About Me

My photo
..I am not an accident.. I wasn't created by mistake nor by accident.. I was made by a reason and with a purpose. God made me with His purpose and by His purpose. He made me to serve Him with all my heart and to praise and worship Him. I am but a reflection of His glory. I'm so special and unique because I was made by His own image.

...HARSH DAY!!!

...sometimes, people got tired especially when bombarded with so many duties and responsibilities...
...Sometimes, I asked myself, 'Am I a servant that I need to follow orders?'.... Sometimes, I felt down and tired....But when shall I be stronger? Will it be the next week? or the next year? Will it be when I have no strength to use in order for me to fathom all the wiles of being coward? When will it be? Please help me answer all these freaking questions...

Is This a Wonderful Day?

..Next week will be a hard and busy days for me...

This day, i wasn't able to rest my mind from thinking of what to do enable for me to finish all my duties and responsibilities. I have so many things to do. Not even finish one duty, another responsibilities come in. What am I going to do? I can't manage my time...I'm confused on what to do first...When can I shout for joy that THIS IS A WONDERFUL DAY!!!!.... Well, I'm looking forward for that day to come!!!...

....Maybe, I'll just put aside all my worries and will better to have faith that all of this hard days are just one of God's wiles in order for Him to help me become a stronger one....Life is too short...I must endure all of this and must ENJOY!!!!

Erickson's Eight Stages


TRUST VS. MISTRUST
- infants learn to trust that their needs will be met by the world, especially by their mother; if not, mistrust develops.

AUTONOMY VS. SHAME AND DOUBT
- children learn to exercise will, to make choices, to control themselves; if not, they become uncertain and doubt that they can do things by themselves.

INITIATIVE VS. GUILT
- children learn to initiate activities and enjoy their accomplishments, acquiring directions and purpose; if they are not allowed initiative, they feel guilty for their attempts at independence.

INDUSTRY VS. INFERIORITY
- children develop a sense of industry and curiosity and are eager to learn; if not, they feel inferior and lose interest in the tasks before them.

IDENTITY VS. ROLE CONFUSION
- adolescents come to see themselves as unique and integrated persons with an ideology; if not, they become confused about what they want out of life.

INTIMACY VS. ISOLATION
- young people become able to commit themselves to another person; if not, they develop a sense of isolation and feel they have no one in the world but themselves.

GENERATIVITY VS. STAGNATION
- adults are willing to have and care for children, to devote themselves to their work and the common good; if not, they become self-centered and inactive.

EGO INTEGRITY VS. DESPAIR
- older people enter a period of reflection, becoming assured that their lives have been meaningful, and they grow ready to face death with acceptance and dignity; if not, they despair for their unaccomplished goals, failures, and ill-spent lives.
