there will be no day that has past that you don&amp;#8217;t feel great about, because you are on one accord!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When what is at hand, seems so perplexing that you can&amp;#8217;t even see how you will make it through the rest of the day. On the path to your destiny, you have to be relentless. You have to work harder than the day before, and you have to forget about everything that went wrong the day before.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It will be ok in the morning if you allow it to. Don&amp;#8217;t mute the rest of your life because you spoke the wrong message before, commit to consistent progression in your life, and never give up!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50689999575</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50689999575</guid><pubDate>Sat, 18 May 2013 07:40:31 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title>Removing Negative People From Your Life </title><description>&lt;p&gt;Everyone has a life full of stresses, obstacles, and constant decisions to make, and deciding if someone is helping you develop into the person that you want to become, or if that person is causing you to dissipate, or become someone that you have no desire to be.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We all have friends who influence in certain ways, but when you really want to make changes in your life, you have to commit to ridding things from your life that in no way, shape, or form, help you focus on the direction in life that you truly want to go.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Are the people in your life helping you focus on what is truly in your heart, or are they making the habits of old that you are trying to make harder to break? If they continue to help make your old habits arise in the midst of your attempted transformation, it may just be time to remove them from your lives so that you can grow to your potential.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50641066202</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50641066202</guid><pubDate>Fri, 17 May 2013 15:20:42 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item><item><title>Personal Growth</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Before you take the precious time out of your day to pass judgment on someone else, remember that in your judgment, you are sinning as well. One of the easiest things to do for many people is to point out what is wrong in other peoples lives, instead of placing the scope of judgment on your own life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Instead of worrying about how everyone else is running their race, and other people&amp;#8217;s standards, and rule systems that they may use govern their own lives, worry about what you have going on in yours instead. Not only is it difficult to focus on where you are going in life if all that you do is focus on the route of others, instead of your own, but it is also against Gods will for our lives.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So the next time you think about putting someone in their place, and telling someone how wrong they are, remember all of the times that you haven&amp;#8217;t been right as well, and instead of judging, just pray for them.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50565427579</link><guid>http://maylindaandherdays.tumblr.com/post/50565427579</guid><pubDate>Thu, 16 May 2013 15:20:19 +0700</pubDate><category>writing</category></item></channel></rss>
