Chapter 12 What happened

Chapter 12 Find me in your heart Who says life is fair? Have you ever had to say that life is not fair? Everyone wants life to be fair. I believe that even though life can be unfair, people should move on with their lives and try to make their lives better. Yes. . . Life is not fair, but people must "keep moving forward." But then, even when I always thought about that, I just can t imagine not continuing just because life is unfair. Many influential people do nothing simply because life is not fair to them. Albert Einstein had dyslexia, but because of that, he did not stop. He proved to everyone that he was smart, and he even proved the EMC square theory, something like that. Back then, I always asked why some people were born with health problems and others healthy are? Why do some people have so much luck while others seem to have none? Everyone faces things in life that they think is unfair. We compare what they have to what we have and think we ve got the short end of the stick. We can control some of life s unfair challenges while some we can t, but how we choose to handle them helps shape who we are. We all have different opinions about what we think is fair or not. Some say more is better or, more importantly, better, while others are happy with what they have and don t have. I always ask myself, "How much control do we have over fair and unfair circumstances?" Sometimes, we have simple old bad luck, and some other times, we have what we think of as amazing luck. A great example of we can t control our fate or whether something is fair or not is an article I read about the famous cyclist named Lance Armstrong. He could not control what the public or what sports officials thought about him. he couldn t stop her from being accused of taking performance-enhancing medications, and she certainly couldn t stop getting cancer. "I m not going to get involved in something, so there s aside, and it s not fair," he said. He referred to the allegations against him as unfair but other people against him classified them as unfair. What was Lance s control over that unfair incident? Life can be very hard sometimes, it has 'barriers and is not fair sometimes, but we need to know to make it worth something. By choosing to face difficult times, we can create a better life for ourselves. We find something interesting in what you re doing to make it worthwhile. We shouldn t continue to think negatively about what s ahead of us and start thinking about what we can do to make it happen more enjoyable and entertaining. Otherwise, all the time you spend thinking in life is unfair, and thinking negatively will be a wasted part of your life, and you will look back, and you have done it s more enjoyable. Comparing our lives to others can make us feel that we are not treated right, and sometimes fate can interfere and make us feel like we are the most boring person in the world. We don t always have control over unfair circumstances, but choosing to fight through these and make life worthwhile can help us overcome life s unfair challenges. We all face unfair situations in life, and how we handle them can help shape who we are. the next time you are faced with an "unfair" situation in life, what will you do to spin it? Simply because you have no obligation in life, life has no obligation to us. We cannot be fair or unfair in life, and life cannot be unfair to you. Other people can be unfair, and in every way, you can be unfair to them. If someone is fair, I would say she is fair to them is a good choice, unless the action would otherwise benefit you greatly. Because you have to get out there and kick some ass to survive, that s why. In short, life is an uncomfortable place. Nor is it a joy ride. We must continue to move. Otherwise, we have been victimized by someone else. First, even if life is unfair, you cannot approach life as unfair and win. It would be best if you always approached it as a fair game. It s just really like that. Second, you should get rid of the word 'luck from your vocabulary. In life, the word 'luck is an obscenity reserved only for the losers. And by using luck, you are making yourself a no-brainer. Nothing happens in life by default. There were also no accidents in life. Nor has anything happened by accident. Everything is fixed, either in your favor or against you. That s why you shouldn t take chances. It would be best if you didn t even gamble in life. Gamblers lose. People who gamble in life only hurt it. Gambling is not the same as risk. Risk can be reflected and planned. Gambling is not allowed. Neither success is an accident or an incident. Like everything, success must be contemplation and intention. Those words were still fresh in my mind last night. I still can not believe it. Where does that man get such courage to say that? I put my thoughts aside and started working for the job — that s what really matters. It was only seven o clock when I decided to set sail because we were now going to the place where the H&H Hotel in Makati is planned to be built. And because of the sheer excitement at the first big project, I reached the site before eight o clock. The place that welcomed me was more than I could imagine. I ve been able to see places like this, but I still can t stop myself. How much is the price of land now? How could Asher have gotten here if his dream then was to become a police officer? What does this have to do with that? And why do these thoughts about that guy keep going back into my mind? There were already a lot of people in the area when I arrived, and the team was also complete. We are just waiting for the boss. "You know, I noticed something about Alessia," Zoe said with a smile. I felt a little ashamed of what she said. "Yes, she s getting prettier!" Engineer Dionysus smiled at me. Nowadays, I am lucky to be able to be with such co-workers and friends. The sudden cough behind us seemed like a rumble of loud thunder, so we straightened up immediately, especially when we saw our boss behind us. We immediately addressed him and greeted him at the same time. "Good morning, Sir," we said simultaneously, but he only presented us with a frown. Snobbish, rude, and deceitful! The previous two hours just went into the conversation again. All that time, I was just silent. I looked at him with full attention given to the question. Only now have I seen him take this thing so seriously. Maybe he really likes what he s doing because it s easy to see if he doesn t. "Ale, he might melt." Zoe teased me and started blabbering on. That s another thing, and it s like she s just bringing back what I need to forget for a long time. I ignored her and just frowned when it was finalized that they all decided to have a group lunch. As much as I wanted to avoid him, he was so mad that the approach made me even angrier. We ate at an expensive restaurant, and it wasn t as grand as the restaurant where I saw Ashley and Asher the other day. I rolled my eyes in amazement at the different designs there. There are paintings and calligraphies on its walls. Many people were already there even though it was too early to eat. It was relaxing to look at them with their respective smiles on their lips. Sometimes I wish that, like ordinary people, I would also be able to smile for any reason because no problem was waiting for me. Hopefully, I can smile too because I have so many reasons to do that. "I thought we would all work together, but we are not properly introduced. I am Asher Felix, I will be in charge of this project, so I hope we can all come to an agreement to make the hotel better." I don t know if I m assuming again, but I saw him smiling, looking at me. That didn t help. Instead, my blood pressure rose even faster. "I am Engr. Dionysus, Sir. This is my team, and they usually call me Engineer Diony." Asher nodded at what he heard, then waited again for the next one. "Sir, I am Engr. Tom Santos. " "Engr. Lyn Zarte, Sir." "Engr. Zoe, Mr. Felix." I forced myself to focus on something else to forget what was happening. If I had just dreamed of it, I would really force myself not to go to sleep. Eventually, after some swearing inside, I could do nothing but speak. My co-workers are even waiting for me to say anything. "Engineer Alessia Cora," I blurted. "Ah. . . Engr," he nodded at what I said and realized maybe he might be insulting me because of the tone of his speech. When he smiled again, I almost exploded with annoyance. "Alright, I m outta here." I stood up, seemingly pissed off at what was happening. "Engineer!" I even heard Engineer Diony called me, but I ignored that. I will receive a long sermon on my return, but I also don t know any other way if I don't leave. "Please just call me after lunch break!" I walked quickly, and I no longer knew it was happening to me. I know it s wrong, but I don t know how to avoid it. After I left there I looked for a cafe to eat. I still had to go back before one o clock and accept the slap of truth with that man. And it must be true. Just like what they always say, ''Life is a bitch, until you die. The universe is like a magic trick because of the questions and beliefs that arise when something is presented to people that are not in line with their beliefs about reality and what can and cannot happen. It causes many reactions. The universe, its extent, how it was created, and why we are part of it amazed and amazed many people who are constantly searching for answers. Others believe they have the answers and try to persuade people to understand their point of view. Others don t even think about it. When witnessing the tricks of magicians, most people say, "Wow, that s amazing." the thought, question or statement that comes next is what I see that has made the universe a magic trick. Those words could be, "He must have magical powers," or "I knew it was a trick, fun to watch and now I m going to do something else," or "I know it s a trick, I want to find out how it s done, " or" He can t afford to fool me, I know how he did it, listen and I ll tell you how." The people who immediately assume that the mage actually has magical powers just by trusting what they see are the people I will coin as unrevealed who usually know the "truth." A good example is small children. When attending a magic show, they may know they can t do what they just saw, but believe that the person performing for them can somehow. They may not ask how they were deceived at all. Their connection to reality will be made when someone tells them it is a trick. Then the child will ask how it was done. They may or may not be satisfied with the response they received. They will have a change of character at this point. Those who know and accept them where cheated, happy that they were entertained, and went into their business without wondering how the people I classify as manufacturers. I think most people in the world are manufacturers. These are the people who keep up with doing it and who, without ever trying to find solutions to life s unanswered questions. I was devastated to think how hard it was for me—to face the thing I preferred to run and avoid. . . five years ago.
